Select a pickup spot that is easy for you to reach. Many rental companies offer locations within airports for quick access, while others may require a shuttle.

Before you book, review the rental agreement for any hidden fees, such as airport surcharges, additional driver costs, or penalties for late returns. Awareness helps in budgeting appropriately.

Take time to read the rental agreement carefully. Understanding the terms can help you avoid unexpected fees and ensure a smooth rental process.

Ensure you know whether your rental includes roadside assistance. This can be vital in case of breakdowns or emergencies during your rental period.

Look up fuel prices in the area where you'll return the vehicle. Refueling at a local station is often more economical than paying rental company rates.
