Cheap Sixt Car Hire in Basel

If you are travelling to Basel and considering hiring a car, choosing an in-terminal car hire supplier can save you time and hassle. Suppliers like Sixt have locations right at the airport, allowing you to avoid shuttle buses or meet-and-greet services and ensuring a quicker and more convenient pickup.

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.

Choose car hire suppliers with high ratings, as these often indicate better service, newer cars, and more convenient pickup locations. For Basel, we have car hire deals from 15 suppliers. Among them, Sixt has a rating of 4.6, Europcar has a rating of 4.7, Alamo has a rating of 4.6 and National has a rating of 4.6.

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.

Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the vehicle's controls and features before driving off. Knowing how to operate essentials like headlights, wipers, and navigation systems can enhance safety and convenience.

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 Basel, confirm the exact drop-off location with Sixt. This will save you time and help avoid any confusion at the end of your rental period.

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.
