Do I need a deposit to hire a car in the U.S. while my vehicle is being repaired?
Yes. The deposit amount varies by location. If you are paying for the car hire or if a direct bill has not been set up through an insurance company, local deposit rules apply. Local deposit rules can be found by starting a reservation on enterprise.com.
- Select "Start a Reservation"
- Choose your car hire location, dates and times
- Click on "Terms & Conditions/Policies" located in the top right corner
- Click on the "Car Hire Requirements" policy
In the event billing has been confirmed with an insurance company, we may ask for a small deposit. It is usually lower than the standard amount. If you are responsible for a portion of the car hire, the deposit can be applied to the balance and any remaining funds can be refunded once the car hire is returned and billing is finalised with the insurance company. Check with the Enterprise location you are hiring from for details.
