Miami Cruise Port Car Rental: What You Need to Know

miami cruise port car rental

Book Your Next Amazing Cruise with Travel Leader, Jeffrey Cleary

Looking for the best car rental for PortMiami? We have all the information you need for getting the best rates on a rental car near one of  Florida’s busiest cruise ports . We provide you with the most up-to-date information about Miami cruise port car rentals, with tips and tricks to help you save money.

Car rental is the most convenient way to get around during your Miami cruise vacation. There are plenty of car rental companies serving thousands of cruisers who arrive and depart from the port of Miami each week on a Caribbean cruise.

There is no regular public transport for getting around Miami apart from taxis, Uber, Lyft and airport shuttles. Consequently, most people opt for Miami cruise port car rentals if they are staying a few extra days, so they can get around and enjoy the sights. 

We compare all the leading car rental services offered near Miami cruise port to help you find the best deal.

Who needs a Miami Cruise Port Car Rental?

There are many reasons why people need a Miami cruise port car rental. Although Miami Airport (MIA) is a 15-minute taxi ride away, many cruisers find that the best way to reach Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport or Orlando Airport is by picking up a car rental from the port and driving to one of these major airports in Southwest Florida.

PortMiami Terminal

Some cruisers may want to spend a few days exploring Miami, South Beach and the surrounding area pre- or post-cruise. They need the convenience and flexibility of a rental car to get from Miami cruise port to their hotel, and to explore the area during their stay. 

Our guide covers all the available options, including a few you have probably never considered, so let’s get started!

Where to Find Miami Cruise Port Car Rentals

The port of Miami does not have onsite car rental as space on Dodge Island is at a premium. However, there are plenty of car rental companies at nearby locations. Whatever your car preference, you’ll have plenty of choice when considering Miami cruise port car rentals. From luxury car rentals, SUVs and vans to compact and economy vehicles,  there’s something to suit every cruiser.

Car Rental Offices

Most of the main car rental companies in Miami have one or more centers close to the port or at Miami International Airport, just 9 miles away. Some car rental companies also have offices on South Beach, just six miles from the Port of Miami. However, the closest car rental locations to Miami cruise port are in downtown, with a convenient pick-up and drop-off location less than two miles from the port.

Getting the Lowest Price for your Miami Cruise Port Car Rental

It’s always worth shopping around to get the best price for your Miami cruise port car rental. To get a speedy personal quote, click one of our links below and fill in the details, including the required dates, pick-up and drop-off points. You can also phone car rental offices near Miami cruise port and confirm a price before booking.

Here are some money-saving tips when choosing car rentals near Miami port:

  • Bear in mind that there is usually a surcharge for one-way car rentals. That means if you are picking up a car rental near Miami cruise port and dropping it off at Fort Lauderdale Airport, for example, the rental company will add a one-way charge to the daily rate.
  • You may be charged more for additional drivers. By choosing one designated driver, you could save money.
  • If you book your ahead of time, you can save money by paying up-front and taking a “no cancelation” option. However, if there is any possibility that you may need to cancel your car rental, it’s worth paying a few dollars more to have the money-back cancelation option.
  • Never take your rental car back late as you will incur surcharges. If you have a problem, call the company and extend your agreement
  • Insurance options can affect the price you pay for your car rental. Paying a voluntary deductible for damage and declining personal accident insurance can significantly lower the price of your Miami cruise port car rental.
  • Finally, you will need to decide whether you want to return your rental car with a full tank of fuel, or not. If you opt to bring the car back without filling up the gas tank, you usually pay more per gallon, or have a service charge added. You can gamble with the “pick-up full – return low” fixed price, but make sure you don’t run out of gas on that all-important journey to the cruise ship. The cheapest option is usually to pick-up and return the car with a full gas tank. There are plenty of gas stations close to Miami cruise port, or wherever your drop-off point is, to fill up with gas before returning the car.

Using SunPass with your Miami Cruise Port Car Rental

Most Miami cruise port rental cars come with a  SunPass  or use Toll-by-Plate , which makes getting around the city very quick and easy. Many major routes in Miami charge a toll.

hese include the Florida Turnpike, Sawgrass expressway (part of SR 869), I-75 East and West, and the Dolphin Expressway (SR-836), which connects the port of Miami with the airport.

