Reviews of Scotties Rentals

K. K.

Excellent, friendly and personal service. Keith went above and beyond to accommodate my van pick up and drop off time. I relocated from Wellington to Auckland using a cargo van and Scotties was by far the most economical hire company to go with - the only one I've seen that offers 150km free per day. The cargo van was in great condition and drove well. Stress-free and hassle free hire all around! I will definitely hire from Scotties Rentals again, whether that's for a van, truck or a car. Highly recommend A++++

M. &. S. P.

We hired a car for a period of over 10 days. Price was very competitive. The vehicle we received was clean and tidy. Lovely staff to deal with. A+++

S. K.

Keith from Scotties Rentals is definitely a glass-half-full person. When we first called him in a bind having been let down by another company, he’d already shut up shop for the day and was halfway home but he came back, opened the office and his systems and had us up and running in no time and at a fair price. That’s called Service Over and Above The Call at a time when it is most appreciated. I feel confident in recommending Scotties unreservedly to any rentals customer. Kind regards Steve Kennedy

I had booked online Toyota Rav 7 days and got an amazing savings. Scotties Rentals communication via email and mobile leading up to my arrival to Queenstown was on point. They recommended I did online check in which was an easy process and quick and fast hand over. The vehicle was good only negative the back right wheel was making whining noises when driving but did the job. Amy and Annie were very efficient and made the hand over and return effortless. I will be returning in near future and as long as the deals are good I will rent another vehicle through Scotties again. Thank you for making my holiday a good 1 guys🙏 Joe

C. S.

Scotties communication prior to rental was excellent. We hired the car during a difficult period of the Covid pandemic. Scotties went out of their way to help us with luggage storage while on a bike tour and their contactless pick up and drop off worked like clockwork giving us easy access to airport. Thank you Scotties

M. C.

Booking a car with Scotties was cheap and easy. I recommend the Queenstown office that I used. Cristian was helpful and the customer service was good. The only thing to improve would probably be making so that every single office has got their own phone number as well as the central branch's one in AKL. That way it would probably be easier to contact the regional office directly :-)

B. M.

I was very impressed with Scotties from the first phone call to when I was dropped off at the Queenstown airport. The car was in immaculate condition and drove beautifully. First class service from everyone with whom I had communication. I will certainly use Scotties again, and will be recommending them to anyone who asks about my trip and rental experience.

J.

So appreciated that Scotties meet us at airport and dropped car directly to us and we were able to do the same when leaving from the airport. Couldn’t have been easier. Had a cell phone number and they were responsive.

K. R.

Great service. Prompt replies and clear information and instructions. Made it very easy to deal with. Good rates for a good car that was all we needed. James was very friendly and the team here do a great job. Bought them a box of chocolates because they deserved them.

T. B.

We rented a Van in Auckland and returned it in Queenstown almost 3 weeks later. Yes it took a trip on the interisland ferry. A great trip of a beautiful country. Do it by car and take the time to see all of the sites. Picked up at the airport in North Island. Dropped at the exit airport what could be better.

S.

Best vehicle rental in Queenstown the van was clean inside and outside great staff. Thank you Amy and Happy New year to you and The Team.

N.

Brilliant and easy service, would highly recommend. Great value for money and they even came back to the airport when my son realised he had left his IPad in the car seat pocket

A. M.

Booked a car with a friend - reservation was easy and pick up from the airport was great (approx 5 minute drive from Auckland Airport). Got the car as promised (a later model Toyota Corolla), however a few things needed replacing... tyres and windscreen wiper blades. Overall we were happy and would use again. Car had a few bumps and scratches but still fine.

Z. Q.

The owner was pretty cool. Helped us find a trailer hitch that fit the same size as our trailer. Was accommodating regarding pick up and drop off time. Really reasonable price. The car was good mechanically but had a few superficial things worn out, but we also had asked for the cheapest car he had so there's no real complaint there. Pretty good experience, nice guy, nice business.

S.

Rented in gorgeous Queenstown. Good price compared to others. Excellent after hours pick up and drop off in the silly season. It was very easy and straightforward despite not seeing anyone. Thanks guys.

P.

Super friendly and helpful. Best rental car company I have ever dealt with.

T.

Excellent service picked us up from the airport. Great family vehicle.

