Can I rent a car in one location and drop it in another in Birmingham?
Yes, ONE WAY RENTALS are possible. It means you pick up your rented car in one location and drop it off in a different one. In order to see the possibility, please check our website and enter a different location for the drop-off. In some cases, you can also choose a different country to drop off the car. The local supplier needs to bring the car back to the original destination. Therefore, they will charge you an extra fee on arrival. Some rental car agencies do have the ONE WAY fee included in the rental price. Others will charge is as an extra on arrival. We always recommend checking terms and conditions for the selected agency to see if it is included or not.
What is the fuel policy of the car rental company in Birmingham?
The fuel policy depends on the rental car supplier. They have it written clearly in the terms and conditions shown on our website. There is also a filter option to choose which fuel policy you prefer. The most common fuel policy is FULL TO FULL - you will receive the car with the fuel tank. To avoid fuel charges, you will need to return it with the same amount of fuel as it was given. The missing fuel will be charged on return REPURCHASE FUEL - the car will be supplied with a full tank for which you will be charged at the rental desk. You can use as much fuel as need. No refund will be given on unused fuel. Please, always check the fuel policy before you decide to rent the car.
Is the insurance included in the rental price?
Please, note that usually full insurance will not be included in the rental rate. The type of insurance which is included in your rental rate depends on your residence country, the location where you are renting and on the local car rental supplier. We strongly recommend entering terms and conditions for the selected location and car rental agency and read them carefully in order to learn which type of insurance is included in the rental rate. You can also find an additional type of insurance which is offered by the local supplier. For some quotes we do offer a full comprehensive refund insurance you can purchase on our website. More information you will see online.
What does SHUTTLE BUS mean?
SHUTTLE BUS is an option which some rental car agencies offer in order to pick up the car. On our website, you can select a local supplier directly located at the airport. However, SHUTTLE BUS is a free bus or minibus service provided by the local car rental agency. The bus can be easily found in the front of the arrival hall and will take you to the car rental office in order to pick up your car. If you have any difficulties with finding the SHUTTLE BUS of your rental car agency on arrival, please call the telephone number from the local company on your car rental voucher. They will instruct you on how to find the bus and arrive at the office.
What is Collision Damage Waiver with excess?
Collision Damage Waiver it is a damage insurance coverage that is available and usually included in the rental rate. The Collision Damage Waiver most likely has an excess amount, which you will be responsible for. The security deposit will be blocked at your credit card on arrival at the local office. The deposit is an amount for which you can be held liable in case of damage/theft of the vehicle. It means that the particulate amount of money can be taken from the blocked if you cause any damage to the car during the car rental period. Damage to or loss of tires, windscreens, glass, and undercarriage may not be covered by the Collision Damage Waiver. When the car is returned in the same conditions as it was picked up from the office your security will be unblocked.
