Cheap Hertz Car Hire Deals at Zurich Main Station, Zurich

Before renting a car, check if your personal car insurance covers rental losses. Many personal auto insurance policies and credit cards offer coverage for rentals, which could save you from extra insurance fees.

Before leaving the rental location, inspect the car for any existing damage and ensure it’s documented. Take photos if necessary to avoid disputes when returning the vehicle.

When renting a car, understand the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means you return the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means you return it with the same level of fuel. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

Ensure you know the rental office's hours to avoid arriving when they're not open.

Research fuel prices in the area where you'll return the vehicle. Filling up at a local station may be cheaper than paying for fuel through the rental company, especially if they charge higher rates.

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.

Download offline maps or bring a secondary GPS in case the station's signal is weak.

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.
