Hiring a Car in San Jose: Good to Know

How to Find the Cheap Car Rental Deal in San Jose

Consider Extra Equipment Options

When booking, check if the rental company offers extras such as GPS or child seats. These can enhance your driving experience but may incur additional costs, so it's wise to factor them into your budget.
Check for added extras like GPS and child seats

Choose the Right Vehicle

Opt for a compact car for easier parking and navigation through busy streets.
Select a car suitable for city driving

Inspect the Vehicle Before Driving Away

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.
Ensure vehicle condition is documented

Compare Insurance Options: Free Excess vs. Not Free

When selecting insurance, consider whether it includes free excess coverage. Free excess means you won’t pay a deductible in case of damage, providing additional peace of mind. Compare options to find the best fit for your needs.
Choose the right insurance coverage

Familiarize Yourself with the Vehicle

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.
Understand car features before driving

Plan for Additional Drivers

If sharing driving responsibilities, check the policies regarding additional drivers. Some companies charge fees for each extra driver, while others may include it for free under certain conditions.
Understand fees for multiple drivers

Allow extra time for car pickup

When renting a car, especially after travelling by train, allocate extra time for pickup to account for possible delays. Most car rental companies offer a 30-60 minute grace period. Sharing your train number can be helpful, but if you're running late, be sure to contact the car rental provider to let them know.
Prepare in advance for a smooth car pickup experience

Understand Pet Policies

If you're traveling with pets, confirm the rental company's pet policy before booking. Some companies allow pets but may have specific fees or restrictions, so it’s best to clarify in advance.
Confirm the rental company's pet policy
