for directions on where you wish to go.

Can I rent a Car in USA and drop it off in Canada or Mexico 
No, If you rent a car from a location in USA you must drop it off in the USA also. By using the one way rental scheme you may be able to drop it off at a 
rental location near the border.

Can I take my car into Canada or Mexico.
This is permissable from certain locations, please ask us when booking. Please tell the rental location that this is your intention so that they can give you 
any necessary papers. You will need to return your car to USA.

One Way rentals.
This term covers the situation where you collect a vehicle from one of the car hire company's locations and return it to another. Not all car groups are 
allowed for one way rentals. One Way rentals must be prebooked showing collection and drop off locations. Dollar and Alamo no extra charge is made for this 
if both the locations are in Florida or California. There is also no charge between certain locations on Nevada and Utah and California. Elsewhere in USA 
One way rentals are usually possible between locations owned by Dollar/Thrifty and Alamo (not franchisee locations) but a fee is charged depending on the 
distnace between locations. Up to 200 miles $50, 200-500 miles $100, 500- 100 miles $300, over 1000 miles $500. 


GPS Satnavs
Can be hired. This should be arranged when collecting the car and costs $10 a day.


Child seat/booster seat.
Every location has child seats and booster seats available for hire. These should be requested at the time of booking and the hire charge should be paid 
when collecting the car.

Fuel
You will be responsible for the fuel used during the rental. Please clarify with the rental location at the time of pick-up the policy on fuel. The usual 
policy is that the car is provided with a full tank of fuel, for which you are charged, when you collect the vehicle and you are told to return the car as 
empty as possible. Another method is to collect the car with a full tank and return it with a full tank paying for the fuel direct to the garage as you go 
along. The problem with this is that if you return the car not full you will be charged a hefty premium for the cost of the filling the tank up. We also 
give most renters the opportunity of Platinum rates which include the cost of the initial tank of fuel.

Insurance, tax and other fees.
 These are all included in our rates and you should not be charged any extras (except Orlando where the airport authorities 
make a small charge).

Why do I have to give my credit card details
The car rental company is trusting you with a car which has a value in excess of $20,000 so it is reasonable for the car rental company to ask for some security.  Your card will only be charged if the car is not returned on time, for willful damage, traffic/parking offences and other expenses which you incur.
