Car Hire with Squirrel

Before departing the rental lot, ensure the vehicle contains essential emergency items like a spare tire, jack, and first aid kit.

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.

If traveling with pets, be sure to check the rental agency's pet policy. While some companies allow pets, there may be extra fees or specific requirements.

To avoid any additional charges, ensure you return the rental car at the agreed time. Review the scheduled return time to prevent any unexpected surprises.

Before your trip, confirm if your rental includes roadside assistance. This can be crucial in case of breakdowns or emergencies during your rental period.

Most rental agencies prefer credit cards and may have restrictions on using debit cards for payment. Always verify the payment methods accepted by the company before booking.

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.
