Car Hire with Drive

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.

When evaluating insurance, consider options that include free excess coverage, meaning you won’t pay a deductible for damages, offering additional reassurance.

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.

Some rental companies offer a free tank of fuel with your rental. Be sure to understand the terms, including how much fuel you need to return the car with and any potential fees for not meeting these conditions.

Returning your hire car is hassle-free with Drive. They provide clear return procedures and multiple options, ensuring a smooth end to your car hire experience, so you can focus on the next part of your journey without any stress.

If you have a particular vehicle model in mind, choose rentals that guarantee the car type. This prevents surprises at pickup when you receive a different vehicle.

If you plan to share driving, check if the rental company allows a second driver and whether there are additional fees. Some companies offer free second driver options under certain conditions.

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.
