Car Hire in Guildwood, Toronto, Canada

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.

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.

Many car hire deals at Guildwood require a credit card for the deposit. If you only have a debit card, use our website's filter to find options that accommodate it or consider getting a credit card. Make sure the main driver’s card is used to prevent any extra charges.

If you're looking for more comfort or features, inquire about upgrade options at the rental desk. Sometimes, upgrades are offered at a discounted rate at pickup.

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

Inquire with the rental service about any local driving risks or specific road conditions. Being informed can help you navigate potential challenges during your journey.

Before driving away, examine the rental car's interior for cleanliness and any functional issues. Ensure features like the radio and air conditioning are working properly.

When selecting insurance, consider whether it includes free excess coverage. Free excess means you won’t pay a deductible in case of damage, providing additional peace of mind. Compare options to find the best fit for your needs.
