Weighing The Cost Of A Car Seat And Stroller Rental Maui Businesses Offer Against Buying Or Bringing

By Thomas Walker


Taking trips with little kids has all kinds of challenges. If you plan to travel to Hawaii by plane and rent a car for example, you have to make decisions about whether to rent the baby equipment you need, bring it on the plane with you, or buy it once you arrive. Sometimes the car seat and stroller rental Maui businesses offer is a good idea and other times it makes more sense to do something else.

When you decide to rent baby equipment the easiest way to do it is to add the cost into the daily cost of the vehicle you'll be renting. You can do this when you make the reservation. Agencies generally charge anywhere from eight to fifteen dollars a day for the extra cost. Depending on how long you are renting the car, you may be able to get a discount. One major agency offers AAA members a free seat with a reservation.

Parents who consider using the agency's equipment say the seats they see are pretty basic. The agencies offer safety guarantees. You are depending on the credibility and integrity of the individual business however.

You can get a written guarantee from one of the major leasing companies. The guarantee states that the company only purchases equipment that meets or exceeds federal and state regulations. It also states each leasing office inspects seats for defects and missing parts. The seats are supposedly stored in plastic bags to keep them in the best possible condition.

You never want to choose quick over safe, but as long as you have inspected the equipment and feel it's safe, renting might be the most economical and convenient option. This is especially true when you will be using the rentals for just a few days and don't want the hassle of taking your own seats with you.

When renting a vehicle isn't in the plan, or you don't like the idea of renting equipment from one of these companies, there are businesses that rent equipment in certain cities. The cost will run anywhere from ten to sixty dollars a day. They often have a better selection of brands and sizes than the car rental agencies. This can be a good option for a quick trip, but you have to weigh the daily fee with what is would cost to buy a brand new seat if you are on an extended trip.

Sometimes it makes more economic sense to buy something when you get to your destination. What to do after you get off the plane, but before you have a seat can be a problem. Parents who have done this suggest renting a car with a seat and heading for the nearest big box store. You can buy what you need there and install it.

Once that's done the agency rental can be returned. You will still have to pay for the day, but that cost is minimal. If you have a stroller car seat combination, it often makes sense to just bring it with you and deal with the hassle of getting it on and off the plane as best you can
