CARNINA

Monthly car rental in Palo Alto

CARNINA rents cars by the month from its office at 855 El Camino Real, Suite 13A, Palo Alto. It's a middle ground between a short rental and buying or leasing — useful for a new role, an internship, a relocation or while your own car is away.

Why monthly instead of daily

Daily rental rates add up fast over several weeks. A monthly rental gives you one predictable monthly rate, with routine maintenance and registration included, and a term from 2 to 24 months. You arrange your own insurance, which CARNINA approves before handover.
