Car Seats for Hire in Queenstown
Queenstown Rental Car Booking
We can liaise with your Queenstown rental car hire company to deliver your hire car seat prior to your arrival and collect after your departure. Your car seat will be installed by a Car Restraint Technician. Please note we only hire within the Queenstown area. You CANNOT return our hire products to locations (airports) outside of Queenstown.
Same day bookings are subject to availability and fitting in with our daily schedule. We are out and about delivering pre booked items during the day. Please phone to make an appointment.
Collect From Us
You are also welcome to collect from us. We are located approximately 1 km from Queenstown airport. If someone is meeting you at the airport, they can come to us on the way and we will install the car seat for them.
Car Seat Selection
Check out our Queenstown car seat hire options. Choose from our extensive range to suit your child's needs. If you're not sure which car seat hire to book just select the one you think is best and leave a note on the booking form. Our Child Restraint Technicians will review all bookings and cross reference against the information provided. Tots on Tour will contact you if the selected car seat hire is not appropriate for your child's, age, weight, height and torso measurement. We recommend children rear face for as long as possible, preferably up to two years of age. The rear facing car seat capacity varies based on weight and height. If you wish to rear face beyond two years we recommend the Infasecure Emperor Nexus or the Diono range. Please refer to our FAQs for further information on car seat hire in Queenstown.
FAQs
Can you install my car seat hire for me?
Yes. The safety of your child is of utmost importance to us. We prefer to install child restraints whenever possible. Know your child is safe by having the restraint fitted by a Tots on Tour Registered Child Restraint technician.
Can you deliver to Queenstown Airport?
We can deliver to your rental car company at Queenstown Airport or a rental car company with a depot near Queenstown Airport. We cannot deliver to private vehicles at Queenstown Airport or rental car companies who do not have a depot. We will deliver before your arrival at a time that fits in with our daily schedule.
How much does Delivery and Collection cost?
Please refer to our Delivery and Collection Zones 1 to 5 for current prices. Zone 1 is Queenstown Airport. This is a flat fee and covers both Delivery & Collection to and from your rental vehicle (hire items other than car restraints will need to be returned to us). For Zones 2 to 5 you will need to book both Delivery and Collection separately.
Can someone else collect my car seat hire & how long will it take?
Yes. You will need to let us know what time they wish to collect and provide their mobile phone number. Allow 5 to 10 minutes for installation of up to two car seats. Allow 15 to 20 minutes for installing three car seats. The time it takes will depend on your vehicle and if the seats are to be installed three across.
Are you based at Queenstown Airport?
No. We are very close though. We are located approximately 1 km away from Queenstown Airport at 3 Kawarau Place.
What measurements do you need for car seat hire?
We need to know the age, weight & height of your child. We also need their torso measurement so we can set up the harness correctly. This diagram below shows the best way to measure. If you book in advance we will contact you nearer your booking for updated measurements. We still need measurements at time of booking to make sure the correct seat has been selected.
