Car Hire with Squirrel

Before booking, read the rental agreement carefully for any hidden charges, such as airport fees, extra driver costs, or late return penalties. Awareness is key to budgeting.

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.

Choose a pickup location that’s easy for you to access. Many rental firms have spots at airports for quick retrieval, while others might require shuttle transport.

If you intend to drive off the beaten path, verify with the rental company if this is allowed. Not all vehicles are equipped for off-road driving.

Prefer to collect your car at the airport? Want to be greeted by Squirrel staff? Or would you rather take a shuttle to the pick-up site? Squirrel offers various options tailored to your travel preferences.

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.

Take the time to read the rental agreement carefully. Understanding the terms will help you avoid surprise fees and facilitate a smooth rental experience.

Make use of GPS devices or mobile navigation apps to find your way easily. This can help you avoid getting lost and ensure a more seamless travel experience.
