Car Hire in Florauna, Pretoria, South Africa

If someone else will drive, confirm the rental company's policy on additional drivers and any fees that may apply. Some might offer complimentary drivers under certain conditions.

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.

Inquire whether the rental agency provides additional items such as GPS devices or child safety seats. These can enhance your trip but may incur extra costs, so plan ahead.

Research toll roads on your travel route and familiarize yourself with their payment methods. Some rental agencies offer toll transponders for convenience.

When renting a car, especially after travelling by train, allocate extra time for pickup to account for possible delays. Most car hire companies offer a 30-60 minute grace period. Sharing your train number can be helpful, but if you're running late, be sure to contact the car hire provider to let them know.

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.
