JUCY Sydney location

Our JUCY Sydney branch is conveniently located near the Sydney Airport. Simply take a ride-share or taxi straight from the airport, catch public transport or grab a ride from a mate directly to our branch. 

Our Sydney branch is open daily from 9am until 3pm Monday to Friday and 9am until 2pm on Saturday and Sunday. You can collect or return your JUCY campervan or motorhome during our opening hours only.  

Our Sydney branch has everything you need to kickstart your adventure with comfy seating, luggage storage, toilets, free Wi-Fi, shared pantry and friendly crew ready to help. 

The JUCY Sydney branch is about a 15-minute drive from Sydney Airport and around 30 minutes from the city centre (traffic depending). Whether you’re heading north to the Central Coast, south to the Royal National Park, or west to the Blue Mountains, Sydney is the perfect starting point for your New South Wales road trip! 

Sydney is the perfect launchpad for New South Wales adventures! Drive north to the beaches and national parks of the Central Coast, head south to the Royal National Park and Jervis Bay, or venture west to the Blue Mountains for breathtaking scenery and hiking trails. Backpacker-friendly destinations like Bondi, Byron Bay, Newcastle, and the coastal towns along the Pacific Highway are also within reach, making it easy to mix adventure, surf, and social vibes on your road trip with JUCY! The perfect solution to your longer road-trip or weekend getaway cravings.

You bet! Here at JUCY, we've got you covered with our one-way campervan rentals from Sydney. That means you can grab your campervan in one spot and leave it in another — we're all about making things easy for you! It's the perfect choice if you're planning a road trip with a start and end point that aren't the same. Just a heads-up, though: there might be some extra fees involved! 

Sydney is the perfect hub for both quick escapes and big coast-to-coast adventures. Head north to Brisbane or the Gold Coast for sunshine, beaches and theme-park energy, or stop in Byron Bay on the way for chilled surf vibes and lighthouse views. Travelling south will take you to Melbourne, with its laneways, galleries and world-class food scene. And if you’re dreaming of reef and rainforest, keep going all the way to Cairns for tropical adventures and Great Barrier Reef magic. From laid-back coastal towns to major cities and far-north tropics, Sydney is a launchpad to some of Australia’s most iconic travel routes.
