3 Helpful Questions to Ask Your Brooklyn Van Rental Company
At VTI Van Rentals, we help people in the Brooklyn area find the perfect van rental for everything from a family trip to moving to work transportation. We know firsthand the questions that are helpful to ask a rental company before signing a rental agreement. So, along with basic questions about payment, insurance, and drop-off expectations, what should you ask your van rental company to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible? We are here to walk you through the process.
1. How Many Drivers Are Included in the Rental Agreement?
Before you hit the road, it’s important to know the number of drivers allowed in your rental agreement. Why? Well, there are a few reasons:
- Insurance Purposes: Knowing who will drive the vehicle allows us to ensure that all drivers are covered by the insurance policy.
- Driver Verification: Verifying driving records and licenses helps us ensure all drivers are over a certain age and eligible to drive.
- Legal Compliance: Just like there are laws governing road rules, van rental companies must comply with local and national regulations. We document all authorized drivers for legal reasons.
At VTI Van Rentals, we allow up to three additional drivers. Each extra driver costs $3 per day, and that excludes spouses.
2. What Are the Mileage Limits?
Mileage policies can affect your rental costs. VTI Van Rentals offers a fixed number of free miles with each rental. If you anticipate driving beyond this limit, we can tailor a mileage package to fit your needs. If you drive over the free mileage limit, we typically charge $0.35 per mile. Always refer to your rental agreement to confirm specific rates.
3. How Old Are Your Vehicles?
The age of rental vehicles can affect reliability and safety. VTI Van Rentals maintains a fleet ranging from 2019 to 2022, so you can be assured each rental includes modern amenities and a low chance of a breakdown.
If you end up with a flat tire, we provide 24-hour roadside assistance. We also partner with the largest repair company nationwide, so you know you’ll be taken care of on the road.
