Can anyone point me to a local car rental company that would allow pick up at Brisbane (preferably the airport) and drop off in/near Rockhampton (Avis is a no go, so I'm guessing it's that way with the other bigs)? Many thanks, J-man.

I tried to do something like that a couple of years ago, and the fee for the one-way dropoff was several times the rental charge (something like USD 600).

Try all of them:
Hertz (www.hertz.com.au)
Budget (http://www.budget.com.au/)
Thrifty (http://www.thrifty.com.au/)
Europecar (http://www.deltaeuropcar.com.au/)
Also try Stand by cars (http://www.standbycars.com.au/). Some good deals at times
Hertz Rockhampton is company owned, not a franchaise. I have had one way rentals from them before

Hi!
Well Budget is coming up with a $165 AUD one way fee.
Europcar tacked on $800 fee (but with extended rentals it seemed to disappear) the total rental fee for 1 day was MORE than a 14 day test rental.
When I tried Thrifty Rockhampton was a choice of drop off locations so maybe ROK either doesn't have Thrifty or they don't allow one-ways.
Hertz refuses to accept Rockhampton Airport even when it `suggests' it from a list.
