The rental store is a bit away from Gold Coast Airport, about 2KM. It's not within the airport grounds or nearby, but rather in Tweed Heads. You can call the rental company for a free shuttle service, but their staff only speak English. However, you can contact QEEQ customer service for help to notify the rental company. The shuttle pick-up point is located on the left side outside the Gold Coast Domestic Terminal, towards the International Terminal, near the airport bus (X-BUS) express stop. We had 2 other groups with us going to the rental company. At the store, staff handled the rental procedures, and you need to pay for an electronic tag (for automatic tolls on highways).
I do not recommend this car rental company because their pick-up location is not at the airport. You need to take the company's shuttle to a place several kilometers away to pick up and return the car. Other car rental companies have pick-up and drop-off spots at the airport, which means this one delays your trip by at least 40 minutes. Moreover, the shuttle back to the airport does not leave immediately but waits for more passengers. This caused me to miss my tax refund at the airport, which was really a waste.
This company is not large, but the staff and vehicle options are very satisfactory and feel like great value. For parents looking to rent a car and need safety seats or boosters, I recommend the Gold Coast branch which offers safety seats for rent at a reasonable price.

Very good overall except the pick up and drop off location is far away from airport and need to wait for shuttle bus to transport to and from the airport.
The car condition is excellent.
