Before contacting the rental agency, have a clear idea about -
- The destination you are headed for.
- The route you are planning on taking.
- If you are going to drive the entire way or if there will be another person taking turns at the driving.
- The number of passengers, if any, in the car.
- The type of car you want.
- Your rental budget.
- The details of your insurance policies, particularly the automobile and liability insurance policies and if these cover car rentals.
When searching for one way car rental companies, do the following -
- Find out if the company has offices and drop off places along the route you are taking or in the cities you will be visiting. Major car rental companies are more likely to have a high percentage of drop off places around the country. It also is reassuring to rent from a company with an established reputation. You stand a better chance of getting a quality car and less chances of being scammed or ripped off.
- Whether you book your vehicle online or at the car rental office, make sure you carefully read the rental agreement and restrictions and that you understand all the terms and conditions thoroughly. If you don't comprehend any of the terms, ask the agent to clarify them for you. You don't want to get into a legal bind for overlooking some detail.
- Find out if there is a penalty for no-shows.
