Top tips for renting a car in New Forest

  • Rather than there being a specific or favoured location, there are a variety of appropriate options around New Forest where a driver can find car hire providers. When picking up your car hire, make sure you choose somewhere that is easily accessible to you, as hire car businesses will usually request that you return the vehicle to the same location. Popular areas from which drivers can find car hire include Christchurch, Marchwood, Dibden, Testwood, Ocean Village and more.
  • New Forest, as well as the rest of the UK, are very strict and particular on their drink and drive limit. If you are planning to enjoy a drink in New Forest, then make sure to never exceed the drink-drive limit and always drive responsibly. Current law states that a man cannot exceed four units; this is the equivalent of two pints of regular strength beer. Women on the other hand cannot exceed three units; this is the equivalent of one large glass of wine or one pint of normal strength beer. Other factors also come into account with a drink-drive limit, so you can never be too careful.
  • To complete your car hire reservation, then make sure to bring the appropriate documentation to avoid any disappointment. Car providers are subject to changes in their regulations for the appropriate documentation, but a driver will always have to show proof of a full and valid driving licence that’s usually been held for at least one year. In addition, a driver must show proof of legitimate identification; an example of this is a passport. Other companies might also ask for proof of address, and appropriate examples include a utility bill or a bank card, among others.
