Car rental in Port aux Basques (NF)

I'm planning a travel for June. I will go from Sydney (NS) to Port aux
Basques (NF) by the ferry boat, and after I will rent a car for a tour in
Newfoundland. I tried for a car rental company in Port aux Basques by
Google, but I didn't found it. Is it possible? Can you suggest me where I
can look for.

Thanks

I looked at the Avis site and they show locations only for Deer Lake,
Gander, & St. John's. It looks as though they expect you to arrive by air.

You'd be far better off renting the car in Sydney. P au B is a tiny town,
and it's unlikely you'll find rental cars there, except perhaps a small,
private firm. Anyway, renting in Sydney opens up the option of taking the
other ferry back to NS, and not having to backtrack to P au B.
Most epople visiting the Western NF fly into Deer Lake if they're not coming
by car/ferry, so there's not much demand for rentals in Port aux Basques.
