Cheap Thrifty Car Hire in Stavanger

Familiarize yourself with local habits to enhance your safety and compliance on the road.

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.

When hiring a car, especially if you’re arriving in Stavanger by flight, plan for extra time at pickup to accommodate any potential delays. Suppliers like Thrifty typically offer a grace period of 30-60 minutes. Providing your flight number can be helpful, but if you’re running late, be sure to call the supplier to inform them.

If you have a specific vehicle in mind, opt for rentals that guarantee your chosen car type. This ensures that you receive the vehicle you expect, rather than being offered an alternative.

If you plan to share driving, check if the rental company allows a second driver and whether there are additional fees. Some companies offer free second driver options under certain conditions.

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.

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.

Before concluding your car hire in Stavanger, confirm the exact drop-off location with Thrifty. This will save you time and help avoid any confusion at the end of your rental period.
