Based on location availability, you can select options including infant and child booster and safety seats, as well as ski racks, for a nominal fee. No-smoking vehicles are available at many locations at no additional charge. While Budget makes every effort to honour your requests for additional accessories with your car rental, except for infant and child safety seats reserved 24 hours prior to pick-up, we cannot guarantee them at the time of reservation. Hand controls for the physically challenged are also available, but require special set-up. They must be requested at least 24 hours prior to pick-up.

Vehicles are rented on a daily, 24-hour basis. Hourly charges will apply when a consumer returns the vehicle after their expected time of return. If the hourly charge exceeds three hours, a full-day charge will apply. Each rental contract lists the charge fees, so renters should read the contract and keep it handy. Renters will be charged only the quoted rates, but if a customer fails to meet the contract terms, charges will be imposed. When in doubt, always ask at the car rental counter.

Budget's rates don't include the cost of fuel, so car renters have three Fuel Service Options – 1. Accept the Fuel Service Option, pay in advance for a full tank of fuel, and bring the rental car back empty; 2. Don't accept the Fuel Service Option, bring the rental car back full, provide a receipt for your gas purchase, and avoid any refuelling service charge; or 3. Don't choose the Fuel Service Option, bring the car back less than full, and pay a fuel service charge.

If a car is rented at 11:00 a.m. on a Tuesday, for example, a daily rental is due back to the return location by 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday – 24 hours later. Renters are requested to abide by the terms on the rental agreement. If a daily rental is not returned within 24 hours, an hourly fee will be charged in addition to the original daily charge. For rental cars returned more than three hours late, renters will be charged for an extra day. For specifics, speak with your Budget counter representative.