Most Miami toll roads charge fees by transponder or Toll-by-Plate. Having a SunPass, E-Pass or E-Z Pass payment facility linked to your car rental agreement means that you can drive through the toll lanes at plazas on dedicated lanes without stopping. Overhead gantries will scan your SunPass receiver or your car rental registration plate (TOLL-BY-PLATE) and charge the toll fee accordingly.

Florida SunPass

If your SunPass responder is switched off, or your car rental does not have one, you will need to stop frequently and make the payments in cash or by credit/debit card.

On the I-95, a SunPass transponder allows drivers to use Florida Express Lanes which will help you avoid getting held up in traffic at busy times. If you have a cruise or plane to catch, using these optional express lanes is recommended.

The tolls start at 54 cents and up for Sunpass and 80 cents for Toll-by-Plate. The tolls are charged to the account associated with your rental car. They will be deduced from your credit card by your car rental company. It’s a small price to pay to keep you on schedule and avoid any last minute panic.

Getting from PortMiami to the Car Rental Office

When you disembark from the cruise ship, there are plenty of taxis lined up waiting to transport you to the airport, hotel or local car rental office. No need to pre-book your taxi; it will all be taken care of as part of your pre-booked  disembarkation process .

Some taxi fares are fixed, such as to Miami International Airport, where you can find a wide choice of car rentals available. However, bear in mind you will pay an airport surcharge if you pick up your car rental from the airport rather than from a downtown office.

Carnival Cruise Ships Docked in Miami

If you have already booked your rental from a local office in downtown Miami, you may need a taxi to get there. Always check that the taxi has the meter running to ensure you are not overcharged.

Also Read:  All You Need to Know About Miami Cruise Parking

Most major companies provide shuttle buses to transfer customers between Miami cruise port and the car rental depot. Check out the info below to see which Miami cruise port car rentals offer this service.

Shuttles to and from offices may be complimentary, or there may be a fixed price per passenger. Unless you are traveling as a large group, it generally works out cheaper to take the shuttle bus rather than paying for a taxi.

Miami car rental information

Cheap car rentals in miami, kayak’s top tips for renting a car in miami.

  • If you’d like to tour as many Miami attraction sites as you can, it’s in your best interest to rent a vehicle. This is because, with a car from one of the reliable and cheap car rentals in Miami, you’ll be able to move from one destination to another faster than if relying on public transport. Fairchild Tropical Botanical Garden and The Bass are among the most popular destinations in Miami. If you choose to cover the 9 miles that separate these destinations aboard connecting passenger buses, you’ll take 30 to 45 minutes to complete your journey. However, with a rental car, you’ll only take 15 minutes.
  • Miami is one of the most populous cities in the USA. Thus, it’s no surprise that it normally has massive rush hour traffic from 7 am to 9 am and 4 pm to 7 pm all through the week. If you get caught in traffic during either of these periods, you may not be able to visit all the destinations you’d like to. Therefore, it’s advisable that you travel to the destinations you’d like to visit before or after the stated rush hours. If you have to drive your rental car during rush hour, try to avoid the Palmetto Expressway, I-95, Florida’s Turnpike, and the US-1, as these highways experience the worst rush hour traffic in the city.
  • Miami International Airport boasts a remarkable car center. It is located on the 3rd level between the Dolphin and Flamingo garages. To get to this center, you can board one of the movers present at the airport’s Mover Station. Miami Car Rental Center is home to notable car rentals in Miami like Advantage Rent A Car, Avis, Ace Rent A Car, Alamo, Budget, Hertz, Royal, and Sixt Rent A Car. Given that there are plenty of options you can rent from, you can rest assured that you will find cheap car rentals in Miami once you land.
  • Car rental in Miami is a must if you want to fit in to the glitz and extravagance known as the Magic City. Don Johnson and Philip Thomas were never seen driving a suburban car, much less catching public transport, and neither should you be. Miami is the city to rent a beautiful car and feel great driving it.
  • The Miami International Airport (MIA) Rental Car Center is easily accessed upon your arrival by taking a connecting shuttle bus from the MIA Mover station, located on the 3rd level between the Dolphin and Flamingo garages. MIA is located conveniently close to downtown Miami, only five miles north and 13 miles west of Miami Beach. This means you will be off the plane and at your destination in no time at all, with a long list of rental companies such as Alamo, Hertz, Avis, and Thrifty to choose from.
  • The State of Florida has many highways with tolls including the Airport Expressway (State Road 112). These toll roads require prepayment on what is called a SunPass and can add unexpected extra costs to your travel if you don’t research in advance. To avoid these expenses, look closely over the conditions of your car rental and choose the company with the policy that best reflects your needs.
  • Be careful when planning your driving routes through downtown Miami, as rush hour can cause significant traffic congestion along major roads. Major expressways such as the I-95, US-1, and 836 (Dolphin Expressway) will be clogged up between 7 am and 9 am and 3 pm - 7:30 pm. Your driving experience around downtown will be much quicker and enjoyable if you avoid Biscayne Boulevard, Collins Avenue, and Ocean Drive during the peak periods of traffic.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Miami for $25 or less
  • Book your rental car in Miami at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Intermediate rental cars in Miami are around 14% cheaper than other car types, on average

