What should I pay attention to for a one-way rental?

Key Consideration：

Understand the one-way fee: Most car rental companies charge an additional fee for returning the vehicle to a different location. Confirm this cost before booking.
Check cross-border restrictions: If your route includes travel beyond Italy, ensure cross-border permissions are allowed for the car rental.
Vehicle choices and availability: Some car types might be unavailable for one-way rentals. Confirm availability when making your reservation.
Cancellation and refund policies: Familiarize yourself with the company's refund policies in case you need to modify or cancel your booking.
Fuel policy: Check whether the car rental requires you to return the vehicle with a full tank of gas or what other fuel policies they have in place.

Smart Planning Tips:

Plan for fuel stops: Identify convenient fuel stations along your route to avoid last-minute refueling hassles.
Book early for better availability: Secure your preferred vehicle type and avoid higher prices by booking your rental car well in advance.
Request additional equipment: If you need accessories like GPS or child seats, mention them when booking to ensure availability.
Understand toll road charges: Factor in potential toll expenses for the distance between Bergamo and Venice.
Inspect the vehicle before departure: Check for any pre-existing damage or issues with the vehicle, and report them to the rental agency before driving off.
Confirm drop-off details: Verify the exact drop-off location in Venice and whether it’s conveniently located for your trip.
