Does anyone know where you can hire one of these????? Vic. preferably.
Bro and SIL are doing the Simpson with their tribe and don't want to buy (cannot justify the annual use of one).
Any ideas????
TIA gang.

They have thought about a CT (were going to borrow
mine) but they don't want to tow one across the Simpson.

Good call - bad drivers towing across the Simpson destroys the track for the rest of us. Towing across the Simpson should be stopped.

try shippshape.com.au
they have a rental service - never used them but came across the site when the folks were looking to buy a roof top tent.

I believe they rent them from ARB in Dandenong. I was speaking with a company, whom I can't recall, at the Wandin Field day, and they said ARB rent out their roof top tents. Would be worth a call anyway.
Should be nice and close to you too...

Ballarat and ARB
Ballarat don't loan roof tops only CT's. BTW, I'll pop over some time..............

Hi, search the POST ID 33505 and scroll towards the end and take a look at the two bedroom toptent! Obviously it was a hire job & I'm pretty sure it had NSW plates.
Thankx to Derek for submitting (sneak) pics for me...must get time to them on 'main page'!

Try this one, can pick up from
melbourne. Not sure if they hire out just the roof top tents or the whole 4x4 and tent package.

here`s another one. I know they are in
Perth, but they may have an outlet or pick up point in Vic.
