Car Rental with Orix

If you're traveling with pets, confirm the rental company's pet policy before booking. Some companies allow pets but may have specific fees or restrictions, so it’s best to clarify in advance.

Look up fuel prices in the area where you'll return the vehicle. Refueling at a local station is often cheaper than paying the rental company's rates.

Most rental companies will require a credit card for the deposit, which is typically frozen in your account. Make sure to inquire about the specific deposit amount and the policy for releasing the freeze.

Ask the rental agency about local driving hazards or specific conditions. This knowledge can help you prepare for potential challenges on your journey.

Familiarize yourself with the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy requires returning the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means returning at the same fuel level. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

Many rental companies require payment by credit card and may not accept debit cards. If you only have a debit card, check the rental company's payment policies in advance and look for suitable options.

Before you drive off, inspect the rental car for any existing damage and ensure it's noted. Taking pictures can help avoid disputes upon return.

Before making a rental, check if your personal auto insurance covers rental vehicles. Many policies and credit cards provide this protection, helping you save on extra insurance fees.
