The Car rentals smart checklist you need to have.

Hiring a rental car can be either great fun or an enormous expense and waste of time. Which outcome you experience is highly dependent on how you manage your side of the deal. It doesn’t mean things can’t go wrong but you will be greatly increasing your odds of success.

I have never been a fan of checklists. I used to think that outside of specialized fields like airplane maintenance engineers, checklists were for the anal retentive obsessive compulsive people that need a list and an order for everything. It turns out my assessment was true but it is also true that having a checklist of important steps and procedures can help you to make sense out of chaos and save yourself a lot of trouble in the bargain.

Hiring a rental car falls into the important stuff category. Why? You may ask. It is not like you actually buy the car. The truth is that in many ways you do. If you have an accident that is your fault and you total your vehicle and you don’t have the right insurance you could end up having to pay a large percentage of a brand new car. Even if you simply have a small accident, or someone does a hit and run on you, you could be responsible for the repairs or for a hefty deductible fee.
