Kia ora all!
Welcome back for 2026.
As we head into another semester commencement next week, we’d like to share a few friendly reminders to help keep our vehicle booking system running smoothly:
Key Reminders
- Vehicle Procedures & Policy
Please familiarise yourself with the Vehicle Procedures and Policy documents located at the bottom of the booking page. By submitting a booking, you confirm that you have read and understood both documents.
- Courtesy with Return Times
When booking a vehicle, ensure it is returned on or before the scheduled time. Many bookings are back‑to‑back or early morning, and delays impact other users. If you expect to be late, please contact our office before your return time.
- Glove Box Guide
Take a moment to familiarise yourself with the Vehicle Hire Guide located in the glove box.
- Accidents or Damage
Any accident or damage—no matter how minor—must be reported to the office as soon as it occurs.
- Incorrect Fuel Fill-Ups
If the wrong fuel is accidentally used, do not start the vehicle. Contact the office immediately and we will guide you through the next steps.
- Bookings Must Be Made by the Driver
Fleet & Logistics staff cannot make bookings on behalf of third parties. All bookings must be made under the name of the person who will be driving, with the correct licence uploaded.
- No Block Booking Under One Name
Please do not block-book vehicles in advance under a single person’s name for departmental use. If this occurs, you will be asked to rebook under the actual drivers’ names.
- Traffic infringements
A reminder, that any traffic infringement notices are payable by the driver – Unitec does not pay or reimburse infringement notices under any circumstances.
Wishing you all safe and happy driving for 2026.