Where are the best places to park in Miami?

You can efficiently pay for these lots or other street parking with the PaybyPhone app available for both iOS and Android.

Good to know, renting a car and driving in miami.

Driving in Miami can be an adventure. But if you know where to go, how to navigate the roads, and, most importantly, what kind of car to drive, it can be altogether fun – if you can handle the traffic.

Driving is inherently part of the Miami experience. Fantasies of gliding over the causeways to Miami Beach, top-down and shades on, are part of what brings millions of people to the city every year. Of course, like many fantasies, the ones about driving in Miami are decidedly different from reality. Still, renting the car of your dreams is easy in the Magic City, and once you have it, you’ll find that it makes exploring the city infinitely easier.

Mandatory paperwork to rent a car on miami.

Licensing and mandatory paperwork to rent a car in Miami: Assuming you have a valid driver’s license, anyone from the United States or Canada can rent a car in Miami. You must provide your physical license at the time of rental, and it must be in good standing.

Types of cars available for rent in Miami

The glut of Lamborghinis, Ferraris, and other exotic cars that you see cruising down the strip in South Beach are by and large rented. This means that if you have a few hundred dollars and want to live like you’re in a music video for a few hours, Miami can make that dream come true. The city boasts plenty of exotic car rental agencies, many located right near the airport or in South Beach. Miami also has all the usual car rental companies right at the airport, who offer everything from compact economy cars to luxury sedans and SUVs. Your best bet is to poke around on KAYAK and see who has the car you’re looking for.

Where to get a car rental at Miami International Airport

Miami International Airport ’s rental car center is conveniently located in the Miami Intermodal Center, accessible via the MIA Mover from the main terminal. Follow the pink signs in baggage claim and take an elevator to the third floor, cross a small sky bridge, and listen to the sound of chirping birds. This is the soundtrack of the MIA Mover’s airport station, where trains arrive every minute or so. Take the train over to the Intermodal Center, and most rental car companies are just a few steps from the train. Some offsite exotic and discount car rental agencies run shuttles from the Intermodal Center to their lots.

Is it possible to rent a car in Miami and drive elsewhere?

Of course, it is. Consult with your rental car’s terms and conditions, but most will allow you to drive anywhere in the U.S. at no extra charge. That said, if you drop the car off in another city, you will usually incur a drop fee.

Everything you need to know about car insurance in Miami

Car rental companies will try to sell you a collision damage waiver, or CDW when you rent your car. While it will protect the car you’re renting and property damage up to certain limits, if you have comprehensive collision coverage on your car, it will likely cover your rental car as well. Also, most major credit cards offer rental car insurance coverage if you rent the car using their card.

Good things to know about renting a car in Miami

You can buy your own SunPass and save considerable money on the rental car company’s toll fees. They’re available at Publix grocery stores and CVS and take less than 10 minutes to set up.

Miami, and most of Florida, is filled with toll roads. The tolls are payable via a SunPass, which rental car companies will rent you for varying fees. Some will charge you a flat rate per day for all the tolls you can rack up. Some will charge you a fee per toll, plus the toll charge itself. If you don’t agree to rent their SunPass, you’ll be charged via toll-by-plate, which incurs a hefty administrative charge from the rental car company for every toll you go through.

