When you choose Southgate Travels for your car rental needs, you're not just booking a vehicle—you’re trusting us with your comfort, time, and safety. Whether it’s an airport transfer, a wedding car rental, or a weekend road trip across Kerala, we ensure that every ride is safe, clean, and worry-free.
Here’s how we uphold the highest standards of hygiene and safety for every journey.
1. Routine Sanitization Before and After Every Trip
Your safety begins the moment you step into our vehicle.
-
Every car undergoes deep cleaning and disinfection before and after each rental.
-
We use hospital-grade disinfectants to wipe down high-touch areas including:
-
Steering wheels
-
Door handles (interior & exterior)
-
Gear knobs, seat belts, dashboards, and AC vents
-
-
Upholstery and floor mats are vacuumed and deodorized.
2. Weekly Deep Cleaning & Inspection Protocol
Beyond the daily sanitization:
-
Each vehicle undergoes a comprehensive deep-clean at least once a week.
-
We inspect the cabin air filters, AC performance, and sanitization levels using a maintenance checklist.
This ensures long-term cleanliness, especially for multi-day trips and wedding rentals.
3. Trained Chauffeurs Who Follow Safety Protocols
For chauffeur-driven rentals, our drivers are trained and monitored to follow strict hygiene protocols:
-
Mandatory use of face masks and hand sanitizers
-
Daily health check-ins
-
No-contact interactions for pickup and drop
-
Clean, uniformed appearance with a strong focus on customer courtesy
Your chauffeur is not just a driver—he’s a trained professional prioritizing your safety.
4. Regular Vehicle Servicing & Safety Checks
Safety doesn’t stop at cleanliness.
Our vehicles are serviced regularly to ensure mechanical reliability:
-
Brakes, lights, and tyre pressure are checked before every long trip
-
Engine diagnostics and oil checks every month
-
Emergency equipment (jack, stepney, triangle, etc.) is always present and functional
Whether you're driving to the hills or the beach, we make sure you’re road-ready.
5. In-Car Safety & Hygiene Essentials
Every Southgate Travels vehicle is stocked with:
-
Hand sanitizers
-
Disinfectant wipes
-
Disposable masks (on request)
-
Tissue boxes and fresh air fresheners
We make sure you don’t just travel—you travel with peace of mind.
6. Feedback-Driven Quality Control
After each ride, we encourage customers to share feedback on:
-
Vehicle cleanliness

Overall comfort
This helps us constantly improve and maintain our 5-star service reputation.
