| Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) |
CDW limits the renter’s financial
responsibility for loss or damage to the rental vehicle. Included is protection
against fire, theft, and vandalism. Where the rental rate includes CDW, the
renter will only be responsible for the following deductible: $250.00 CAD deductible
Where the rental rate does not include CDW, the renter will have the opportunity to purchase one of Alamo’s Waiver Saver products at the time of rental. The Waiver Saver products provide multiple levels of protection to better serve our customers’ needs and avoid out-of-pocket expenses for damage to or loss of the rental vehicle. The purchase of CDW contractually waives or limits the renter’s liability for damage to or loss of the vehicle. CDW is null and void if damage to or loss of vehicle results from driving on unpaved roads. |

| Seatbelts and Child Restraint Seats | Provincial laws may require the use of seatbelts and child restraint seats. Seatbelts and child restraint seats can save lives. We urge you to use them. To avoid serious injury or even death, use child restraint seats only in the back seat of the vehicle. Older children who do not use child restraint seats should ride properly buckled-up in the back seat. ALAMO offers child restraint seats at $5.99 CAD per day. Seats should be requested at time of reservation. | ||||||||||||||||||
| Fuel Options |
ALAMO offers customers two (2) choices: (a) A full tank of gas can be purchased at time of rental. The price is competitive and the service is convenient because the renter does not have to worry about taking time to stop and refuel before returning the car (there is no credit for remaining fuel). This is an excellent option for rentals of five (5) days or more. (b) The vehicle is rented with a full tank and the renter is responsible for refueling at the end of the rental, (otherwise a refueling service charge will be incurred). ALAMO provides a refueling service at time of return for one-stop, one recipient convenience. This is the ideal option for renters traveling only a short distance. |
