Taxes and fees

Image
Between the advertised rate when you make comparisons on the internet, the price displayed at booking and the addition that you will actually be charged, there may be a world of difference. For best limo services Hanover to Logan Airport Limo Car Service .  Local taxes, pseudo booking fees, credit card payment fees, etc. : Always check that everything is included in the booking and print it in black and white if you do not pay in advance - and for that matter: even if you pay in advance! Additional driver Do not make the mistake of letting your wife / partner / husband / companion drive without first asking the hirer for an "additional driver" option; In the event of an accident, the insurance may not intervene. In most cases, this option pays off, with a rate related to the number of rental days. Again it is decided before receiving the keys. One way and delivery to the airport You plan a trip and want to be able to return the vehicle to a city oth...

Insurance

Image
The mandatory minimum is third-party liability insurance which covers damage caused to third parties in the event of an accident. Most rental companies will also offer you a CDW (Collision Damage Waiver) insurance and a theft insurance, some a broken cover of ice, damage to the tires and the bottom of the case. First thing to check: which insurance are included in the basic rate and which are extra - often a price per rental day. Second trap: the franchise. In most cases of damage, it will be claimed ... and automatically debited from the credit card, which you must have left the imprint when removing the vehicle. And it is often very high: several hundred euros at the bottom. Sunny Cars' all-in formula includes all necessary insurance, without deductible. I checked it: after accidentally breaking the central mirror of my SUV (with all the electronics that goes with it) in Vancouver, I went to the Canadian hirer (National via Sunny Cars) to ask him to...

The model

The renters leave all the choice of the mark and the model to the reservation, subject to availability. For best limo services  Rent a Limo Car services in Norwell .  The best is when everything is perfectly set in advance, everything goes exactly as planned and even better - when the final hirer bends over backwards to solve the small problems encountered on the spot with the car, without asking you Extra charge. This is the positive experience of my recent trip to British Columbia, western Canada. I tested the services of Sunny Cars for the first time. These are not, on paper, the cheapest. But they have a unique asset: their "All-in" formula. Insurance without deductible, unlimited mileage, local taxes, airport transfer fees almost anywhere, possibility to make changes without charge after booking ... Believe me: it really means "all inclusive". I therefore take advantage of the practical advice of Sunny Cars to offer you this brief overvi...

In recent years the intermediaries

Image
I insist because, in recent years, the latter - the intermediaries - have been blossoming like rusty tasks on an Italian crate of the 80s. They are renters of vehicles who do not own them, but play on the volume to negotiate favorable rates with the major brands. In other words, you rent via one of these intermediaries and, depending on the destination, the date and the model chosen, you find yourself at Avis, Budget, Hertz, Europcar, National or Alamo, for example. At a price (theoretically) less than what you would have paid had you addressed this giant directly. How is it possible? It is a question of volume: the best intermediaries guarantee to their supplier a sufficient number of customers so that the latter agrees to reduce its margin. He fined himself there on quantity. That is the best of times. Because in terms of intermediation, it is like everywhere: the worst is the best. The worst part is when you get on the internet with unbeatable rates; you pa...

Renting a car while traveling abroad is not always a sinecure. For limo services  Hanover to Logan Airport Limo Car Service .  I no longer count the (bad) surprises I was faced with left and right. Between the supplements for taxes and various expenses, the gasoline carried out by the renter at three times the normal price of fuel at the pump, the GPS that does not work, the chains that are not at the right size Is blocked in the midst of a snowstorm, the gearbox that makes the soul, the reserved model unavailable, the frankness engulfed for a blow in the bodywork already there, the invoice paid in advance to the intermediary (Via internet) and refused on the spot by the final renter ... And then, miracle! On my last trip to British Columbia, everything went wonderfully well for once! I do not resist the pleasure of slipping some basic tricks to avoid disappointments in your next rental... Like any good traveler, I regularly rent a car while traveling....
