When hiring a car in Walnut Creek, choose a car hire deal with a “Full-to-Full” or “Same-to-Same” fuel policy from suppliers like Hertz. These policies ensure you only pay for the fuel you use, helping you avoid unnecessary costs. While a “Full-to-Empty” policy might seem convenient, it can often be more expensive if you don’t use all the fuel.

Steer clear of peak traffic times to minimize delays and frustration.

When hiring a car, especially if you’re arriving in Walnut Creek by flight, plan for extra time at pickup to accommodate any potential delays. Suppliers like Hertz 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.

Select a pickup location that is convenient for you. Some rental companies offer locations within the airport for quick access, while others may require shuttle transportation.

Before returning the vehicle, clarify the return procedures with the rental company. Knowing where to drop off the car and any required inspections can streamline the process.

A compact vehicle is easier to park and maneuver in congested city streets.
