Your smaller vehicle from Nelson car rentals will improve agility, make navigating through narrow roadways easier, and boost your freedom when looking for parking spaces. Additionally, it will improve the comfort of driving in Nelson's urban setting.
When driving car rentals in Nelson, kindly follow the imposed speed limits. To ensure the security of pedestrians and children, school and church zones typically have posted speed limits of 30 km/h (20 mph). The recommended speed limit on the highways encircling the city is typically 80 km/h (50 mph), whereas the proposed speed limit in residential areas is often 30 km/h (18 mph). Always adhere to the posted speed limit when driving a Nelson car rental.
A garage is one of the greatest and safest places to keep a car especially when using car rentals in Nelson. It not only keeps the car safe but also can aid to protect it from the destruction caused by a lot of sunlight. Consider parking in Kinzett Terrace Carpark, Montgomery Square Carpark, or Wakatu Square Carpark. Parking rates will vary from place to place, but you should expect to pay an hourly rate.

Pros:
Staff at pick up in nelson was not there at 8am when i had organised pickup. She arrived 8.25am and proceeded to tell me she was in the office the whole time which she wasnt as it has glass doors. She was belligerent and rude. Staff at chch was fantastic. Really kind and caring man. Fabulous.Cons:
Yr nelson staff person was late. She was rude and unkind. I believe she would benefit from customer service training and some humility and owning about being late for work and not making excuses for this tardiness.10.0 Wonderful

Mar. 2020
Pros:
Drop off was simple.The vehicle was fine.Cons:
I booked it under your Webb site with the no excess option. But when we picked up the car, I had to sign the contract that had a $5500.00 x/s. I was not happy, and your staff said it was not there problem as it was insured with another company, not them, but as I told them it was booked thru the Firefly web site. The manager got involved but his answer was not our problem and said give me the keys back and get a rental from another company. The final insult was when I had to pay another $200.00 just in case I didn’t fill the car upon my return. I did fill the tank on my return. I am still waiting on the 200.00 to be refunded. Overall a very disappointing and stressful experience. Mary and Dennis Hunt.One location in Nelson
