Conn's Briefing #39 - Returning The Hertz Rental Car - Part 3

Arrival at the Hertz Return Location
 
When you were checking your Rental Agreement be sure you check to see if you added the FPO (Fuel Purchase Option) which means you agreed to purchase the fuel that was in the tank.  If you did, you can return the car with a less than full tank.  Most folks who elect this option enjoy the convenience of not having to find a service station before you return the car.
 
If your plan was to return the car with a full tank of fuel then before you reach the Hertz return location you will need to find a service station close to where you will return the car and ‘top-up’ the tank.  If you are within a few miles of the Hertz return location and ‘top-up’ the fuel to ‘full’ then you should be OK for no refueling charge when you turn in the car.
 
The next item is to find where you need to return the car.  On the Rental Agreement it will show the return location you advised when you made the reservation and the time you need to return the car,
 
Here are the more popular return locations with their hours of operation and their GPS coordinates.

When you arrive at the return location you will be met by a Hertz staff member who will check-in your rental car.  He will take mileage and fuel readings and then inspect the car.  He will hand you a receipt (Statement of Charges) that shows the charge to your credit/debit card.
 
In my next briefing I will show you what a Statement of Charges looks like and explain each line item.
 
Ireland has many reputable car rental companies from which to choose. My preference has been Hertz Ireland with Irish owners and based on Wexford. Conn’s Ireland Car Rental has had a relationship with them for many, many years.
 
If you do your homework you can have a great car rental experience.
