AVIS / BUDGET GROUP IMPORTANT NEWS:

When a customer extends a rental it often has an impact on an existing reservation for another client.

LATE FEE

$10.00 per day will be charged to renters when returning their car if the actual check in date/time is greater than seven hours of the expected check in date/time.

For Example:

The customer was due to return the vehicle at 9am on March 1, but returns it at 5pm on March 1, the late return fee of $10 will apply.

The late return fee will apply for every 24 hours that renter is late. For example, the renter agreed to return the car by March 1 at 9am, but returns it on March 3 at 5pm. A late return fee of $20 will be charged. (the first $10 assessed after the seven hour grace period and the second $10 for each additional 24 hour time frame.

After three days have lapsed, the Loss Prevention Group works the overdue report and will add $50 recovery charge, in addition to the Late Fee of $10 per day. The late fee stops accruing when the $50 recovery fee is added.

RENTAL EXTENSION FEE

A rental extension fee of $10 per extension will apply if the new expected date and time is greater than seven hours from the previous agreed return date and time.

The rental extension fee and late fee are taxable.

At participating locations, Avis recently lowered the rental minimum age to 21 years old in all states except:

Rather than requiring customers to be 25 to rent, Avis now rents to customers between the ages of 21-24 with a valid credit card and driver's license. At time of rental, we will automatically apply an additional $27-per-day surcharge for these drivers.

New York State will continue to have a minimum age of 18 with a $110 surcharge per day for renters age 18-24.

Additionally, the following restrictions also will apply for renters between the ages of 21-24: Renters of luxury, Mini-Vans, 12-Passenger Vans, Specialty, and Full-Size SUVs, Premium SUVs will not be permitted.
