What are the Insurance Costs for Renting a Car from Hertz?Tim asks: re: insurance costs for renting a car from Hertz
I'm interested in renting a car from Hertz and I have priced the car but it does not list the extra costs that they always surprise you with at the front desk. I know there are insurance costs but don't know how much. I will be driving to another state and back so I wanted to get a breakdown and not have to scramble for extra money to cover especially since I will have to pay for gas. My Response: You most likely would be looking to get prices for LDW for the rental car. That is the rental car insurance coverage that Hertz sells that will cover you for any loss or damage to the rental car (provided you've complied with all terms of your rental agreement). If you look at the rental qualifications and requirements link (on the bottom page of step 3 on a rate quote on Hertz.com) Hertz states: The cost of LDW may vary depending on location or car type and is charged per each full or partial day of rental. Renters are not required to purchase LDW or any other optional service as a condition of rental with Hertz. A renters own personal insurance or credit cards may offer comparable coverage and you should check to see if you already have any protection against loss or damage to the Hertz rental car.
