Are there several of you who will drive the car? Where are you going?

Extra driver? If more than one person is driving the car, this must be stated at the time of booking or at the company upon arrival. Remember that there may be restrictions on driving the car to other countries and taking the car from or to islands such as Penang, Pulau Langkawi and Pulau Banggi.

Book as early as possible

Book as early as possible, it will usually be more expensive if you wait. In large cities such as Kota Bharu, Kuala Lumpur, Klang, Kampung Baru Subang, Johor Bahru, Subang Jaya, Ipoh, Kuching, Petaling Jaya and Shah Alam, prices often rise the later you book. It can also be difficult to find cars at major airports such as Kuala Lumpur Airport, Kota Bharu Airport, Subang Airport, Johor-Senai Airport, Ipoh Airport, Kuching Airport, Kota Kinabalu Airport, Sandakan Airport, Kuantan Airport and Penang Airport, if you wait too long.

Review the contract & terms carefully

Do a quick inspection upon pickup

Inspect and examine the rental car when you pick it up. Check that all damages, scratches and dents are included in the condition report. Check how big the deductible is! What often differentiates between smaller, cheaper companies in Malaysia and larger global companies is the amount of the deductible. Also read the conditions carefully when it comes to how the car is to be returned. Smaller local companies may have an administrative fee if the car is to be returned with an empty tank. Any fee is stated in our terms and conditions when you apply.

Refuel the car before returning it

Different companies have different fuel conditions. If the car is to be refueled before return, do so to avoid extra fees from the rental car company. Some smaller companies have an administrative fee for refueling the car if it is to be left empty, which is stated in the conditions but not always in the total price.
