DAMAGE AND/OR LOSS TO THE VEHICLE

In the event of any loss or damage to the rented vehicle, the renter will be responsible for the full value of the vehicle. However, the following options are available to reduce his/her liability:

  • Option 1: Collision Damage Waiver (C.D.W.) In keeping with our company’s policy, renters are afforded the right to purchase a Collision Damage Waiver (C.D.W). This provision reduces the renter’s liability in the event of loss or damage to the rented automobile (any single event). Herein, the renter’s major credit card is used to guarantee the summation of the liability and rental amounts. Please see the table below for cost and liability details.
  • Option 2: Loss Damage Waiver (L.D.W.) The Loss Damage Waiver (L.D.W.) caters to zero liability protection to the renter in the event of loss or damage to the vehicle (any single event). L.D.W. is only applicable to rentals three (3) days and over. Please refer to the table below for the relevant prices
  • Option 3: Participating Credit Cards – The aforementioned coverages may be declined if the renter has a credit card that offers insurance coverage. It is their sole responsibility to ensure that this insurance coverage offered through their credit card will fully cover their rented vehicle. The following credit cards offer insurance coverage: the Gold and Platinum Master Cards issued in Canada and the World MasterCard from the United States. Please verify with your credit card company about these terms. Our rental agents will also obtain confirmation at the time of rental.Basic Third party liability is already covered under the quoted rates.

Each rental’s duration is within a 24 hour period window. This simply means that vehicles rented on a specific day at a specific time need to be returned the next day at the same time it was rented the day prior, e.g., a vehicle that is rented at 9:00am on Wednesday, will complete a rental day on Thursday at 9:00am. Though we offer an additional 1 hour grace period for rental returns at no additional cost, let it be noted that the additional 1 hour grace period afforded to renters must fall within our local hours of operation which is 6:30am-5:00pm, Monday through Sunday. Any time after this grace period is considered to be an additional day that carry subsequent fees.

This type of transaction will be processed in a two part way; first the renter will pay and sign an agreement for 30 days, then second, they will be given the option to renew the contract for the extra additional days they plan to use the vehicle for.
