Car Hire in San Francisco, Mexico City, Mexico

Research toll roads on your travel route and familiarize yourself with their payment methods. Some rental agencies offer toll transponders for convenience.

Ensure you are aware of the roadside assistance included with your rental. This information is crucial in case of breakdowns or emergencies.

Some rental companies offer a free tank of fuel with your rental. Be sure to understand the terms, including how much fuel you need to return the car with and any potential fees for not meeting these conditions.

Make sure your rental agreement, identification, and insurance details are accessible throughout your rental period for easy retrieval if needed.

Before driving away, examine the rental car's interior for cleanliness and any functional issues. Ensure features like the radio and air conditioning are working properly.
