Frequently asked questions

How do I get a Hilo Avis rental car at a great price?

We strive to get you the best rates, whether you book. But booking your car ahead of time can help you save even more. Make sure to not add an additional driver and read the mileage policy to avoid any unexpected fees.

Do I need to bring anything special when I pick up my rental car in Hilo?

You will need to present credit card, as well as your driver's license.

What's Hilo's minimum age to rent a car?

Avis's minimum age to rent a car in Hilo is 21. Some rentals, especially higher category vehicles (luxury, SUVs, etc.), may have an additional fee if you are under 25. Make sure to review Avis's policy to determine what the total cost is for you.

Is there a particular vehicle I should get for my trip to Hilo?

That depends on your needs and what activities you want to do in Hilo. Compact or economy vehicles are good for short drives and are easier to park. If you are traveling with a bigger group, then a SUV or a sedan will have more room and offer a more comfortable ride on longer drives. Those looking for a bit of extravagance on their Hilo getaway can choose a higher-end category like a Mercedes C-Class or Cadillac XTS or similar.

Is insurance required when you rent a car in the United States?

You are required to have insurance before you rent from Avis in the United States. Although many of the major card issuers, like Visa or American Express, give some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For example, you may not be covered if you book a larger or luxury vehicle. Make sure to check credit card issuer's policy before you decide. Otherwise, as a United States citizen, you can purchase Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.

Does Avis require a deposit at the time of booking my rental car?

Avis does require a deposit when you reserve your rental car. Avis will block the deposit on your credit once you book your vehicle for your trip to Hilo. Please note that the deposit may vary greatly based on the model and make of the rental.

What is the fuel policy on my Avis car rental?

We recommend a full to full policy. You receive the vehicle topped off. If you return the rental with less than the amount that you received it with, most companies will charge a premium, and sometimes up to triple the amount of current gas prices to refill it. To avoid any added expenses, it is best to fill up your tank before you bring it back to Avis.

Do I need unlimited miles when I drive in Hilo?

Hilo's small-town atmosphere certainly is charming, but you may want to take to the road again after you've checked off all the activities in Hilo.

Can I get a one-way rental from Avis?

Avis usually offers one-way rentals. You may find it more convenient to return your rental car at another Avis. Don't forget there is typically an additional fee when you pick one-way.
