That depends on your needs and what you'll be doing when you visit Dorchester. If you're having a bit of trouble choosing, be sure to read over our table below. We have compared the most popular types of cars for you:
What's the age requirement to rent a car in Dorchester?
Typically, the age limit for renting a car in Dorchester is 21—the same as it is across the rest of the country. Additionally, many suppliers charge an added fee if you are under 25. Be sure to read over the rental agreement to determine what the total will be before you book your vehicle.
Do I need insurance to rent a car in Dorchester?
When driving in Dorchester or the rest of Canada, you will need insurance. Almost every supplier requires that you show proof of insurance before you pick up your vehicle. The majority of countries require driver's insurance. You may be able to purchase interim coverage through the rental supplier.
The major credit card issuers (Discover, American Express, Visa, and MasterCard) will usually offer coverage. But many of them have restrictions, such as not covering bigger vehicles like trucks or SUVs. Make sure to find out exactly what your credit card will cover and how much before you travel to Dorchester.
What are the different fuel policies?
Most suppliers give you a choice of fuel policies. Below is a list of the most common ones.
What fuel policy should I get?
We encourage a full tank policy. You receive the vehicle with a full tank, and you should bring it back it filled up. If you want to keep your expenses lower, it is best to fill up your tank before you return the car. Stations near airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.
Is it worth getting unlimited miles?
Unlimited mileage is a good choice for those who don't want to worry about how many miles they are driving. Just make sure that your policy really provides unlimited miles. Read the fine print before you book.
Before you leave the lot
Be sure you check a few items before you leave the car rental lot. You should:
- Walk around your car and determine if there is any damage or scrapes. Be sure to make note of it on the paperwork, or you may get charged for it
- Inspect the trunk to see if the spare is properly inflated and the necessary tools to change it are there
- Get familiar with the controls of your car. Adjust the mirrors and seats to your liking, and figure out how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
- Get comfortable operating the navigation and entertainment. You don't want any unneeded distractions in a new city
