The Cardboard Box Travel Shop uses several reputable local and international car hire companies to supply our clients with rental vehicles. When deciding on which car to hire there are numerous factors you should take into account. Some things to think about are:
Basically we offer two methods of renting a vehicle: either with an excess; or with zero excess. Renting with an excess means paying a lower daily rate but assuming responsibility for damages to the vehicle (up to the excess amount). Renting with zero excess means paying a higher daily rate, but not paying for damage to the vehicle (effectively you are buying additional insurance).

Excess / Deductible When renting a car you will be required to put down an excess deposit (deductible). This is your maximum liability in the event of anything happening to the car while you are hiring it. You will be required to pay for any damage, including tyre and windscreen, that occurs to the rental vehicle up to the excess amount (renting with zero excess negates the need to pay for damages) The standard procedure for this deposit is as follows:
Which car to rent Most places are reachable in a normal sedan vehicle, but the more remote areas, such as Kaokoland and Bushmanland, require four wheel drive vehicles. Generally it is advisable to rent the largest car you can afford, driving on Namibia's grave roads can be reasonably taxing and the additional stability and ground clearance offered by larger vehicles does make things safer and easier. Camping Equipment Fully equipped vehicles are equipped with: a roof tent (two roof tents for a double cab), mattresses & mosquito net, bedding (on request), folding table, folding chairs, braai grid, braai (BBQ) set, coolbox, cooking utensils, cutlery, crockery, storage box, gas cooker with gas cylinder, gas lamp, spade, water and petrol canisters. |
