Ensure your rental agreement, ID, and insurance details are easily accessible throughout your rental period for quick access if needed.

Familiarize yourself with the fuel policy for your rental. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means returning the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' indicates you return it at the same fuel level. Full-to-Full is usually more economical.

Before leaving the rental lot, inspect the vehicle for any pre-existing damage and ensure it’s recorded. Taking photos can help avoid disputes upon return.

When selecting insurance, consider if it includes free excess coverage. This means you won’t have to pay a deductible in the event of damage, adding an extra layer of security.

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

Prior to booking, check for any current promotional offers or discounts. Many rental agencies provide seasonal deals or early booking discounts.

Research fuel prices in the area where you'll return the vehicle. Filling up at a local station may be cheaper than paying for fuel through the rental company, especially if they charge higher rates.

Before you return the vehicle, clarify the return procedures with the rental agency. Knowing where to drop off the car and any required inspections can make the process easier.