If you’re planning to drive much around South Florida, renting a SunPass from the rental car company is probably a good idea. Even the expressways from the airport to South Beach and Downtown have tolls, so you’ll be paying one way or another.

What you should know about driving in Miami

Driving in Miami can be challenging, especially if you are not used to the local conditions. The hot climate and diverse mix of drivers from various places can make the roads seem chaotic at times. However, with a bit of caution and awareness, you can navigate the roads safely.

It’s worth noting that turn signals are not always used, so it’s important to be vigilant and anticipate sudden lane changes. Some drivers may also merge into traffic without warning, so it’s essential to keep a safe following distance. Occasionally, traffic may be delayed due to accidents or incidents on the road, but this is not uncommon in any city.

Parking your car in Miami

Miami, and Miami Beach especially is filled with areas deemed residential parking only. Read signs word for word and think long and hard about whether parking there is legal. If it’s not, you will be towed almost immediately, and end up paying anywhere from $250-$500, in cash, to get your car back.

Beyond that, most parking spaces are payable through the PayByPhone , ParkMobile and ParkME apps, which you can download via a posted QR code. Miami Beach has several municipal parking garages that are considerably cheaper than parking on the street and are covered from heat and rain.

Fuel and gas stations in Miami

Miami has plenty of gas stations, though the ones in Miami Beach and near the airport are generally a dollar or more per gallon more expensive than the rest of the city. Coral Way (SW 22nd Street) between Downtown and Coral Gables has some of the best prices. As does Bird Road (SW 40th Street) west of the Palmetto Expressway.

Seasonal driving tips in Miami

Summer thunderstorms in Miami are no joke, and you may frequently find yourself leaving your hotel under a cloudless sky, then 30 minutes later driving in a blinding thunderstorm. Drive especially slow or pull over altogether. Also, the city floods almost instantly during severe storms, and some streets may have a foot or more of water in them. This is especially true in Brickell and parts of Miami Beach. Do not try to drive through these areas or you will damage your car.

Use of this CID by individuals other than eligible renters is prohibited and may result in disciplinary action. Renters using this CID may be required to show proof of employment or authorization (such as a business card, current email with company domain, work order, etc.). Questions about acceptable proof of employment or authorization should be directed to your Travel Manager.

If the renter accepts DW, Enterprise waives or reduces the renters responsibility for loss of, or damage to, the rental vehicle including but not limited to towing, storage, loss of use, administrative fees and-or diminishment of value subject to the terms and conditions of the rental agreement and applicable laws. DW is not insurance. The purchase of DW is optional and not required to rent a car. The protection provided by DW may duplicate the renters existing coverage. Enterprise is not qualified to evaluate the adequacy of the renters existing coverage therefore the renter should examine his or her credit card protections, automobile insurance policies or other sources of coverage that may duplicate the protection provided by DW.

This option allows the renter to pay Enterprise at the end of the rental for gas used but not replaced. Price per gallon will be higher than local fuel prices.

Driver's License Information

Customers who reside in the United States, U.S. Territories, or Canada

Customers who reside in the U.S., U.S. Territories, or Canada must present a valid, unexpired government-issued Driver’s license which includes a photograph of the customer.  Digital licenses are not accepted.  The driver's license must be valid for the entire rental period.

Members of the United States Armed Forces who are on active duty may present an expired home state license under the following conditions:

They also present an Active Military ID, and

They are in compliance with their military extension policy of the state which issued the license.  These policies vary by state and customers are encouraged to check with the appropriate department of motor vehicles for more information.

Customers renting in Florida and presenting a Connecticut or Delaware license: As of July 1, 2023, certain, but not all, licenses issued by the foregoing states are considered invalid under Florida law and will not be accepted.  Please check with the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles to determine if your license is valid under Florida law.  As of August 14, 2023, information regarding license validity was able to be located at the following webpage on the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles website - https://www.flhsmv.gov/driver-licenses-id-cards/visiting-florida-faqs/

Customers travelling to the U.S. and Canada from other countries

It is important that customers check with the appropriate Department of Motor Vehicles in the States or Provinces in which they intend to travel to ensure compliance with their various licensing laws. Digital licenses are not accepted. The following practices are used to ensure the customer is presenting a facially valid license at the time of rental. 

