Tips for Renting a Car in Rhodesfield

Before You Rent

Choose the vehicle that best suits your travel needs using our multi-product system, which allows you to compare options and clearly view your final price upfront. Car rental insurance can sometimes be confusing, but by booking directly with Green Motion, you’ll receive the correct cover for your rental, with clear mileage terms displayed during booking.

When You Collect Your Vehicle

Plan your route in advance, especially if you’re travelling onward to Johannesburg, O.R. Tambo International Airport, Sandton, or Pretoria. Your booking confirmation includes full location contact details, so we recommend saving the number to your phone before arrival.

Have the Correct Documents Ready

To ensure a smooth and efficient check-in, please have your booking confirmation, valid driving licence, passport, and credit card ready. Preparing these documents in advance helps speed up the handover process.

Complete a Vehicle Check

When collecting your vehicle, carefully complete the Vehicle Condition Report (VCR) and note any existing damage, paying close attention to the five common damage hotspots. If damage is not recorded at pickup, you may be held responsible when returning the vehicle. We also provide a simple vehicle inspection video to guide you.

While You Rent

Drive with care, as responsibility for the vehicle remains with you during the rental period and may vary depending on the cover selected. Minor damage often occurs in busy parking areas, so where possible, allow extra space and choose safer parking spots. With unlimited mileage available on selected rentals, you can explore Gauteng without worrying about distance limits.

When You Return Your Vehicle

Before returning your car, complete a final VCR inspection and report any new damage, regardless of size. This ensures you are fully covered and allows us to process your return quickly and efficiently.
