Question 1

Do I need to return the car with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

Whether you need to return the car with a full tank of gas depends on the fuel policy you select. With a full-to-full or same-to-same policy, you must return the vehicle with the same level of fuel it had when you picked it up. If you don’t, you’ll incur a charge for the missing fuel, usually at a rate higher than local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank, which means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, this option typically results in a higher overall cost, as you’ll be charged the local gas price minus a discount per gallon.

Question 2

Is it more cost-effective to hire a car for a week at Yokohama Station?

Accepted Answer

Hiring a car for a week at Yokohama Station can sometimes be more cost-effective than hiring for a shorter period, as many car hire companies offer weekly rates that provide better value. To ensure you get the best deal, it’s advisable to compare rates and check for any available discounts or promotions during the booking process. Always review the pricing details carefully before finalizing your reservation.

Question 3

Can I hire a car if I’m a foreigner at Yokohama Station

Accepted Answer

Yes, as a foreigner, you can typically hire a car at Yokohama Station provided you meet the hire company’s requirements. These usually include being of legal driving age, having a valid driver’s license, and using a major credit card. In some cases, you may also need an International Driving Permit (IDP). For the most accurate information on necessary documents and conditions, check with the local car hire company or visit their website before booking.

Question 4

Is it worth hiring a car at Yokohama Station

Accepted Answer

Hiring a car at Yokohama Station can be worthwhile depending on your travel needs and preferences. If you plan to visit areas outside the city or value the flexibility of having your own transportation, hiring a car might be advantageous. However, it’s important to consider factors like cost, traffic conditions, and the availability of public transportation. In some locations, using public transit or ride-sharing services could be more convenient and economical. Additionally, review local driving laws and ensure you're comfortable with the driving conditions before deciding to hire a car.

Question 5

Is it necessary to buy additional insurance when hiring a car at Yokohama Station?

Accepted Answer

When hiring a car at Yokohama Station, valid insurance is required for financial protection; without it, your rental may be denied. If you already have insurance that covers international rentals for your vehicle type or if your credit card offers rental insurance abroad, you might not need extra coverage. However, if these conditions don't apply to you, purchasing additional insurance is advisable. You can choose from options such as Excess Fee Insurance during the booking process on our website, or Full Coverage Insurance or Excess Reduction at the rental counter to ensure comprehensive protection.

Question 6

Why is a Credit Card required for car hire at Yokohama Station?

Accepted Answer

To hire a car at Yokohama Station, a credit card is typically required to secure your reservation and cover any potential surcharges, such as tolls, damages, or fuel. Major credit cards like Visa, MasterCard, or Discover are accepted for this purpose. The credit card must be in the primary driver's name to ensure financial responsibility for the vehicle. While some locations may accept debit cards, they often require additional documentation or a credit check. For a hassle-free hiring experience, it's advisable to use a major credit card like Visa, MasterCard, or Discover.

Question 7

What should I do if I damage a hire car at Yokohama Station?

Accepted Answer

If you damage a hire car at Yokohama Station, the Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) typically covers the cost of repairs. To avoid additional expenses, make sure your insurance policy includes zero excess coverage. If your CDW has an excess limit, you'll be responsible for paying part of the repair costs, which is usually deducted from the deposit you provided when hiring the car. For specific details on coverage and potential charges, it's best to check your rental agreement and insurance policy before you drive.
