Rental Auto Insurance Worcester, Massachusetts MA

Reader’s Question:

I’m planning to rent a car for just one month and I found a rental company in the yellow pages but I think their insurance is very expensive (at $25 per day, it adds $900 to my costs). I’ve already spoken with my credit card company if they offer auto insurance in Worcester, Massachusetts for a rental car. Do you have any suggestions on other what options I have for insuring a rental car for one month?

First talk to your car insurance agent about a driver which would cover any at fault crash you would have with a rental vehicle for a month. If you’re looking for suggestions, they’re the best source.

It seems you will lose big amount of money without a return. Well, I think it’s much better for you to do some research. Look around for other insurance companies in Worcester, Massachusetts that offer cheap rates if they’re catering this kind of services. Collect quotes and select the best car insurance for car rental.

Your personal car insurance may have a minimal rider attached to it. There are some credit card companies that have programs covering insurance for you. If you are travelling domestically, I suggest using your credit card and declining the rental coverage. If travelling internationally get the insurance through the rental company - it can be a nightmare to deal with this sort of claim. Your personal insurance may usually cover rentals depending on the specifics of your car insurance policy. Otherwise, usually they charge you 15 to 20 bucks and you can walk away if you total it.
