Frequently Asked Questions

Can you sleep anywhere in a campervan in New Zealand? Is freedom camping allowed?

Freedom camping, or the ability to sleep in your campervan in New Zealand, is allowed but heavily regulated by local councils. It is essential to know the specific rules of the region you’re visiting before settling in for the night. The Department of Conservation (DOC) also maintains a network of campervan- and motorhome-friendly campsites across the country for responsible self-sufficient camping.

These DOC sites typically provide basic amenities, so campers must dispose of waste properly, respect the environment, and follow local by-laws.

For a more comfortable experience, consider campgrounds designed for campervans and motorhomes. They often have power and water hookups (so you can use your fridge, appliances, shower, etc.), dump stations for waste, and sometimes facilities like swimming pools or playgrounds.

When planning your trip, research local camping regulations and choose campgrounds or sites that suit your needs. That way you enjoy New Zealand’s beauty while camping responsibly and sustainably.

Does my campervan rental come with unlimited mileage?

Yes, unlimited kilometres are generally included for standard vehicle rentals in New Zealand. The comparison tool will show you whether your preferred vehicle has unlimited or restricted kilometres.

Note: policies vary from supplier to supplier. Always check the T&Cs for your rental.

Saving Tips

How to find a cheaper campervan rental in NZ?

Be flexible

The price depends on several factors such as travel dates, size of the motorhome, age of the vehicle, or pickup location. Being flexible on any of these may help you find cheaper offers.

Compare

Simply comparing competing campervan hire companies is often the best way to get a lower price. Use Camper Champ to compare prices across multiple suppliers.

Book early

Some of the best deals are available early in the season. Book your motorhome rental well in advance and you could save $100s compared to last minute bookings.
