Many companies in Minsk offer rental and rental services for vehicles, including cars, buses , and minibuses. But often even the employees themselves do not think about the difference between the concepts of renting a car and renting a car. Although there are some differences between them. Let’s find out.
Car rental
Rental is a form of rental. That is, the concept of renting is broader, and rental means the transfer of a working car to the client. A car is provided for a specified amount for personal purposes, and the service period ranges from one day or more. The price is set daily.
The agreement is concluded between a company and a private (individual) person. In this case, the client must have a driver’s license with him, which will confirm his right to drive a vehicle.
Upon agreement, the client is provided with a rental car without a driver. Consequently, for the duration of the rental agreement, the car becomes yours, and you use it however you wish. You can travel on it to any point in Belarus and even beyond its borders, if this is established by agreement. At the same time, all responsibility for the safety of the car also falls on you.
According to the contract, the driver is responsible for damage to the car during an accident, for example. Current expenses, such as refueling or paid parking, are also a concern for the client.
Car rental is an excellent solution in cases when you urgently need to be in another city, for example. Trips outside the city or to the country will also be more profitable if you rent a car (rather than using a taxi service, for example). Or if you need to go about your business all day, making circles around the city. Or when your personal car is being repaired.
In all these cases, rental will be the ideal solution, because the car is at your complete disposal for relatively little money.
Car rent
The lease involves the provision of passenger transportation services . That is, the car is not transferred into “temporary possession” to the client, and the client acts as a passenger.
Renting a car always requires a driver.
That is, in essence, renting a car with a driver is closer to a taxi than renting without a driver.
But in the case of a taxi, you pay for the mileage, and in the case of a rental, you rent a car with a driver for a specific time – several hours, and pay for exactly that time.
The agreement is concluded between a company and an individual or legal entity (another company, organization) person.
Typically, clients turn to Korteg.by for car rental services in cases where they need:
- meet guests at the airport or train station
- organize transport support for any event, transport guests, etc.
- organize a wedding procession
- implement your own excursion program around Belarus and even abroad.
The advantages of the rental service include its convenience. You don’t need to worry about anything: you will be picked up at an appointed place, taken to your errands and delivered back – and all this will be on time. And also, unlike rental, the client does not need to worry about the safety of the car. Of course, the transport company bears all associated costs (fuel, parking).
Total
In legal acts, rent and car rental are synonymous. But for the convenience of ordering services, it is better to separate these concepts.
- Rental is the transfer of a car to a client for temporary use, with a daily payment. The client is his own driver, he is responsible for the safety of the car and bears the associated costs.
- Renting is the provision of a car with a driver to the client, payment is hourly. The client is a guest in the car, responsibility and expenses fall on the shoulders of the transport company.
