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

Key Consideration:
  • Be mindful of the one-way fee: Many rental companies include a one-way fee in their pricing. Verify this cost when booking a vehicle.
  • Understand cross-border restrictions: If your trip plans to cross state or international borders, confirm whether your rental agreement allows it.
  • Determine suitable drop-off locations: Ensure the destination drop-off location offers convenient hours and proximity to your itinerary.
  • Plan for refueling before drop-off: Returning a vehicle with a full tank often avoids additional refueling charges.
  • Select the right vehicle for your trip: Consider terrain and weather conditions when choosing between compact, SUV, or premium vehicles.
Smart Planning Tips:
  • Research the route for attractions: Take some time to map out notable stops or scenic spots along the way for a more enriching experience.
  • Verify vehicle condition during pick-up: Ensure your car is in optimal working condition, with all agreed amenities present.
  • Save rental company contact information: Having quick access to the support or help desk number can be useful in emergencies.
  • Book your rental vehicle in advance: Early bookings can avail better car options and discounts for popular routes.
  • Identify gas stations near the drop-off point: Understanding where to refuel near your return location can simplify the returning process.
Insurance: A Critical Consideration

Rental car insurance is essential for peace of mind on your journey. Counter rates can be expensive, often adding $20-40 per day to your rental cost.
