KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Bankstown

  • Driving through Australia is a road-trippers dream. With vast open road stretches and wonderful scenery wherever you look, booking a car hire in Bankstown is the start of a successful and exciting mobile holiday. Load up the car, pack some snacks and venture 2 hours out of Bankstown to the north to visit Hunters Valley, famous for hilly hikes, or head south to Jervis Bay, for some fun in the sun on this beautiful beach.
  • Bankstown Airport (BWU) is an airport and business park located in the City of Canterbury, in Bankstown, which can be found around 26 km from Sydney. There are no car hire companies located directly at the airport; however, there are around six major car hire companies that can be found on Canterbury Road, just a few minutes from the airport. If you book a car hire in Bankstown and want to collect it as you arrive, your car hire company will likely meet you in your hire car at the airport as you arrive; arrange this with them prior.
  • Driving in a Bankstown car hire will be a pleasure. The roads are well maintained and are laid out well, so they’re easy to navigate and understand. People on the roads generally follow the rules, which makes traffic flow in an organised manner. You'll also find the traffic lights are quick to change, so there isn't much holding up the flow of traffic. During the day, you can keep your eyes open for cyclists on the roads; however, most roads do have dedicated cyclist lanes.
  • Traffic in Bankstown is a bit more congested than in some other Australian cities. You'll find that the M5 faces heavier traffic during morning and evening work rush hours. The M5 is also used to connect the city centre to the airport, so traffic on the road starts as early as 06:00 and only lets up around 10:00. Stacey Street is another road to be avoided during peak traffic times, as getting stuck on this road can increase your travel time by at least 15min.
  • Economy rental cars in Bankstown are around 70% cheaper than other car types, on average
