Therefore, we encourage you to order full coverage of insurance franchise during your booking, or directly at the rental office in Sacramento.
Before leaving the parking garage in Sacramento, inspect the minivan for exteriour defects and other signs of damage together with the office representative and mark the found defects found in your rental documents.
