  • Check if a collision damage waiver (CDW) is part of your Kocaeli car hire policy, whether you go with Rent Go or another supplier. Some companies treat it as an optional extra instead of bundling it in.

  • Booking one-way could snag you a bargain on your car hire. Providers sometimes offer lower rates when vehicles need to be moved between branches. Just choose 'Return car to a different location' when searching for a car for rent in Kocaeli.

  • Search for a vehicle with a 'Fair fuel policy.' You'll pick up and drop off your car hire in Kocaeli with a full tank, so you're only paying for what you use. You'll also skip the costly refueling charges rental agencies tack on.

Insurance and optional extras

Good to know

  • Age requirements can vary by provider (and even car type), so know the rules before you book. Some suppliers in Türkiye (Turkey) may rent to younger drivers for an extra fee. If you're outside the typical age range, simply uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to browse your options.

  • If you've got the kids in tow, check if you need to add a car seat to your Kocaeli car hire reservation. Whether local laws require them or not, they're always the safest way for little ones to travel.
