Car Hire in Stadtbezirk 3-Hafen, Dusseldorf, Germany

Select a pickup location that is convenient for you. Some rental companies offer locations within the airport for quick access, while others may require shuttle transportation.

Take time to familiarize yourself with the vehicle's controls and features before heading out. Understanding essential functions such as lights, wipers, and navigation can enhance your safety.

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.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Dusseldorf, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70

Before confirming your booking, see if the rental company offers free cancellation. This can be very beneficial if your travel plans change suddenly.

Familiarize yourself with the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy requires returning the vehicle with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' requires it to be returned at the same fuel level. Full-to-Full is generally more economical.

Ensure you are aware of the roadside assistance included with your rental. This information is crucial in case of breakdowns or emergencies.

If you plan to drive off-road, confirm with the rental company whether it’s permitted. Not all vehicles are suited for off-road conditions.
