Selecting The Best Car Rental Agency

 

When it comes to choosing car rental companies there are number of things that you should be aware of. Planning the trip in advance and doing a little research about the available agencies will also help you.

Most companies will assure you that by making a reservation with them before you even arrive they will give you lower rates when in actual fact it is the opposite. Car charges are not constant and vary through out the year. So at the time of your booking make sure you know which rates will apply when you pick up the car.

So before choosing a car rental it would be best to have an estimate of the amount that you are willing to spend on the rental, and the different sites that you intend to visit. Then you should be clear on your dates and how flexible you are on these dates. These facts will help you choose the right car and help you when you are negotiating as well.

Online bookings are the simplest. Most companies will offer you a discount for booking online because they save on time and money. It is possible that you might require a car with extra features find out if these are available. Things like roof racks for luggage and sporting equipment, any navigation systems or storage facilities.

Most agencies have a daily rate that applies for a limited number of km and charge for any km’s that are exceeded. For those renting the car for more than two days you can negotiate a cover charge for the whole period than pay for extra km’s travelled . Some are flexible on drivers as long as you register the drivers with them others will require you to pay for the extra drivers. What it comes down to is looking at the original deal, comparing it with others and then good negotiating skills. I would suggest that you consider any of the following for good deals:

  1. Car Rental Sandton South Africa
  2. Car Hire Johannesburg Airport
  3. Hertz Car Rental South Africa
