Frequently Asked Questions

What is a one-way car rental?

A one-way car rental allows you to pick up a vehicle from a specific location (e.g., Perigueux) and drop it off at another location (e.g., Toulouse) without returning it to the pickup point. This can be particularly convenient for point-to-point journeys.

Are there any additional fees for a one-way car rental?

Typically, rental companies charge a one-way fee to cover the cost of returning the vehicle to its original location. This fee can vary based on the distance between the pickup and drop-off points, as well as the provider's policies.

How do I find the best rental agency for a route from Perigueux to Toulouse?

To find the best rental agency, compare offerings from well-known brands such as Hertz, Avis, and Europcar. Look for user reviews, costs, offered vehicles, and customer service ratings to make an informed decision.

Can I choose the type of vehicle available for one-way rentals?

Yes, most rental agencies allow you to select from a range of vehicles, such as compact cars, sedans, SUVs, or even luxury models. Availability may vary depending on the location and timing of your rental reservation.

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

Most rental companies have a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you should return the vehicle with the same level of gas as when you received it. It's always helpful to confirm the policy with your rental provider upon pickup.
