alternatively between 09.00 and 19.00 call the free phone number 800 212

that mobile phones on roaming services may not call free phone services
and that you may need to dial a national code to call Portuguese numbers
(00351).

Cars may be delivered to
your hotel at no extra charge. Delivery times will be as close as
possible to requested subject to availability of staff. You will be
given a free phone number to finalise your delivery details with our
head office.
RETURNING YOUR CAR
At Faro airport you should return your car to the car park and
then check it in with the rep. Please allow adequate time. You are
responsible for the car till it is checked in.
Hotel deliveries, the collection details will be arranged with the rep
when the car is delivered to you.
CAR TYPES
We invariably have the car that you request but due to damage
and late returns we may occasionally have to offer you an alternative,
similar or better car than the one you have requested. These
circumstances are outside of our control and we would ask for your
patience. We have never left a client stuck without a car.
The cars shown are the ones available at our internet prices. We may be
able to arrange other cars from companies within the group. They are
likely to be more expensive but we are happy to give you a price for
your special requirements.
CAR AGE
Our undertaking is to provide a clean and safe car. Cars are
retired from our fleet on the basis of condition and age. Our fleet has
400 vehicles with an average age of 9 months.
DRIVERS' AGE
Sorry but we cannot hire to drivers under 21. A tax will be
charged to drivers with ages between 21 and 25 years old: 25 €.
BABY SEATS
We have conventional forward facing baby seats intended for
children to approximately 3 years old and booster seats for children to
approximately 5 years. If you have a particular requirement for your
child we recommend that for peace of mind you bring your own child seat.
Baby Seats / Booster Seats: 15 € / rental.
ACCIDENTS & CLAIMS
If you have an accident, theft or any other situation which will
result in an insurance claim it is your responsibility to get an police
report number. You need to call the police who will issue you a report
number which must be delivered to Auto Rent. Without this the insurance
will not pay. This is a simple procedure but if you have any problems
you are welcome to call the company who will happily assist. If there is
loss to the car and you do not obtain a police report you will remain
liable for the damage. The car documents include full contact numbers
for the company.
