How to get a rental car after an accident:
Determine Who Is Paying
If you are filing an insurance claim, ask the adjuster about a rental. Directly billing the insurance company is available for eligible claims, or you can take advantage of our low rates if you will be paying for rental car costs.
Schedule Rental & Repairs
Reserve your rental for the same date you plan to drop your car at the shop. If your car is not safe to drive, you may need a vehicle now. Let us know if you need a ride from home or work.
Extend Your Rental
Repairs can take longer than expected. Contact us to extend your rental. If an insurance company is paying, we work with the repair shop and the adjuster on extensions throughout the repair.
Repairs Complete
When your vehicle is complete, return the rental to Enterprise and we can give you a ride to the repair facility. Any billing will need to be finalized with the insurance company before we close your rental contract.

Rental Coverage Pays Off
Rental coverage pays for the cost of a rental while your vehicle is repaired after an accident. This coverage, available through your insurance company, costs about the same as renting a car for just one day but is not always included in your auto policy. Contact your agent or carrier to add the coverage to your policy.
