Cheap Sixt Car Hire in San Jose

When hiring a car, especially if you’re arriving in San Jose by flight, plan for extra time at pickup to accommodate any potential delays. Suppliers like Sixt typically offer a grace period of 30-60 minutes. Providing your flight number can be helpful, but if you’re running late, be sure to call the supplier to inform them.

Before booking, check for any promotional offers or discounts that may be available. Many rental companies provide seasonal deals or discounts for early bookings.

A credit card is often required for deposits, especially with suppliers like Sixt in San Jose. If you only have a debit card, use our website filter to find suitable offers or consider obtaining a credit card. Ensure that the main driver’s card is used to avoid any additional fees.

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.

If sharing driving responsibilities, check the policies regarding additional drivers. Some companies charge fees for each extra driver, while others may include it for free under certain conditions.

Before returning the vehicle, clarify the return procedures with the rental company. Knowing where to drop off the car and any required inspections can streamline the process.

When hiring a car in San Jose, choose a car hire deal with a “Full-to-Full” or “Same-to-Same” fuel policy from suppliers like Sixt. These policies ensure you only pay for the fuel you use, helping you avoid unnecessary costs. While a “Full-to-Empty” policy might seem convenient, it can often be more expensive if you don’t use all the fuel.
