When booking your car hire in Balmaceda, keep in mind that Balmaceda and the surrounding area have rugged terrain, unpaved roads, and potentially challenging driving conditions. Opting for an SUV or a 4x4 vehicle can provide better traction, ground clearance, and stability on uneven or gravel roads. If a full 4x4 vehicle is not necessary for your planned routes, an AWD car can still offer improved handling and traction, especially during inclement weather or on rougher surfaces. You can also consider a vehicle with adequate ground clearance to navigate through potential uneven or unpaved roads without scraping the underside of the car.
In built-up areas or urban areas, the speed limit is usually 50 km/h (31 mph). This applies to streets within the town, residential areas, and areas with shops, schools, and housing. When travelling on rural roads or highways outside built-up areas, the speed limit is typically 100 km/h (62 mph). Some rural roads may have lower speed limits depending on specific road conditions, hazards, or urban developments. On major motorways, the speed limit is generally 120 km/h (75 mph), unless otherwise signposted.
Be aware that Balmaceda is a small town and so parking is very limited. However, there are some private car parks to choose from, located close to the airport, such as the Estacionamiento Balmaceda on Enrique Mac Iver Street. It is open every weekday from 08:30 to 16:30 and on the weekend from 09:00 to 16:30. You can expect it to cost about 3,000 CLP (around 3 GBP) a day to park in the private car park. However, if you have security concerns, then the car park can be a more secure choice than street parking.

Pros:
Pleasant, relatively hassle free (for Chile). Did not have any problems with the car. Return was straightforward, no quibbling.Cons:
They do provide proprietary insurance which does not however include unpaved roads, unfortunate when one considers that the vast majority of roads in this region are unpaved. The 18% VAT waiver for non-residents in lodging does not apply in the case of car rentals. Car rental (this is not directed at Europacar) is quite expensive in the entire region for understandable reasons, poor roads, crazy drivers, poor signage, etc. I suppose the above points are true of all firms industry wide and do not signal out Europacar which provided me with a well maintained car at a lower price than its competitors, courteous service without hassles or fuss.10.0 Wonderful

Some Balmaceda car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Balmaceda.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your Balmaceda car hire.
