At Spaceships Rentals, we’re always listening to your feedback and striving to make your travel experience as smooth and worry-free as possible. That’s why we’ve updated our insurance options per 1 December 2025 to give you more flexibility, better coverage, and greater peace of mind on your adventures.

Simplified and Transparent Options
We’ve streamlined our insurance levels to make it easier for you to choose the coverage that best suits your needs:
Basic Insurance: Included with all Spaceships Campervans, for budget-conscious travellers that don’t mind the bond to pay for damages or a Vehicle Write-Off Fee.
Partial Insurance: A balanced option with a lower bond and reduced liability.
Stress-Free Insurance: Our most comprehensive coverage, now with more benefits included. It’s the best insurance option for complete peace of mind on your road trip in New Zealand.
Even More Comprehensive Coverage in Stress-Free
We’ve expanded the Stress-Free option to include even more protections, so you can focus on enjoying your journey:
Vehicle Towing or Salvage: Now covered, ensuring you’re never left stranded after an accident.
Single Vehicle Accidents & Rollover: Full coverage, so you’re protected even in unexpected situations.
Enhanced Glass and Exterior Coverage: Unlimited windscreen chips, one windscreen replacement, side mirrors, and exterior panels (dents and scratches) are all included.
Underbody and Tyre Protection: Travel with confidence, knowing you’re covered for damage to the underbody and tyres.
Gravel Road Cover: Explore more freely with coverage for gravel roads (excluding restricted roads).
Reduced Financial Risk
No Bond with Stress-Free: Enjoy your trip without worrying about a frozen bond on your credit card.
Lower Liability: With Stress-Free, your liability for vehicle write-offs is $0, compared to up to $18,000 with Basic insurance.
No Accident Administration Fee: Stress-Free customers pay nothing extra in case of an accident.
Clearer Terms and Conditions: We’ve made our terms more transparent, so you know exactly what’s covered and what’s not.
More Value for Your Money
Partial Insurance: Reduced bond ($3,000 instead of $5,000 on Basic) and lower liability for vehicle write-offs (up to $9,000).
Stress-Free: For just $35 per day (capped at 50 days), you get complete protection for your entire trip, no bond, no liability, and no extra fees. Even on longer road trips, you’ll never pay for more than 50 days of Stress-Free Insurance, no matter how long your adventure lasts.
