It’s possible to cut travel costs and enjoy driving free rental cars and campervans in New Zealand by checking out the online transfer deals. Most of the time drivers also receive a free tank of petrol! How does this work? Rental car companies need to reposition their fleet for new hires and usually spend large amounts of money to do this using trucks for transportation. Having a free driver return the car to its home base is a win-win – for the traveller and the rental company, and it works well when combined with a cheap one-way flight.
