The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.
Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Eindhoven borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.
If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Eindhoven might be delayed for a day or two.
Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.
We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Eindhoven!
Rental process FAQ
A huge number of cyclists is a striking feature of local roads. This type of transport is very popular with local people. Of course, that fact also adds some peculiarities to local traffic and its organization.
There are special lanes for bicycles along main roads. These lanes are marked with special signs, and neither motorists nor pedestrians are allowed to use them. It is important to note that bicycle roads, as well as other roads, can have one-way and two-way traffic.
In some parts of local roads you may see unusual road signs that prohibit movement. Below them there is an additional panel with the word «uitgezondered» and images of a bike or a scooter. This means that all vehicles except bicycles and scooters are forbidden to move on that road.
