Have you got a car seat yet?

To travel safely in cars children need to be in a car seat from their very first ride.

The law in New Zealand requires you to have all children under 5 years of age restrained in a child car restraint for every ride.

The restraint must be a child restraint appropriate for the height and weight of the child, the vehicle safety belt on its own is not enough. Click here to read more about car safety and which type of car seat restraint is best for your child.

Children 5-7 years old must use a child restraint if there is one appropriate for their height and weight in the vehicle, otherwise they must use the vehicle safety belt. For children 8-14 years old you must use a safety belt if available, children must travel in the back seat.

Remember to book your car seats as early as possible.

Plunket car seat rental schemes offer a variety of infant and child restraints and booster seats at affordable rental prices. There are both short and long-term hire options available. A bond is charged in addition to rental, and this is refunded when the seat is returned in good condition.

Our car seat rental scheme staff are trained child restraint technicians which means they have the knowledge to provide the best advice on the installation and use of child restraints.

It is strongly recommended that to keep babies and toddlers safe they travel rear-facing until 2 years of age. Older children should stay in their forward-facing child restraint or booster seat until they outgrow it.
