Alabama Rental Cars

Tips to consider when renting a car in Alabama:

Ask in advance if the stated rental fee is the only charge. Sometimes there are charges besides the stated rental fee, such as airport surcharge or drop-off fees, insurance fees, fuel charges, mileage fees, taxes, additional-driver fees, underage-driver fees, and equipment rental fees (for items such as ski racks and car seats).
Ask if the rental company checks the driving records of potential customers. A company may check for violations when you arrive at the counter. You may be rejected even if you have a confirmed reservation.
Check in advance to be sure you aren't duplicating insurance coverage. You private insurance, or your employer's insurane, may cover the rental vehicle. You may also have coverage through your personal auto insurance, a motor club membership, or the credit card you use to pay for rentals.
Carefully inspect the vehicle and its tires before renting.
Ask about refueling policies and charges.
Ask if there is any kind of refundable charge, or refundable deposit, being charged to your credit card. When you pick up your car, the company may make a charge or place a hold of hundreds of dollars on your credit card. Most companies do not process this amount unless you fail to return the car as specified in your rental contract. If it is processed and the amount takes you near or over your credit card limit, you may have trouble using your card for other purchases.