Customers traveling to the United States and Canada from another country must present the following:

Their home country driver’s license that is valid, unexpired and includes a photograph, and

If the home country license is in a language other than English (or French, for rentals in Canada) and the letters are English (i.e. German, Spanish, etc.) an International Driver’s Permit is recommended, but not required, for translation purposes in addition to the home country license.  

If the home country license is in a language other than English and the letters are not English (i.e.alphabet is not an extended Latin-based alphabet like German or Spanish but is Russian, Japanese, Arabic, etc.) an International Driver’s Permit is required. 

If an International Driver’s permit cannot be obtained in the home country, another professional, type-written translation may be substituted.  In either case the home country license must also be presented.

Customers may not rent a vehicle solely with the International Driver’s Permit.  The International Driver’s Permit is a translation of the individual’s home country license and is not considered a license nor is it considered valid identification.

If accepted, the PEC contained in the policy insures the personal effects of the renter, additional drivers or any individual who is traveling with the renter against risks of loss or damage.

The purchase of PEC is optional and not required to rent a car. The coverage provided by PEC may duplicate the renter's existing coverage. Enterprise is not qualified to evaluate the adequacy of the renter's existing coverage; therefore, the renter should examine their personal insurance policies or other sources of coverage that may duplicate the coverage provided by PEC.

Take a look at Miami Cruise Port Car Rental: What You Need to Know

miami cruise port car rental

Looking for the best car rental for PortMiami? We have all the information you need for getting the best rates on a rental car near one of  Florida’s busiest cruise ports . We provide you with the most up-to-date information about Miami cruise port car rentals, with tips and tricks to help you save money.

Car rental is the most convenient way to get around during your Miami cruise vacation. There are plenty of car rental companies serving thousands of cruisers who arrive and depart from the port of Miami each week on a Caribbean cruise.

There is no regular public transport for getting around Miami apart from taxis, Uber, Lyft and airport shuttles. Consequently, most people opt for Miami cruise port car rentals if they are staying a few extra days, so they can get around and enjoy the sights. 

We compare all the leading car rental services offered near Miami cruise port to help you find the best deal.

There are many reasons why people need a Miami cruise port car rental. Although Miami Airport (MIA) is a 15-minute taxi ride away, many cruisers find that the best way to reach Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport or Orlando Airport is by picking up a car rental from the port and driving to one of these major airports in Southwest Florida.

Some cruisers may want to spend a few days exploring Miami, South Beach and the surrounding area pre- or post-cruise. They need the convenience and flexibility of a rental car to get from Miami cruise port to their hotel, and to explore the area during their stay. 

' src=

Our guide covers all the available options, including a few you have probably never considered, so let’s get started!

The port of Miami does not have onsite car rental as space on Dodge Island is at a premium. However, there are plenty of car rental companies at nearby locations. Whatever your car preference, you’ll have plenty of choice when considering Miami cruise port car rentals. From luxury car rentals, SUVs and vans to compact and economy vehicles,  there’s something to suit every cruiser.

Most of the main car rental companies in Miami have one or more centers close to the port or at Miami International Airport, just 9 miles away. Some car rental companies also have offices on South Beach, just six miles from the Port of Miami. However, the closest car rental locations to Miami cruise port are in downtown, with a convenient pick-up and drop-off location less than two miles from the port.

As well as the national companies, there are several independent car rental companies near Miami port that offer competitive prices.Photo By: Chuck Kramer (Creative Commons)

It’s always worth shopping around to get the best price for your Miami cruise port car rental. To get a speedy personal quote, click one of our links below and fill in the details, including the required dates, pick-up and drop-off points. You can also phone car rental offices near Miami cruise port and confirm a price before booking.

