What is your fuel policy?
Bring the car back full to avoid any refueling service charge.

What insurance packages do you have?
Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI) provides protection against bodily injury and property damage to others for which you are legally liable. SLI is excess automobile liability insurance that protects you and all authorized drivers of the rental vehicle against third-party bodily injury and property-damage claims.

When SLI is purchased, liability protection provided by econocars and the SLI carrier becomes primary and applies before other liability protection available to you. This means that you probably won't have to call upon your other protection unless the loss exceeds the SLI limit or results from your use of the vehicle in violation of the terms of the rental agreement. By not having to file a claim under your own policy, you can probably avoid possible premium increases or even cancellation.

SLI is included, the liability protectionto the renter or authorized driver is $ 25'000 combined single limit.

Personal Accident and Effects Insurance (PAE) protects you and your passengers against accident, injury and loss to personal property.

PAE provides renters and occupants of the rental vehicle with accidental death benefit and coverage for certain medical expenses resulting from an accident up ti $ 10'000 per occupant.

ESP protects international renters possessing a non-US passport against certain medical expenses resulting from accidents occurring during the rental period. It also covers other members of the renter's traveling party who also have non-US passports. By having PAE in combination with ESP, international renters who might otherwise have no medical coverage available to them while in the US are protected against medical expenses that result from accidents. (up to $ 10'000/occupant)

Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) offered by car rental companies is not insurance. It relieves renters of financial responsibility if the car is damaged or stolen while under rental contract. Using the vehicle in violation of any of the use restrictions listed on the rental agreement could void LDW and leave the renter fully responsible for any damage to the vehicle.

If you violate this restrictions you may be responsible for up to the full fair market value of the car if it is damaged, vandalized or stolen during the rental. You may also be responsible for reimbursing econocarsFL for the revenue lost by not being able to use the car while it is being repaired or not recovered due to theft (loss of use).

If you're renting for personal reasons, check your own automobile insurance policy before you pick up a car. Many policies do cover rental cars, but even if a renter has personal automobile insurance, he or she may not be totally protected. For example, if you decline LDW and rely on your own insurance, you probably would be responsible for paying your usual deductible. Also, loss of use fees is not normally covered by personal auto insurance policies. And, personal auto policies that extend collision coverage to a rental car may only provide a coverage limit equal to the value of the vehicle scheduled on the policy.

If the value of the renter's personal auto is less than that of the rental vehicle, the renter could still have some damage responsibility. Finally, if you don't own a car and don't have automobile insurance, you should consider accepting Loss Damage Waiver.

Some credit card companies offer protection if you present their card at the time of rental and use the same card to pay for your rental at the time of return. Renters should examine closely the terms of this coverage as the protection is often supplemental and certain limitations or restrictions may apply.

The deductible for each insurance case is $ 1'000.
