If you have any questions, feel free to call. Carlos Jeep Rental offers courtesy pick-ups from the ferry terminal only, depending on shuttle availability. Drop-offs are only offered towards the ferry terminal; our courtesy shuttle leaves every hour. For example: if you drop off the vehicle at 10:30 AM we will provide transportation at 11:00 AM. The first shuttle departs at 8:00 AM the last shuttle departs at 3:00 PM. We recommend being at least 20 minutes before the shuttle you are planning on taking. Due to limited space on the courtesy shuttle, we only provide transportation to the driver. Upon arrival, your party will wait for you at the ferry terminal, at departure you should drop your party off at the ferry terminal before returning your vehicle.

OUR RATES & HOW WE CHARGE
Carlos Jeep Rental rates may vary from season to season. Our rates are determined by supply, demand, and market conditions. Rates quoted are only guaranteed at the time they are quoted. Our suggestion is to always make your plans early to take advantage of the best possible rate we can offer.

Carlos Jeep Rental daily charges are on a 24-hour clock. For example: if you rent the vehicle at 11:00 a.m. on a Tuesday and returned at 11:00 a.m. the next day (which will be Wednesday), this would be considered a one-day charge.
After such time a full day’s charge will be applied to the renters’ contract. All items charged by Carlos Jeep Rental on a 24-hour basis include but are not limited to daily rates, collision coverage, supplemental liability coverage, underage fee, additional driver fee, etc.

DEPOSIT REQUIREMENTS
Renters must have a valid credit card with their name imprinted so we can authorize a security hold. Authorizations will start at $100 and may vary depending on the vehicle rented. Upon return, one of our agents will inspect the vehicle. If the vehicle is OK, the hold on the credit card will be released. A requirement for phone and online reservations includes two full-day rentals. During same-day rentals, we will work on a first come first serve basis.

CREDIT CARD & DEBIT CARD USE
The renter must present a credit or debit card in their name with the appropriate available funds on the card. If a credit card is presented in someone else’s name Carlos Jeep Rental will not be able to rent the vehicle to you. This also applies to spouses. This policy is in place to protect credit and debit, cardholders.

PAYMENT METHODS
Carlos Jeep Rental accepts the following methods of payments: Debit Card, VISA, Discover, AMEX, and Mastercard. We do not accept cash transactions at any point in your rental.

EXTENSION OF RENTAL
When your contract is opened, we will ask you for the expected return date and time. Once you leave our facility, we ask that you contact us if the return date or time needs to be extended. Only the primary renter is allowed to extend an open contract. If the vehicle is returned before the expected return date, there will be a penalty fee of $50 and the rest will be refunded.

INSURANCE POLICIES & COVERAGE
We at Carlos Jeep Rental encourage you to contact your insurance carrier and inquire if your personal policy will cover you in a rental vehicle. Make sure you inform your agent of the type of vehicle you will be renting and how long you will be renting. It makes a difference.

Know what you need before you arrive. Carlos Jeep Rental requires renters to purchase liability coverage. Collision protection is optional on all vehicles except golf carts.

CREDIT CARD COLLISION COVERAGE
Many credit card companies offer collision coverage benefits with their card. As in many types of coverage, there are limitations. The length of the rental, purpose of the rental, and the vehicle being rented determine your coverage. Again, we suggest that you never assume and encourage you to call the 800 number on your credit card to verify your coverage.

COLLISION DAMAGE WAIVER
Only applies to Compact cars, SUVs, Golf Carts, Jeeps, Light Trucks, and Minivans.

Only covers damage to the vehicle. The CDW offered by Carlos Jeep Rental is not insurance. It is an option that relieves the renter of the financial responsibility if the vehicle is damaged while on contract.

If accepted by the renter and barring any violation of the rental agreement terms and conditions, Carlos Jeep Rental agrees to waive its rights to collect for damages or losses sustained to the vehicle, loss of use of the vehicle, and administrative charges. The CDW is voided if the vehicle is not returned by the due back date and if the contract is not paid in full at the time of return.
