One Way Car Rental
By Rebecka Whitlock
Ever dream of driving across country? Are you in a situation where you need to drive and drop your car in another area? A few years ago a friend of mine had a flight cancelled due to bad weather. He had to be home the next day or there would be serious consequences at work. He could not wait for the bad weather to clear and flights to resume. He had to purchase a one way car rental. Unfortunately, this did not come cheap. He had to rent the car in Florida and return it in Michigan. This lovely drive cost him nearly 300 dollars and that was nearly 10 years ago. The purpose of this article is to explain about 1 way car rentals and answer some of the most frequently asked questions regarding them.
Is it always more expensive for a 1 way car rental? No, especially if you’re returning it within the same area. Most major car companies allow the car to be returned within the same city or country at no extra charge. Some may also extend the privilege within the same state. Ask around at the major companies and see what there policies are.
What if I want to hire a car in New York and return it in California?
This will cost you more. Car companies hate this because then they somehow have to get the car back to where it was originally. If you know this well in advance then the best thing to do is to call the car rental company as soon as possible. If they have sufficient notice then maybe it won’t cost you so much. You’re probably going to be limited to the major carriers. People usually do 1 way car rentals because they have no other choice. If there is time to plan it may help.
Why do one way car rentals cost more? Well as said previously. They have to figure out a way to get the car back to where it was previously. The further it has to go then generally the more costly it is. Also, companies are also afraid that there car is at a higher risk of being stolen in a 1 way car rental situation.
When doing a 1 way car rental, you should go through the major carriers. They have offices around the country so your chances of getting a better rate are good. Infect many of the smaller companies do not allow 1 way rentals. You should also plan in advance and inform the company as soon as you know your plans. Who knows, you may get lucky.
