Truck rental companies will always offer additional insurance which can cost up to $40.00 per day. They love to offer such insurance because they make a lot of money on that product. Prior to going to pick up your truck, be sure to research whether or not you really need to purchase any incremental insurance. Also:
- Many credit card companies will already cover you if you use the card and rent a truck or car.
- Check your own automobile insurance policy for coverage.
- If you do decide that you want the incremental coverage, then also be sure to compare all aspects of the policy.
- Make sure you understand all of the coverage and what the deductibles would be.
- Always makes sure that the coverage extends to other states and countries if you are driving a far distance.
