Before You Rent

Verify the Owner
Check the owner's profile, verification status, and reviews from previous renters. Always communicate through the platform.
Read the Listing Carefully
Review all vehicle details, including features, restrictions, mileage limits, and cancellation policy before booking.
Ask Questions
Don't hesitate to message the owner about anything unclear - pickup location, fuel policy, insurance coverage, or vehicle condition.

Vehicle Inspection Checklist

Exterior: Check for scratches, dents, and damage. Take photos before driving.
Tires: Check tire pressure and tread condition. Ensure spare tire is present.
Lights: Test headlights, brake lights, turn signals, and hazard lights.
Fluids: Check oil, coolant, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid.
Interior: Check seats, seatbelts, air conditioning, and entertainment system.
Documents: Verify registration, insurance papers, and emergency contact numbers.
Document Everything
Take clear photos and videos of the vehicle's condition before pickup. This protects both you and the owner in case of disputes.

On the Road Safety

Always Wear Seatbelts
Ensure all passengers wear seatbelts at all times. It's the law and your best protection in an accident.
Obey Speed Limits
Follow posted speed limits. Adjust speed for road conditions, especially on rural or mountainous roads.
No Distracted Driving
Never use your phone while driving. Pull over safely if you need to make a call or check navigation.
Weather Awareness
Check weather forecasts. Drive cautiously in rain, fog, or after dark. Use headlights in poor visibility.

Papua New Guinea Road Safety Tips

Road Conditions
Be prepared for varying road conditions. Highlands roads can be challenging; 4WD recommended for remote areas.
Watch for Animals
Be alert for livestock and wildlife on roads, especially in rural areas and during dawn/dusk hours.
Fuel Stops
Plan fuel stops ahead. Service stations can be sparse in remote areas. Keep tank at least half full.
Emergency Kit
Carry water, food, first aid kit, flashlight, and basic tools. Mobile coverage may be limited in remote areas.

Returning the Vehicle

Fuel Policy
Return the vehicle with the agreed fuel level. Usually "full-to-full" - avoid extra charges by filling up before return.
Clean the Vehicle
Remove all personal belongings and trash. A quick clean can help avoid cleaning fees.
Final Inspection
Do a final walk-around with the owner. Take photos of the vehicle's condition at return for your records.
Leave a Review
Share your experience! Honest reviews help other renters and reward great owners.
