Car Hire with PA Rent A Car

Ensure you understand the roadside assistance that comes with your rental. This information is vital in case of breakdowns or emergencies.

Most rental agencies prefer credit cards and may have restrictions on using debit cards for payment. Always verify the payment methods accepted by the company before booking.

If traveling with pets, be sure to check the rental agency's pet policy. While some companies allow pets, there may be extra fees or specific requirements.

Before returning the car, clarify the return procedures with the rental agency. Knowing where to drop off the vehicle and any necessary inspections can ease the process.

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.

When renting a car, understand the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means you return the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means you return it with the same level of fuel. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

Typically, car rental companies require a credit card deposit that is temporarily held. Make sure to ask about the specific deposit amount and how it's handled once you return the vehicle.

When evaluating insurance, consider options that include free excess coverage, meaning you won’t pay a deductible for damages, offering additional reassurance.