Here are some money-saving tips when choosing car rentals near Miami port:

Bear in mind that there is usually a surcharge for one-way car rentals. That means if you are picking up a car rental near Miami cruise port and dropping it off at Fort Lauderdale Airport, for example, the rental company will add a one-way charge to the daily rate. You may be charged more for additional drivers. By choosing one designated driver, you could save money. If you book your ahead of time, you can save money by paying up-front and taking a “no cancelation” option. However, if there is any possibility that you may need to cancel your car rental, it’s worth paying a few dollars more to have the money-back cancelation option. Never take your rental car back late as you will incur surcharges. If you have a problem, call the company and extend your agreement Insurance options can affect the price you pay for your car rental. Paying a voluntary deductible for damage and declining personal accident insurance can significantly lower the price of your Miami cruise port car rental. Finally, you will need to decide whether you want to return your rental car with a full tank of fuel, or not. If you opt to bring the car back without filling up the gas tank, you usually pay more per gallon, or have a service charge added. You can gamble with the “pick-up full – return low” fixed price, but make sure you don’t run out of gas on that all-important journey to the cruise ship. The cheapest option is usually to pick-up and return the car with a full gas tank. There are plenty of gas stations close to Miami cruise port, or wherever your drop-off point is, to fill up with gas before returning the car.

Most Miami cruise port rental cars come with a  SunPass  or use Toll-by-Plate , which makes getting around the city very quick and easy. Many major routes in Miami charge a toll.

hese include the Florida Turnpike, Sawgrass expressway (part of SR 869), I-75 East and West, and the Dolphin Expressway (SR-836), which connects the port of Miami with the airport.

Most Miami toll roads charge fees by transponder or Toll-by-Plate. Having a SunPass, E-Pass or E-Z Pass payment facility linked to your car rental agreement means that you can drive through the toll lanes at plazas on dedicated lanes without stopping. Overhead gantries will scan your SunPass receiver or your car rental registration plate (TOLL-BY-PLATE) and charge the toll fee accordingly.

If your SunPass responder is switched off, or your car rental does not have one, you will need to stop frequently and make the payments in cash or by credit/debit card.

On the I-95, a SunPass transponder allows drivers to use Florida Express Lanes which will help you avoid getting held up in traffic at busy times. If you have a cruise or plane to catch, using these optional express lanes is recommended.

The tolls start at 54 cents and up for Sunpass and 80 cents for Toll-by-Plate. The tolls are charged to the account associated with your rental car. They will be deduced from your credit card by your car rental company. It’s a small price to pay to keep you on schedule and avoid any last minute panic.

When you disembark from the cruise ship, there are plenty of taxis lined up waiting to transport you to the airport, hotel or local car rental office. No need to pre-book your taxi; it will all be taken care of as part of your pre-booked  disembarkation process .

Some taxi fares are fixed, such as to Miami International Airport, where you can find a wide choice of car rentals available. However, bear in mind you will pay an airport surcharge if you pick up your car rental from the airport rather than from a downtown office.

If you have already booked your rental from a local office in downtown Miami, you may need a taxi to get there. Always check that the taxi has the meter running to ensure you are not overcharged.

They were quite slow upon opening in the morning - my reservation was for a pick up at 8am (right when they opened), and it took a little over half an hour for me to get the vehicle but the vehicle itself was great.

Frequently Asked Questions

More things to know on your first drive

Do I need to have a driver’s license to rent a car from Hertz Car Rental - Miami - 2nd Street HLE?

A valid driver's license issued from your state or country of residence must be presented at the time of rental.  The driver's license must be valid for the entire rental period. If the driver's license is in a language other than English, and the rental is in the United States, an International Driver's Permit is recommended. In all cases, a valid driver's license issued from your home country must be provided, whether or not you possess an International Driver's Permit.  You will not be allowed to rent a Hertz vehicle with only an International Driver's Permit.

International customers renting in the U.S. are also required to present a valid international-issued driver’s license at the time of rent and a valid passport in the same name, as a second form of identification.

Mobile/Digital Driver License

A mobile or digital driver’s license does not replace a valid physical driver’s license and Hertz customers will still need to supply their hard copy license until further notice.

Rental of a 15-passenger van in California requires a commercial driver’s license to transport a non-profit group or for commercial use. The commercial driver’s license requirement does not apply to personal use. 15- passenger vans may not be used to transport passengers for hire. 

Does Hertz Car Rental - Miami - 2nd Street HLE have any fees and surcharges? Where can I find that information?

Does hertz car rental - miami - 2nd street hle have a car rental ‘grace period’.

Rentals have a grace period of 29 minutes.

Optional coverages do not have hourly charges/grace period, but are charged as a full day.

