Cheap Car Hire at JR Utsunomiya Station

Before heading to the station, make sure to check the rental company's opening hours to avoid arriving when they are closed.

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 time based on your flight arrival to avoid inconvenience due to delays.

Choose car hire suppliers with high ratings, as these often indicate better service, newer cars, and more convenient pickup locations. At JR Utsunomiya Station, we have car hire deals from suppliers. Among them Alamo has a rating of 4.7, Times has a rating of 4.7 and Hertz has a rating of 4.4.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Utsunomiya, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70

Select a pickup location that is convenient for you. Some rental companies offer locations within the airport for quick access, while others may require shuttle transportation.

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.

If you're traveling with pets, confirm the rental company's pet policy before booking. Some companies allow pets but may have specific fees or restrictions, so it’s best to clarify in advance.
