Is insurance required to rent a car in Rock Island?

When cruising through Rock Island or the rest of the U.S.A., you will need insurance. Many suppliers require that you show proof of insurance before you rent a car. Almost all countries require the driver to have insurance. You might be able to purchase additional insurance through the rental car dealer for your trip, if you think your insurance won't cover your rental during your trip. Otherwise, as a United States citizen, you can also purchase Collision Damage Coverage through CarRentals.com during checkout.

Many major card issuers, like Visa and MasterCard, give some coverage, however, there are usually restrictions. For example, you may not be covered if you reserve a luxury or larger vehicle. Check the rental car company's policy before you decide.

What is the difference between all the fuel policies?

Most suppliers allow you to choose which policy you want. Here is a list of the typical policies.

What fuel policy should I get?

Most suppliers provide you a full to full tank policy. We encourage bringing the car back with a full tank of gas. If you want to keep your expenses lower, find a gas station before you return the car. Stations close to airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

Should I get unlimited miles when I rent a car in Rock Island?

Unlimited miles is a great choice if you plan to do some sightseeing or visit several customers all over Rock Island. You can cruise as much as you like and not incur extra charges. Read over your policy to see if there are any restrictions.

Know before you go

Before you get going on your Rock Island trip, be sure you go over a few things prior to leaving the lot. You should take time to:

• Walk around your car and be sure there is no dents or scratches. 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 both the lug wrench and jack are there
• Familiarize yourself with the car. Adjust the mirrors and seats to your liking, and figure out how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
• Get comfortable working the radio or entertainment features. It's best to limit any unneeded distractions when you are driving around a new area
