Car Hire with 8MILE

Note that certain rental companies have age restrictions or additional fees for drivers under 25. Always verify the age policy before booking.

Travelling with young children? 8MILE provides child safety seats for hire, ensuring a safe and secure journey for your family. This convenience means you don’t have to worry about bringing your own seats, making your travel experience smoother.

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.

When evaluating insurance, consider options that include free excess coverage, meaning you won’t pay a deductible for damages, offering additional reassurance.

Ensure your rental agreement, identification, and insurance details are readily available throughout your rental period for easy access if needed.

Most rental companies will require a credit card for the deposit, which is typically frozen in your account. Make sure to inquire about the specific deposit amount and the policy for releasing the freeze.

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.

Prior to finalizing your reservation, check for any promotional offers or discounts. Many rental agencies provide seasonal deals or early bird rates.
