Rentomojo covers your repair costs, and you do not need to find a buyer when relocating to another city.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_cancel_my_AC_rental_anytime\"><\/span><b>Can I cancel my AC rental anytime?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, you can cancel the rented AC anytime on Rentomojo.
