When it comes to renting a car in the southeast or anywhere for that matter, we’ve all had our share of horror stories. One of the most common problems that car rental companies have is the ability to keep their promises to their customers. For example, how many times have you seen commercials on television advertising all of these great and lofty “deals” if you rent from one car rental company over another? It sounds awesome at the outset, but then it’s a different story once you actually get to the dealership and find out that the deal wasn’t really a deal so much as it was an incentive to get you down there so that you could be harassed about renting a car from them.

Beware of the Small Print!

When you rent a car from any car rental place, you need to be wary of the “small print” so to speak. If you are unsure of what any of the terms mean, then refer to a car rental glossary.  If the car rental company advertises on television, then you should actually be able to see the small print. If they have a radio announcement, usually the small print will come in the form of some person talking extremely fast towards the end of the ad. If they have a web site, read through it thoroughly for any problems. The last thing you want to be is misinformed and/or surprised when you find out that you’re not really getting the deal you wanted.

Discounts & Incentives

Most car rental companies, such as Triangle Rent A Car, offer special car rental discounts and incentives. These discounts and incentives can range from various car rental discount programs to special coupons that offer money off rentals or whatever the case may be. Depending on how large the car rental company is, its discount programs may offer special corporate, governmental or military, and/or long term rental rates which may put it one step ahead of its competitors. Whatever you do, make sure that you always be weary of the small print and ask questions if you need to. It will make you a happier consumer in the end.