C. P.

Friendly staff and pick up service from airport. Reasonable price if you don't really need latest model cars. Flexible return options such as drop off at hotel near to Auckland airport. Thanks for your service

G. T.

Very nice staff, our rental was a van that we kept for a month (we named it Bilbo) and brought us everywhere with no problem! We've got picked up at the airport on our arrival and dropped off at the hostel for our last night in NZ, so thank you!!

B.

Great company to deal with. Car delivered to Hotel. Returned to airport from Scotties depot. Highly recommend.

Y.

Cheap and reliable. Van was ready on time and it got the job done. Hired a cargo van for a day.

D. L.

I got a great price for a monthly rental and I was not expecting a "nice" car. The car itself definitely had a few scratches, dents, 220k+ KMs, but was clean and perfectly reliable which was all I needed!! Service was great from the Scotties team.

t. h.

Enjoyed leasing from them on a long term basis. Worked well for us and we had no issues with my vehicle. Generously, we got a free upgrade the last months. Very satisfied. I like the owner, he is a good guy.

E.

Very easy experience, pick up at the airport, a great little car with no troubles.

A. N.

I thought it was the best car rental experience we've had so far in NZ - very patient, kind, relatable, really lovely to deal with! I didn't even know of this company before, but I'll look it up everytime we need to hire a car from now on.

A.

Great friendly service from Muhammad at the Auckland Branch. The minivan we hired was clean and tidy and perfect for our travel purposes. Highly Recommend Scotties again.

M. C.

Excellent excellent service and customer relationship. Our car was a hybrid so it was very economical with fuel. Cars are collected from the company with quarter tank of fuel & are to be returned with the same amount of fuel. I did find it tricky to gauge fuel usage so the next person to hire our car got half a tank of fuel free - lucky them! It was not a perfect looking vehicle with scratches here & there and cobwebs on the exterior mirrors but it was a good deal cheaper than other rental companies and didn't affect car performance! I would definitely hire from them again.

G. S.

Great rental truck for what we paid. Comparing to other market, this was one of the cheapest! Friendly service and flexible with your needs. Thanks team!

J. B.

Couldn't recommend Scotties enough. We rented a car twice and didn't have any problems. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. We dealt with Keith and he was brilliant. Would definitely be using them again. Thank you for a great experience.

B. H.

at very short notice, on a very busy holiday long weekend, Scottie's was the only company in the whole of New Zealand that took the time to help and accommodate us... love the service, especially by James in Christchurch and Shalni at Auckland Airport!!! you guys really are super heroes 🙂

M. E.

We had excellent service from this company and will certainly use them again. The car, although a bit older, went really well and was very good value for money.

S. R.

Great service! Fast communication, easy pick up and drop off, flexible times, friendly staff and it did the job!

D. G.

For the price, Scottie's was a good move at about half the cost of on-airport services, which over a long trip can add up. For the price, it's a good value, and worth the extra hassle. To Scottie's credit, my experience was super honest and straightforward: no hard sells for add-on insurance, no bogus damage claims for pre-existing damage (which Enterprise has tried to do to me before), an easy return trip to the airport, and they even remind you to pay any traffic tolls or tickets so they don't have to charge you admin costs - whereas Enterprise loves to tack on bogus admin fees to those. They even encourage you to take your own photos when getting the car. So good on Scottie's for running an honest operation. However, it's not perfect. It took about an hour for us to get from the airport to Scottie's as no one was answering the phone on repeated attempts. Also, we booked through Economy rent-a-car, not through Scottie's directly, and were not given the freephone number Scotties - but got it from the airport help desk (and, to be honest, didn't even know we had a car at Scottie's, thinking it was instead Economy!). When we did get through though, they sent the van quickly and it was mostly an easy transfer. The van could use a magnetic slap-on sign (or even a piece of paper on the dash) though, as right now there is no insignia on it so you don't know which van is Scottie's. Check-out will also be longer than the on-airport lots assuming you're a rewards member with any of them. The car you'll get is older with more miles (we had 130k on ours) and probably some damage, but also had some premium options like a wood and leather steering wheel which you'd never see on-airport. Returning the car was super simple and easy. I'd use Scottie's again.

s. m.

Brilliant service from start to finish; easy to book, great car hire price, very friendly & helpful staff, only 5 mins or so shuttle ride to airport terminals. Will definitely use again next time we are in NZ. Thanks!

