Car Hire in Sŏngbugil-tong, Seoul, South Korea

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.

Be aware that some rental companies impose age restrictions or additional fees for drivers under 25. Make sure to check the company’s age policy when booking.

When selecting insurance, consider whether it includes free excess coverage. Free excess means you won’t pay a deductible in case of damage, providing additional peace of mind. Compare options to find the best fit for your needs.

Select a pickup location that's convenient for you. Many rental firms have desks at airports for quick access, while others might require a shuttle service.

Opt for car hire suppliers with high ratings, as these usually reflect better service, newer vehicles, and more convenient pickup locations. At Sŏngbugil-tong, we have deals from suppliers. Among them, Be My Car boasts a rating of 4.8, Carmore has a rating of 4.7, and Hertz holds a rating of 4.5.

At Sŏngbugil-tong, car hires are billed on a daily basis. Renting for over 24 hours will incur a charge for an additional day, so be sure to plan your rental duration to avoid extra costs.

Before you drive away, inspect the rental car for existing damage and ensure it is recorded. Taking photos can help prevent disputes upon return.

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