Valencia: car rental without deposit and credit card [GUIDE]
Valencia is a beautiful, interesting and engaging city, but limiting yourself to visiting the city itself during your stay in Valencia would be a huge waste. The region in which Valencia is located is full of beautiful and worth visiting places. The best way to freely explore this part of Spain is to rent a car from a rental company. The choice of rental companies is large, which means there is a lot of competition and the prices can be really excellent. The best time in terms of price is, of course, outside the peak season. Then it can be really cheap. In the season it is like everywhere else, i.e. more expensive.

A short instruction for the intemperate
I'll start with a short guide to renting a car without a deposit and without a credit card, a quick guide for the impatient. Just follow the few simple steps below and you're ready to start looking.If you are a group of very impatient people, you want to start looking for a car quickly and you prefer short video instructions, I recommend the YouTube video below, which presents and explains the most important things.
If questions and doubts arise during the search, look for answers further in the text. The text is long and contains a lot of useful information. I divided it into several logical parts and included links to them at the end of the post. I consciously constructed it this way. You can read it piece by piece, selecting the part that interests you, or read it in its entirety. However, the most important thing is to search quickly.

Local rentals
If you prefer to rent directly from a specific rental company, I can recommend two good, proven and attractively priced rental companies in Valencia:- Wiber - [click]
- Centauro - [click]
Both rental companies offer rentals without a credit card and without a deposit at very attractive prices (these options are already included in the rental price) and both have pickup points close to the airport. Customers are transported to the rental office by free, comfortable buses that run every 10 - 15 minutes.

Material liability, insurance, own contribution, deposits and deposits
When the rental company hands over the car to you, you are also responsible for its condition for the duration of the rental. It's clear!What is the scope of this responsibility? It's not so clear anymore!
Financial responsibility is mandatory, but can it be significantly reduced? Or maybe you can throw it away completely?
It's possible, but you have to see how!

Additional charges and their reasons
Additional fees incurred when renting a car (especially those charged after the car is returned) are often a source of frustration for many rental customers. They can be prevented, but first you need to know where such fees come from and what may be their cause. I gathered situations I knew together in one text and described them. It's really worth reading this post!How to avoid additional fees at a car rental company - [click]