D.

Edited this review: originally had some misfortune when the quote and the payment for booking were not matching - meaning I paid approx $100NZD more than quoted. I attempted to sort it out at the Auckland City depot but the manager was rude and dismissive. Fast forward a few months later, Annie the owner of the business phoned me to follow up on the feedback and much to my surprise, Annie looked into the issue and found I was correct and refunded the difference. I thought her integrity was worthy of an edit of the review. Long story short, if you think you're getting ripped off, reach out to the owner instead who is much more rational.

C. B.

I rented a Toyota Tarago type vehicle for about a month through Scotties - it was about $2k cheaper than any of the major car hire companies. We arrived into Auckland late at night and I grabbed an $8 uber to their offices where the car was waiting. The vehicle was great, not brand new but we didn't need that. Took us reliably round the North island with no dramas. I returned the car outside office hours and managed to take the keys with me back to Australia by accident... Despite the fact that they didn't have a spare set in Auckland and it took a while for me to get them back to them via post over the holiday break they didn't make a fuss. If you're looking for a reliable, easy rental I would 10/10 recommend the guys at Scotties. Cheers Chris

C.

The service is very good and it is easy to pick up the car and return. Condition of car is also nice, although not very new.

P. E.

They're a little company, and were a bit delayed picking us up from the airport. But overall the car (Nissan Tiida) was pretty reliable through most of the south and north islands (hills and mountains abound). Affordable rate and unlimited mileage was great.

B.

Great, easy to work with, car rental company. Still a car rental company. They have many policies in place to protect them, which is totally understandable. Location isn't the best. They send a shuttle to the airport to bring you to their office which is tucked away behind some large industrial warehouses. Still had a great experience with them!

A. A.

The website was easy to use. Email response was clear and concise. The car was clean. In person the staff were friendly, professional and helpful. I would certainly use them again.

K. W.

Hands down the best cheapest, convenient Car Rental near the Airport with competitive insurance options to cover you for the trip and a range of vehicles to suit! I loved the Tiida and it did great touring around New Zealand! Will definitely use & recommend Scotties if you’re after an A-B vehicle.

J. S.

Everything about my interactions with Scotties was wonderful! The car was great and safe and very well priced. I will definitely be using them again when I'm back in the area!! Thanks so much again everyone at Scotties Rentals!!

C. C.

I booked a car for my son but gave the wrong pick up date the 20th instead of the 21st. Dec. A lovely lady who I rang twice on the 21st was so helpful and managed to get my son a car. I will be booking cars and recommending this place from now on. Thank you so much. I wish iremembered her name.

T. T.

Not one of the big companies. Customer service was awesome, car was reliable. They were helpful with our drop off as well. Will be using them again when I go to South Island

ש. כ.

Just got the car back after two weeks of travelling. Had a Nissan Tiida that did a great job with helping me exploring the north island! Scotties are great, very friendly and helpful! Corry is the best, helped me with everything I needed from day 1!! :)

H.

Extremely helpful and friendly, and was a refreshing change from the corporate rentals I normally chose. Great price, quick attentive service, top Kiwi company give them a go 10/10

T. P.

I'll pay a little more elsewhere to not drive a 13 year old car. When I arrived the staff were complaining about existing customers. The car had about 4/7 worth of petrol when handed to me. But, it was very cheap.

L.

These guys were awsome!! Cheap and reliable no issues what so ever! They made a very stressful time so much easier!

B.

Very friendly and helpful! The car was what i paid for. A bit older and looking a bit beaten, but it brought us save all over the Island and for the Pruce paid i really cant complain!

L.

Great service lovely Shania collected us from airport.great car fuel efficient,easy to drive.couldnt fault them definitely use again.

G.

The scottie that looked after us was super cool. Quick and easy service, no hassles. Recommend

S.

Good experience, the only downfall was that we couldn't get reimbursed for returning early, but they did allows us to use the 4 days we didn't use as credit! So that was pretty awesome!

P.

Was great, van did the job and the staff were great as well :)

A.

The staff were friendly and the price was the best we found in Auckland. It took a while to get all the paperwork done, but other than that things were fine.

A.

Inexpensive and good. Car was a bit older and the shuttle from the airport was a bit confusing, but I like that they are reasonable and accommodating.
