South Africa Car Hire

A list of the most popular car hire companies and that of the best car hire companies will look very different so I wont give you a list. I will tell you what a good car hire agency should be able to do for you and then you can use that information to see whether any particular one meets those criteria.

A good rental agency will offer you a cover charge for periods that are longer than two days instead of the daily rates. The longer the period the lower the cover charge should become, that is when compared to the daily rate.

You might also want to know if the cars have any extra features that you are going to need. A good car rental company will have roof racks for luggage and maybe sports equipment or extra storage facilities. Not for free of course I’m just saying they should have them available should you ever need them.

Find out the requirements of having extra drivers included in the lease agreement. Normally you would be required to register additional drivers at an extra cost but considering the length of your lease the car rental agency should allow you to have them simply registered and their details filed.

A good car hire agency should be able to arrange your other requirements as well. That is book your flights, tours, cruises and so on. Although this will mean you paying more money. A good agency will explan the conditions of your lease to you in detail.

Most agencies will either not point out the penalties and conditions of breach of your contract. You should be clear as to what these are and how they affect you. Even though I will not list the popular ones I will just mention them quickly The most commonly used agencies in the country are Avis, RAV, Hertz and Budget. I suggest you check out one of the following for a good deal:
