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.

Check if the rental company provides extras such as GPS devices or child seats. These can enhance your experience but may come with added fees, so plan accordingly.

Ensure you know whether your rental includes roadside assistance. This can be vital in case of breakdowns or emergencies during your rental period.

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

Before booking, check for any promotional offers or discounts that may be available. Many rental companies provide seasonal deals or discounts for early bookings.

Before renting a car, check if your personal car insurance covers rental losses. Many personal auto insurance policies and credit cards offer coverage for rentals, which could save you from extra insurance fees.
