Advantages of a rental car with a roof box

First of all, it goes without saying that using a car with a roof box gives you more space than without one. A car with a roof box is ideal for a week's winter sports or camping. It can accommodate luggage that is long or has special dimensions. Luggage that would otherwise require you to fold down the back seats. Think of skis and ski poles for winter sports or a tent with tent poles for camping.

Loading a car with a roof box

It is easy to just throw everything into the roof box at once. If it fits, it fits... right? With a roof box, this is not the case. It is essential that you load the car with a roof box carefully. The car's centre of gravity must remain as low as possible, so place all heavy items in the boot. In addition, the luggage in the roof box must be secured as well as possible to ensure that it does not slide around during the journey. After all, it would be a shame if a ski or tent disappeared along the way.

Winter sports with a roof box

Taking a roof box on your skiing holiday is a smart choice. After all, it allows you to store all your luggage and skiing or snowboarding equipment. To arrive at your winter sports destination comfortably and, above all, safely, it is wise to hire a car with winter tyres. These give you more grip during your journey. Are you going to Germany, Austria or France this winter? Please note: in some parts of these countries, driving with winter tyres on your car is mandatory. 

In addition, you can also hire a car with snow chains for harsh winter weather conditions. With DIKS hire cars, you can enjoy driving through the mountains to your ski destination. At DIKS Car Hire, you can not only hire a car for winter sports, but you can also choose to hire a bus for winter sports with all your friends.
