First and foremost, travelers should call around to compare estimates from different Miami car rental companies. Look into weekly or weekend deals. It is wise to find out if the Miami car rental company you choose checks driving records before renting out vehicles (they may add extra fees or reject you). After you have decided on the Miami car rental company you want, reduce your chances of encountering any problems by knowing about your rights, what to expect and following different tips.

  • Miami car rentals' rates are usually charged per day. The rate may include unlimited mileage, or the company may charge for every extra mile used over a certain limit.
  • Many companies offer lower rates for weekend or week-long rentals.
  • Members of organizations such as the American Automobile Association (AAA) are often eligible for discounted rates.
  • If you arrive at the rental company on time and find that the car company does not have the car you reserved available, the company is required to find you another vehicle from its inventory. If the only available car is more expensive, the traveler is not responsible for paying the difference.




Miami Car Rentals Potential Fees

Be prepared for any extra fees slapped on by the Miami car rental company. They are required to notify you of any fees before you sign the rental agreement. Below is a list of the potential fees you're most likely to encounter:

  • For the Flakes: If you fail to cancel a reservation in advance or are a no-show, car rental companies may charge a penalty fee.
  • Young Drivers: Many companies require that customers be at least 21, or in some cases 25, to rent a car. A daily surcharge may be added for drivers aged 21 to 24.
  • Have a credit or debit card: Normally, a security deposit from a major credit card or debit card is required at the time of rental. Some companies may accept prepaid vouchers that may be obtained by paying for the rental car first at the travel agency.
  • Bad Drivers: Many rental car companies check customer driving records through their state department of motor vehicles. DUI violations or even more minor violations such as accidents, moving violations or seat belt law violations can bring on extra fees or refusal to rent you a vehicle. Instead, some companies may require a signed statement saying that you have a safe driving record. Should any accidents occur later and the signed statement proves to be false, the company can claim you violated the agreement.
  • Renting at the Airport: Airports often add surcharges and taxes.
  • Additional Drivers: There may be an extra charge if anyone other than the person who signed the rental agreement drives the car.
  • Bring your own Baby Seat (BYOBS): A charge of $3-$5 per day or $25 per week may be required to rent a child safety seat.
  • Drop-off where you picked up: higher rates may be charged for dropping off a car at a location other than where you rented it. Charges for picking up the car in one city and dropping it off in another can be as high as $1,000.
  • Refuel: If you do not return the car with a full gas tank some companies will force you to pay their higher gas prices.
  • A refundable charge may be required by some companies. Most places charge your credit card but do not process the amount unless you do not return the car as agreed upon in your rental contract.
  • Taxes are added by states and some cities. You may be able to avoid a higher tax rate by picking up your rental car at a suburban location.
  • Equipment-rentals: ski racks and car seats are available at some car rental companies for an extra fee.
