Smarter Car Renting

Here are car rental tips from the road trip-seasoned editors of RoadsideAmerica.com:


•  Book your reservation in advance. Rates can vary drastically, even for the same rental car in Washington District of Columbia. By booking your car early, you can avoid last minute rate increases. It can also help assure your desired vehicle-type will be available at high demand car rental locations.

•  Under 25? Everyone over 25 assumes you are an awkward and unpredictable risk behind the wheel. Ridiculous, you say, without taking your eyes off the road. But be sure to check with Washington District of Columbia car rental companies about their specific policies. Some agencies require the driver to be at least 25 while other rental companies may allow younger drivers to rent for an additional fee. Have more than one driver? Be sure to ask if additional charges apply for more than one person driving the rental car.

•  Credit Cards for Pick-Up: Many agencies require a credit card upon pick-up. Yes, Opie, we live in that kind of world. So make sure you are in good standing with your "plastic." Call the car rental agency in Washington before arrival or verify in the rental policy and rules to see which forms of payment they accept.
