Car Hire with Foco

Some rentals impose mileage caps, while others offer unlimited mileage. Read the policies carefully to avoid unexpected fees at the end of your rental.

Typically, car rental companies require a credit card deposit that is temporarily held. Make sure to ask about the specific deposit amount and how it's handled once you return the vehicle.

Ask the rental agency about local driving hazards or specific conditions. This knowledge can help you prepare for potential challenges on your journey.

If you need a vehicle for an extended period, Foco offers discounts for long-term hires. This means you can save significantly on your car hire while enjoying the flexibility to explore your destination at your own pace.

Many rental companies require payment by credit card and may not accept debit cards. If you only have a debit card, check the rental company's payment policies in advance and look for suitable options.

If you have a particular vehicle model in mind, choose rentals that guarantee the car type. This prevents surprises at pickup when you receive a different vehicle.

Familiarize yourself with the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy requires returning the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means returning at the same fuel level. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

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.
