Renting a car can enhance the flexibility of any trip - be it business or leisure. Spend a few minutes reading these tips and I guarantee that you’ll be better off!
• Renting From Airport
Renting from an airport often means airport surcharges. To avoid these fees and possibly bag additional savings, choose a car rental service away from the airport. It can be more convenient than booking at the airport and having to take a rental car shuttle and dealing with huge crowds.

• Avoid Fuel Rip – Offs
The most cost-effective arrangement for fuel is 'full-full' - you pick up the car with a full tank of petrol and you return it full, not making any petrol payment to the rental company.

• Shop Around & Compare Rates
Car rental rates can vary depending on the company or the amount of lead time, so it pays to shop around instead of taking a "one-and-done" approach. Price differences between rental companies can be enormous.

• Rushing Through Inspection
Thoroughly inspect your rental car before you drive away. Otherwise, you might be charged for damage you didn’t cause. Never assume that a ding is too small to warrant noting or that the car company already knows about damage.

• Paying extra for GPS or a Car Seat
Car rental companies may charge you extra for accessories like a GPS or child car seat. If you have a portable GPS you could pack in your suitcase and use on your trip, remember to remove it from the rental car on your return.

• Returning a Car Late
Most car rental companies charge daily rates based on 24-hour periods. You may be given a grace period, you may be charged late fees or for a full extra day if you return the car past that time window. Allow plenty of time on the day you're returning your car to avoid this extra fee.
