Standalone Car Rental Excess Cover

Excess cover is rarely top of the holiday to-do list. But sorting it before you go could save you up to 50% on what the rental desk charges.

Rental companies often sell extra cover at the desk. It's usually charged per day and comes with plenty of exclusions. Standalone cover is different: you buy it separately, before your trip, and it often costs less.

A standalone cover can be bought separately from your rental car, any time before you travel. Rental company extras can cost $19 to $37 a day. They often leave out keys, windscreens, tyres and underbody damage.

RentalCover starts from around $7 to $16 a day. Depending on the country, there may be no excess to pay.
