New Zealand Motor Home Rental

travelling independently at your own pace

Travelling in a New Zealand motor home rental Auckland region, North Island and or South Island offers the highest comfort while discovering the country’s natural beauty. A mobile accommodation carrying all that is needed is a great home away from home. It makes staying even in most basic camping facilities luxurious.

In peak seasons a New Zealand motor home rental gives more freedom of choice to stay where and when you want since powered sites are often easier available. Yet it doesn’t hurt especially around Christmas until the second week in February to arrange your stay ahead.

The driving matrix in the back of our physical map of New Zealand helps a lot to estimate where we would be for the night. Though it happens sometimes that the travel time is underestimated.The roads are in great condition yet it does often take a little longer than anticipated to reach your destination. Peacefully meandering roads in hilly regions reveal beautiful sights and let drivers slow down and take their time on many occasions. Opposing the straight motorways and highways you may be used to which are designed just to overcome the distance. So taking a bit more time into account when planning the daily route might be a good idea.

Staying in and around Auckland

Staying overnight in one of Auckland’s RegionalParks is organized by DOC (Department of Conservation) and ARC (Auckland Regional Council). The latter ones require an SCC for a maximum of two subsequent nights on one car park. For motor home traveller apply the same rules as for campers booking is essential. The advantage of these places is clearly their privileged location embedded in nature, surrounded by picturesque view, or blessed with direct beach access.

Some rental services grant with their SelfContainment Certificate (SCC) in a New Zealand motor home rental independence of dump station and power supply for up to three days. Results are reached with dual battery system or solar power and separate fresh and waste water tanks for kitchen, toilet, and shower. Time and solutions may vary between providers and therefore need checking on their websites.

The following maps show where they are situated and the links lead to essential information about NZ camping in parkland and holiday parks. A private organisation www.nativeparks.co.nz promotes via membership free access to motor home travellers on private land. On private land means a smaller facility and private contact with the owner to experience country and its people on a personal level. Destinations are spread all over the country. To take part search for availability, compare prices, and book a motor home that suits your needs and budget.

General rules on New Zealand motor home rental

During peak season between November and February the rental prices reach their summit. The lowest charges apply between May and September. Sometimes it even makes a difference from where the journey starts and whether the journey goes from North Island to South Island or vice versa. Compare New Zealand motor home rental companies and starting points.

SCC required stays have in common

Something these overnight stays have in common is their lack of power supply and disposal of wastewater or rubbish. The New Zealand care code asks to take waste with you to leave the place as you would like to find it.
