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 Lerida 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 Lerida 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 Lerida!
Rental process FAQ
Highway payment points can be located either at the entrance or at the exit. In the latter case, when entering the toll road, drivers should take a special ticket and keep it until the end of the ride. When leaving the toll road, this ticket is used to pay for the ride. As a rule, payments both by a credit card and in cash are accepted.
In Spain, there is simply no settlement that is impossible to reach on free roads. It should be noted that there are usually no signs that point to free roads in their immediate vicinity. All road signs usually point to toll roads. The location of free roads is better to be specified beforehand by using a map or a navigator.
There is also such a thing as the minimum speed on local roads. It depends on the type of a road. In order to calculate the minimum allowable speed, simply divide the maximum allowed speed to 2. Driving slower than the minimum allowed speed will also be considered a violation.
