subject: Car Hire And Its Convenience [print this page] Rather than jumping on a plane and taking to grey skies, it is more fun to go to a car hire and drive around the country in Singapore these days. Cheap car hires are spread across the country and await you a mere phone call away. Most car hires are competitively priced and have great offers with extra drivers, baby seats, satellite navigation systems and unlimited mileage. With these extra features, it makes it that much easier to select a pickup place and trust the car hire company to take care of the rest of your journey. We have several useful tips you can follow to make your cheap car hires easier and make your journey all the more safe and comfortable.
Most car rental Singapore have age limits restricting people above a certain age limit as they may not be considered fit enough to drive. The cut-off is generally around 70, with 75 being most common. If you are above this age limit, some research on the internet or the car hire directory would unearth rental agencies that do offer cars to elders.
One must choose a vehicle carefully depending on various factors such as who they travel with and how many miles are to be travelled. If from another country, examine a car's features carefully to see how it may be different from ones usually driven by them.
A common rule car rental agencies have is that the car must be returned with a full tank of petrol or gas, failing which, heavy fines are issued. The best way to avoid such a hassle would be to use the pre-paid option which means one has to pay extra but this amount would be doubled in case one has to pay a fine.
Presenting documents for car hire is not too much of a hassle with most car agencies only requiring seeing your driver's license and the passport if you are from a different country. One may need to have a credit card unless payment is made through cash. These are available with some firms and the customer is generally charged higher fees since the company has to pick up the car from the scheduled spot where it's left.
Planning one's trip carefully with the right cheap car hire agency can go a long way in making one's trip happy and comfortable. Following the tips given above can go a long way in making one's trip go smoother and safer, thus ensuring that you have a good time.
Cheap car hire agreements are long and tedious. Most people do not even care to read them. It is desirable to go through the entire agreement and ask questions about each and every charge you have doubts about. Some charges can be very unreasonable and if you point it out companies who want to build a long term relationship with a customer might cancel out these charges.
Making arrangements for car hire before reaching Singapore is must if you want to comfortably travel around the wonderful country.
