About Jucy
JUCY is a New Zealand rental company best known for its bright green and purple campervans. The core product is a small campervan that sleeps two, has a basic kitchen in the back and is compact enough to drive and park like a normal car, which is exactly what most people want for a road trip on either side of the Tasman.
It also rents ordinary cars, and larger motorhomes sit under the group's other brands. The fleet skews towards the budget and mid range rather than luxury, which is the point.
What they offer
- Compact two berth campervans with a kitchen
- Larger campers for families and groups
- Standard car hire
- One way rentals between branches
- Branches at major airports in New Zealand and Australia
- Optional extras like bedding, chairs and GPS
How to book with Jucy
- Pick up and drop off branches first, one way trips cost more but save backtracking
- Choose the van size honestly, the small ones are easier to drive but tight for four
- Read what is included, bedding and camp chairs are often extras rather than standard
- Book early for December and January, the fleet sells out across both countries
Good to know
Can I park a JUCY van anywhere overnight?
No. Freedom camping rules in New Zealand depend on whether the vehicle is certified self contained, and councils enforce it. Check the rules for each area and the certification of the specific van.
Do I need a special licence?
For the campervans, a normal car licence is enough in both countries.
What is the difference between JUCY and Star RV?
Same wider group, different tiers. JUCY is the budget and mid range option, Star RV is the premium motorhome end.
Is insurance included?
Basic cover is included with an excess, and you can reduce that excess by paying more per day. Compare that against your own travel insurance before buying at the counter.
