Car Rental in Austin

SUV rental in Austin

The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Austin are: Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Escape, Jeep Cherokee, Jeep Wrangler, Nissan Pathfinder 4WD, Toyota Landcruiser and others.

While selecting your preferred model of an off-road vehicle, please examine the rental conditions. In particular, those requirements that concern credit cards – when it comes to renting an expensive car, sometimes offices in USA ask information about two credit cards.

Before signing the contract in the rental office upon arrival, check that the invoice figures match with figures in your voucher.

Once the vehicle is assigned, inspect it carefully before leaving the parking. Crossovers and SUVs are often used in tough road conditions, therefore scratches and other exteriour defects are inevitable. Due to this, it is important to check and specify all existing defects in your rental documents.

If you plan to use an off-road vehicle in the mountains, it is recommended to order snow chains. This will save you from unexpected incidents. Other important equipment in USA are mandatory child seats for travellers with children. OrangeSmile.com wishes you a safe trip and green lights on the roads of Austin!

When preparing for a car travel, drivers should not forget to bring a proof of identity (passport), a driving license of the international standard, a car insurance and Title (a proof of the car ownership). There must also be a number with a special sticker that confirms the payment of the tax at the rear of the car.
Local drivers rarely attach a vehicle number on the front side of a car. It is more common to see original labels with text greetings, names of pets and other funny signs there. Motorists of each state have their own motto, which can also be seen on the front sign instead of a number.
Drivers, who do not violate traffic rules and do not behave defiantly on the roads of the country, should definitely not be afraid of any punishments. If a serious violation of the traffic rules has happened, you need to respond calmly to requests of the local police, stop your car and stay inside the car.

Rental, parking and other info on Austin - Airport
A consolidated rental car centre is connected to the Barbara Jordan Terminal and the parking garage via pedestrian walkways. This centre features leading car rental companies, which are Advantage, Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, E-Z, Fox, Enterprise, Hertz, National, Payless, and Thrifty. You can get to the centre from the top level of the terminal, from the drop-off and ticket sales area via the pedestrian walkway. The cars are hired at, collected from and returned to the consolidated car rental centre.

The rental conditions include meeting age requirements of 25 years or older (the rental cost per day is higher for the drivers aged between 21 and 24 years old) and the presence of a valid driver's license. If you want to introduce the second driver into the rental agreement, his or her personal presence will be required. The presence of an international driver's license does not entitle a person to drive a vehicle; one is required to produce a national driver's license as well.

Some firms recover a sum equal to the daily rental rate for cancellation of advance booking more than 24 hours before the time indicated in the order. Supplementary equipment is subject to availability and is provided by the firms at an additional cost. Not all the companies allow the clients to install their own accessories into the leased vehicle. Both credit and debit cards are accepted for payment. It is possible to return the rental car to another location if this option has been indicated in the rental agreement beforehand. Read all...
