Cheap Car Hire at Toronto Island Airport, YTZ

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.

Check if your rental company has a counter in the airport or if you need to take a shuttle to a separate location.

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.

Most rental companies will require a credit card for the deposit, which is typically frozen in your account. Make sure to inquire about the specific deposit amount and the policy for releasing the freeze.

If you have a specific vehicle in mind, opt for rentals that guarantee your chosen car type. This ensures that you receive the vehicle you expect, rather than being offered an alternative.

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

Select a pickup location that is closest to your arrival terminal for quick access to your rental vehicle.

Inquire if there are any additional fees for picking up at the airport compared to off-site locations.