Extra hour charges will be incurred at the 30 minute mark if the vehicle is returned more than 29 minutes past the original rental time.

Do I need to take out insurance on my rental car from Hertz Car Rental - Miami - 2nd Street HLE?

If renting in California:

Hertz provides no liability protection under the terms of the Rental Agreement to the renter from claims of injury by others against you resulting from an accident. Your personal/business insurance may cover your liability. Exceptions : Hertz will provide primary liability protection up to the statutory minimum limits to international customers (driver's license indicates an address outside the USA) renting in California. Please also refer to Liability Insurance Supplement (LIS) below.

If renting in Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, South Carolina, Virginia, or West Virginia:

Upon signing the Rental Agreement, Hertz provides primary liability protection. However, such protection is generally no more than the minimum limits required by individual state law. See Financial Responsibility Limits by State.

If renting in any other state in the U.S.A.:

Hertz' liability protection is secondary to any other insurance coverage available to you. If you do not have liability insurance and/or the limits of liability of the insurance coverage available to you are not sufficient to cover claims by others against you, and Hertz, as the vehicle owner, provides liability protection due to an accident, you will indemnify Hertz for any and all payments made.

However, Hertz makes available additional liability protection, which is primary, if the optional Liability Insurance Supplement, LIS, is purchased.

Liability Insurance Supplement (LIS)

Liability Insurance Supplement (LIS) provides coverage for you and other authorized operators of your rental vehicle for third party claims.

LIS is primary protection to customer’s personal policy and provides the first $1,000,000.00 of combined bodily injury and/or property damage protection for each occurrence regardless of the state in which the accident occurs. On rentals in California and Florida the maximum combined single limit is $2,000,000.00 for liability protection only.

LIS provides up to $1,000,000.00 of Uninsured/Underinsured protection for bodily injury sustained while driving the rental vehicle.

There are some exclusions to this coverage, which we feel you should know. Under LIS, in the event of an accident, you will not be protected for third party liability:

  • If LIS is not accepted at commencement of the rental or if you fail to pay the charges for LIS.
  • If you or an authorized driver operated the rental vehicle in violation of the Rental Agreement, including, but not limited to, operating the vehicle while legally intoxicated or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or other absorbed elements; permit the use of the vehicle by anyone other than authorized operators; for purposes that could properly be charged as a felony, to tow or push anything, or in a speed contest or for driver training.
  • If the vehicle or LIS coverage was obtained by fraud or misrepresentation.

LIS is third party liability coverage only, except where permitted by law or pertaining to Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage . LIS does not cover personal injury to you or any authorized operator of the rental vehicle or to your or their family members who are related by blood, marriage or adoption and reside in your or their household.

Loss Damage Waiver (LDW)

In most states, in the event of any other loss or damage to the car, regardless of fault, your financial responsibility extends to the full value of the car at the time of rental, less its salvage value, plus expenses for towing, storage impound fees, an administrative fee and a reasonable charge for loss of use. If your responsibility differs in the state in which you rent, it will be stated in Paragraph 4, of the Rental Agreement. In California, in the event of any loss or damage to the car regardless of fault, your financial responsibility will in no event exceed the fair market value, plus actual charges for towing, storage, impound fees, and an administrative fee. In California and Nevada, your responsibility for loss or damage to the car from vandalism unrelated to theft will not exceed $500.00 in California and $2,500.00 in Nevada and you are not responsible for theft, regardless of purchasing LDW, unless the theft results from your fault.. In Illinois, your responsibility for loss or damage for any cause other than theft is limited to $15,500.00. Loss or damage related to theft is limited to $2,000.00, unless the theft results from your fault.  In New York, your financial responsibility shall not exceed (i) the actual and reasonable costs that Hertz incurs to repair the car, including costs for towing, storage and impound fees or that Hertz would have incurred if the car was repaired or (ii) the fair market value of the car immediately before the damages occurred, as determined by the applicable market for the retail saleof the car less disposal proceeds. Your responsibility for theft of the car shall not exceed the reasonable costs incurred by Hertz for loss due to theft up to its fair market value, if it is established that you or any authorized operator failed to exercise reasonable care or aided or abetted in the theft. 

