How to find Hertz at Greater Wilmington Airport
Collecting your Hertz car rental starts with knowing where to go. You could be going to an airport pickup point, meeting staff after landing, or taking a shuttle bus to the rental location. Start your car rental search and use the 'Pickup' filter to check the options available at Greater Wilmington Airport.
Airport terminal: Counters are inside or near the arrival terminal, so you can skip an extra transfer. Land, grab your suitcases and hit the road.
Free shuttle bus: The rental office is near the airport instead of at the terminal. A free shuttle will take you there.
Meet and greet: A representative will meet you in arrivals with the keys and rental paperwork. Once everything is ready, they'll guide you to your car.
Prefer a more hands-off way to collect your car? Some providers offer self-service pickup, letting you collect keys from a kiosk or lockbox.
Hertz car rental at Greater Wilmington Airport: What you need to know
Transmission: Choose between 'Automatic' (takes care of the gear changes for you) and 'Manual' (stick shift). Most providers include both, so use the 'Transmission' filter to find your preferred option.
Fuel policy: Avoid extra costs by choosing a vehicle with a 'Fair fuel policy.' You pick up the car full and return it full, so you pay only for the fuel you've used.
Mileage limits: Unlimited mileage lets you focus on the journey instead of tracking the odometer. Find this feature under the 'Policies' filter and rack up the miles, not the fees.
Age requirements: To rent a vehicle in the United States, you usually have to be at least 21 years old. Some providers may rent vehicles to younger drivers for an extra fee, so always check the terms before finalizing your ride.
Side of the road: Traffic in the United States sticks to the right side of the road.
Speed limits: Local speed limits may vary, but it's normally around 40kph in built-up areas and 110kph or so on highways. Always go with what's posted on the road signs.
Required documents: When collecting your Hertz car rental, you'll typically need your physical driver's licence and another form of photo ID. If anything extra is required, you'll find it in your booking.
Deposits and credit card: Providers usually place a pre-authorised hold on a credit card as a security deposit. Debit cards are not always accepted at pickup, so it's a good idea to carry your credit card.
Insurance: Car rental excess insurance isn't required, but it can save you from paying an expensive excess fee. Check what's covered before you book.
Add ons: A navigation system, additional drivers and child seats can all be added while booking your Hertz car rental. Sort them out ahead of time to make pickup easier.
