Rent with Thrifty and reduce your impact onNew Zealand’s environment while you drive.

 

Carbon offsetting and environmental sustainability together represent the latest megatrend to hit the world!Reducing your carbon footprint in an effort to reduce the impact of Global warming is not something that’s just nice to do, it’s vitally important to the future of the planet.


As a New Zealand owned and operated company, Thrifty New Zealand cares about our environment and our impact on it for future generations.  Car Rental is ‘a dirty business’.  Vehicle emissions have an enormously negative effect on our air quality and we want to do our bit to minimise this.  Thrifty New Zealand has recently developed an environmental sustainability and carbon neutrality plan so that Thrifty can be seen to be the leaders in cleaning up our business.

 

The relationship with GreenFleet enables us to encourage more efficient travel behaviour and provide a carbon offsetting service for the vehicle emissions created during your hire. For a small additional daily charge you can now offset your emissions and contribute to the re-planting and re-greening of New Zealand.


By choosing this ‘carbon neutral car rental’ option exclusively available through Thrifty New Zealand, you can drive with a clear conscience, knowing that one tree will be planted by Thrifty through GreenFleet for every 600km you travel in a Thrifty rental car.


Offset your carbon emissions at the counter when picking up your vehicle, by simply asking one of our Reservations agents when booking over the phone or you can choose to do so when making a booking online
