Cross Border

Conditional:

Depending on which countries to bring the rental cars to, policies differ:
Mexico, Canada

A vehicle can be driven across the Canadian border at any time, no matter what location it was rented from. It is recommended to have PERS coverage when using vehicle in cross border rentals for the US and Canada. The renter must have a valid driver's license and rental record to cross the border into Canada. Canadian law does require that everyone entering the country have a passport, so everyone in the vehicle must have the proper identification. If a renter (including a Canadian resident) is driving a U.S. rented (and licensed in the U.S.) vehicle to Canada, it can only be driven across the border for up to 30 days unless an extension is requested from Customs at the time of entry.

Reviewed: Friday, January 3, 2025
The service at different branches of this company varies. This time, they didn't force me to buy full insurance, and the service was quite good. Both pickup and drop-off were quick. I once had an experience at a branch (seems like it was the Las Vegas location) where the staff insisted on purchasing full insurance. I was only renting for half a day, just driving from Las Vegas Airport to Los Angeles Airport, and the full insurance was more expensive than the rental itself. As the driver had over 10 years of experience with almost no violations, I didn't want full insurance, only basic coverage, and took responsibility myself. The staff didn't agree, and we almost had an argument until the manager came and allowed me to take just the basic insurance.
