Policy:
Navigation systems
Most of our vehicles do not come equipped with their own navigation systems. However, you can reserve our Garmin where2® GPS navigation unit at participating locations for a reasonable daily rate. Optional GPS units are displayed on Step 3 during your online reservation process.
Child Safety Seats
Available for infants and toddlers at most U.S. locations, Avis offers Child Safety Seats at a usual cost of $13.00/day or $65.00/week (5-7 days) with a maximum of $65.00/rental. Child safety seats will vary by type and brand depending upon the individual location.
Child Safety Seats may be offered online at some locations, and the costs included in the Estimated Total. The charge may be confirmed at the rental counter when you pick up your vehicle and will be included in your rental agreement.
Additionally, if changes are needed after completing the online reservation, only customer service or the counter agent can make modifications.
Child seats must be returned to the original renting location or an additional $15 fee will apply to the rental. Failure to return the seat in the same condition as received (minus normal wear and tear) may result in a $50 additional charge.
Ski Racks and Snow Tires
Avis offers ski racks and snow tires on selected vehicles in some U.S. locations.
Car Insurance:
Renters may (in many locations) purchase additional liability insurance at the time of rental. The Avis renter is responsible for all damage or theft of the Avis vehicle subject to certain exclusions contained in the Avis rental agreement.
For an additional fee, Avis will waive or limit the renter's liability through the purchase of a Loss Damage Waiver at the time of rental. In some cases, renters may be covered for loss or damage to the renter vehicle by their personal insurance or charge card. Such coverage may contain a deductible or may not be primary. Please check with your insurance company or credit card company before you rent.
