Yes! We offer unlimited mileage rates for each vehicle class in addition to our 100-mile daily rates. Please see the specific vehicle pages for more information.
While many rental companies restrict the area of travel allowed (in order to limit their unlimited mileage exposure) we have no restrictions on travel in the United States or Canada. In fact, travel to Mexico is possible as well, but requires our prior approval, special documentation and Mexican auto insurance.
You must be at least 25 years old, have a valid drivers license, and a major credit or debit card on which we can preauthorize charges. All drivers must be at least 21 years old.
At RENTAVAN, we do not do any overbooking, so the credit card authorization assures that you will have a van available. So long as the vehicle is used (or canceled with at least 24 hours notice) the one-day rental charge will not be processed.
The van will be full of gas when you pick it up and we ask that you return it full. If the van is not full upon return, we will fill it, add a $5.00 service charge and add the cost to your total charges.
Because individual policies differ, we encourage customers to call their insurance agents to find out if their coverage extends to rental vehicles. If you have your own coverage, you can decline ours. We offer a Physical Damage Waiver (PDW) for $29.99 per day, which has a $0 deductible. This PDW includes Loss of Use. Loss of Use is also available separately for $4.95 per day.
By offering late-model, lower-mileage vehicles, we minimize potential mechanical issues. However, there is always a chance that a problem may occur. We have a 24-hour answering service that you can reach by calling our business number. The answering service will put you in contact with one of us and we will assist you as quickly as possible.
Vans are available for pick up at our Lincoln home office:
We provide a key drop for our customer’s convenience. However, customers are responsible for the condition of the vehicle until the next business morning and the first opportunity for the vehicle to be checked in by a RENTAVAN employee.
We do have parking available and many customers leave their vehicles on our lots. Our lots are not fenced, locked or protected by security, so this is at your own risk.
We will clean the inside and outside of the van upon its return. However, there is the potential for a clean-up charge if the van is returned excessively dirty, inside or out. We will charge a fee if exterior window paint is used on the van.
We have a no-smoking policy that we strictly enforce. There will be a $100.00 charge if a vehicle is smoked in. We will also carefully inspect for any damage related to smoking (e.g. cigarette burns on upholstery).
