Always keep your rental agreement, identification, and insurance information easily accessible during your rental period. This can help resolve any issues quickly.

When booking, check if the rental company offers extras such as GPS or child seats. These can enhance your driving experience but may incur additional costs, so it's wise to factor them into your budget.

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.

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.

Car-sharing services can be a flexible and cost-effective solution for brief journeys.

Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the vehicle's controls and features before driving off. Knowing how to operate essentials like headlights, wipers, and navigation systems can enhance safety and convenience.