  • However Hertz offers Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) an optional service, which for an additional daily charge relieves you of all financial responsibility for the loss or damage to the rental car, whether or not you have insurance to cover such damage, provided the car is used in accordance with the terms of the Rental Agreement.
  • The cost of LDW may vary depending on location or car type and is charged per each full or partial day of rental.

F.Y.I. – You are under no obligation to purchase LDW or any other optional service as a condition of rental. Your own personal insurance may provide protection for loss or damage to the rental vehicle depending on the state in which you live and the type of policy you have. Also, various credit card companies provide cardholders with some degree of damage protection providing you use their credit card for the rental and decline the optional LDW offered by Hertz at time of rental. The coverage and limits vary. Your policy or credit card coverage should be thoroughly checked for the specific terms and conditions associated with rental vehicles. Remember, most credit card insurance is supplemental, which means it will only reimburse you for loss or damages over and above what is covered by any other insurance you may have and will not cover you for any damage, regardless of cause, if you accept LDW.

Adding LDW after car is on rental: You may not change the option once the rental has begun, without returning the car and starting a new rental agreement.  This will result in the contract being closed out and charges being assessed for the time the vehicle is kept at least 1-day minimum, and a new rental contract will begin.

Cancellation of LDW - New York rentals only:

On New York rentals only, LDW may be cancelled at no charge, within 24 hours of its purchase provided the renter (i) has rented the car for 2 or more days; (ii) appears in person at any Hertz rental location with the car, which shall be subject to inspection.

Personal Accident Insurance (PAI)

Personal Accident Insurance (PAI), offered in combination with PEC, allows you to elect accidental death and accidental medical expense coverage for yourself and your passengers during the rental period of the vehicle.  

PAI coverage:

Total benefits for any one accident are limited to $225,000.00 and are payable in addition to any other coverage for which you or your passengers are eligible. However, your benefits provided by other coverage may be affected by the PAI benefits. Rentals originating in the State of Mississippi do not have a single accident limit of $225,000.00.

If this coverage is accepted, the benefits for you apply to all accidental injuries during your rental period, regardless of whether you are actually in the car. Your passengers are also covered, but only for incidents occurring while they occupy the Hertz rental car.

Benefits are not paid for any loss caused directly or indirectly by:

The renter shall be deemed to have converted the rental vehicle whenever the rental vehicle is not returned to Hertz by the return date or by the extended return date. This is a summary only and other restrictions may apply.

Personal Effects Coverage (PEC)

Personal Effects Coverage (PEC), offered in combination with PAI, is an option that insures against risk of loss or damage to help protect your personal belongings while renting from Hertz. By electing PEC you will be insured throughout the entire rental period. PEC is insurance protection and pays in addition to any other policy you may have (such as a Homeowner’s policy). However, your benefits provided by other coverage may be affected by the PEC benefit. PEC insurance coverage includes those personal effects owned by you and those members of your immediate family traveling with you during the rental period who are permanent residents of your household. PEC does not extend to non-family members traveling with you.

PEC applies to personal effects only and not to car equipment. The following are examples of items NOT covered by the PEC:

  • Automobiles and their equipment, motorcycles, boats, motors or other accessories, add-ons, instruments)
  • household furniture, currency, coins, stamps, deeds, bullion, securities, tickets, documents
  • CB radios, radar detectors, guns, merchandise for sale or fine art
  • Contact lenses, artificial teeth and limbs
  • Perishables

Personal effects not covered loss by mysterious disappearance, nor does it cover::

  • Loss or damage caused by wear and tear, gradual deterioration, moths, vermin, inherent vice or damage sustained due to any process or while actually being worked upon and resulting there from, or while in the care, custody or control of any common carrier.
  • Loss by nuclear reaction, radiation or radioactive contamination.
  • Loss caused by any act of war.
  • Loss or damage due to theft unless reported by Police.

Also, PEC does not cover:

  • Loss caused by war or any act of war;
  • Loss by nuclear reaction, radiation or radioactive contamination;
  • Any loss or damage sustained to property while in the care, custody or control of any common carrier;
  • Loss or damage due to theft unless reported to Police.

If loss or damages occur, completion of claim form must accompany claim. Forms are available at all Hertz corporate locations.

Please note that PAI and PEC are not available separately and must be taken in combination.
