No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your booking in New Windsor, NY are clearly shown at the time of reservation and in your confirmation email, so you know exactly what you are paying before you arrive at the counter.

On top of that, every Hola Car Rentals booking includes the No Extra Charges© guarantee. This is a pricing guarantee (not insurance) that protects you if the counter in New Windsor, NY charges you for something that was not listed on your confirmation and was not an optional add-on you accepted. If that happens, Hola Car Rentals will work with the hire partner to remove or reimburse the charge after verification.

The only costs outside this guarantee are:

• Optional add-ons you choose at the counter (GPS, child seats, prepaid fuel)
• Usage-based charges (tolls, fuel shortfall, traffic fines)

To pick up a hire car in New Windsor, NY, you must bring all of the following physical documents to the counter:

• A valid, original driver’s licence in the main driver’s name
• A major credit card with the driver’s name printed on the card, for the authorisation hold
• A passport or valid government-issued photo ID
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets if you are visiting from abroad

If your driver’s licence is not in English and does not use a Latin (Roman) alphabet, such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory. For all other non-English licences, an IDP is strongly recommended. The IDP is a translation only and must be carried alongside your original licence.

All documents must be physical. Digital copies shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted at the hire counter in New Windsor, NY.

Yes, a major credit card is required to hire a car in New Windsor, NY.

At pickup, the hire partner will place a temporary authorisation hold on your credit card to cover potential incidentals. For standard vehicles in the United States, this hold is typically around US$300 to US$400, though the exact amount varies by hire company, vehicle class, and location.

• The card must be a major credit card, not a debit or prepaid card
• The card must be in the main driver’s name, with the name printed on the physical card
• You must present the physical card at the counter; virtual or digital-only cards are not accepted

Even if you prepaid your booking online, you are still required to present a physical credit card at the New Windsor, NY counter for the security hold. The hold is released after you return the vehicle, though your bank may take up to 15 business days to reflect the release. Bringing a backup credit card is always a good idea in case your primary card is declined.

It depends on your licence. In New Windsor, NY, visitors can generally drive with a valid foreign licence, but an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory if your licence uses a non-Latin alphabet, such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script.

If your licence is in English or uses a Latin alphabet, an IDP is not strictly required but is strongly recommended, as some hire partners at the counter may request one.

• The IDP is a translation booklet only, not a standalone licence
• You must carry your original licence together with the IDP at all times
• Obtain your IDP in your home country before travelling to New Windsor, NY, as it cannot be issued to non-US licence holders in the United States

New York state law allows licensed drivers aged 18 and older to hire a car, though a young-driver surcharge applies for renters under 25. Always confirm the specific requirements shown on your booking confirmation, as the hire desk rules govern at pickup.

Toll roads near New Windsor, NY operate on a fully cashless system. There are no cash lanes on major routes in New York, including the NY State Thruway and bridges and tunnels in the region. All tolls are collected electronically, either via a transponder or through licence plate recognition.

Your hire vehicle will include an electronic toll device. At the counter in New Windsor, NY, you typically have two options:

• Unlimited toll package: a fixed daily rate of approximately US$11 to US$25 per day, covering all toll usage during your hire
• Pay per use: the hire company charges you the actual toll amounts plus daily or administrative processing fees after the hire ends

If you drive into Manhattan south of 60th Street, NYC Congestion Pricing also applies. This is a separate daily charge of approximately US$8.99 plus taxes per calendar day for passenger vehicles, billed in addition to any bridge or tunnel tolls.

You may also bring your own personal E-ZPass transponder. If you plan to use it, inform the counter agent in New Windsor, NY so they can deactivate the vehicle’s default toll device and help you avoid duplicate charges.

Note that toll charges often post to your account days or even weeks after you return the vehicle, as toll agencies process invoices in batches.

Yes, all Hola Car Rentals bookings include Tolls Cashback, which lets you recover up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your hire in New Windsor, NY and surrounding areas.

Given that New York roads are fully cashless and toll costs can add up quickly, especially if you cross bridges, tunnels, or drive into Manhattan, this benefit can provide meaningful savings.

To claim your cashback after hiring in New Windsor, NY:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of returning the vehicle
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback, followed by your reservation number
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation, the signed hire agreement, and a toll receipt or statement showing charges paid during your hire

The refund is issued to the same payment method used for your original booking and typically processes within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Claims submitted after 30 days are not accepted. This benefit does not mean tolls are included in your booking rate; you still pay tolls normally and claim reimbursement afterwards.

The minimum age to hire a car in New Windsor, NY is 18, because New York state law requires hire companies to rent to any licensed driver aged 18 and older.

However, drivers under 25 will be charged a daily young-driver surcharge, and most vehicle classes are restricted to renters aged 25 and older. The vehicle categories typically available to renters aged 18 to 24 in New Windsor, NY are limited to smaller classes such as economy, compact, and intermediate.

• Renters aged 18 to 20: eligible in New York, young-driver surcharge applies
• Renters aged 21 to 24: eligible, young-driver surcharge applies, vehicle class restrictions apply
• Renters aged 25 and older: no surcharge, full vehicle class access

If you are aged 21 to 24 and from Latin America or the Caribbean, certain Hola Car Rentals rates with Avis or Budget may waive the young-driver surcharge for the main driver. Check your booking confirmation to see if this waiver is included. A valid driver’s licence and a major credit card in the main driver’s name are required regardless of age.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your hire car in New Windsor, NY, either at no cost if your rate includes it, or for a daily fee paid at the counter.

When an additional driver fee applies, typical costs in New Windsor, NY are:

• Avis, Budget, and Payless: US$13 per hire day plus taxes, capped at US$65 plus taxes
• Hertz, Thrifty, and Dollar: US$13.50 per hire day plus taxes, capped at US$189 plus taxes
• Alamo, National, and Enterprise: US$15 per day plus taxes

The additional driver must be present at the counter in New Windsor, NY at the time of pickup. They must bring a valid driver’s licence and any required IDP, sign the hire agreement, and meet the minimum age requirements for the location. Only drivers listed on the hire agreement are covered by the vehicle’s protections such as CDW and liability cover.

Check your booking confirmation before arriving at the counter. If your rate includes one additional driver free of charge, it will be stated explicitly. For Avis and Budget, additional drivers must generally be at least 25 years old.

When hiring a car in New Windsor, NY, there are two main types of cover to consider: protection for the hire vehicle itself, and liability cover for damage or injury you may cause to others.

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) reduces your financial liability if the hire car is damaged or stolen. A deductible may still apply unless your confirmation shows zero deductible. CDW and LDW do not cover third parties.

Third-Party Liability (LIS, ALI, or SLI) covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to other people or vehicles. Not all US states require hire companies to include minimum liability cover, so it is strongly recommended that you add this to your booking for New Windsor, NY.

• CDW or LDW: covers damage to the hire vehicle
• LIS or SLI: covers damage or injury to third parties
• These are separate protections and both are recommended

Cover applies only to drivers named on the hire agreement. Always verify what is included in your rate on your booking confirmation before arriving at the counter in New Windsor, NY, and review the hire agreement carefully at pickup.

Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings include travel assistance cover provided by Terrawind Global Protection, which can be valuable if something unexpected happens during your trip to New Windsor, NY.

This benefit is designed for non-North American customers. Residents of the United States and Canada do not qualify for this cover.

For eligible renters, the travel assistance package typically includes:

• Travel and medical insurance for up to 5 passengers
• Legal assistance in the event of a road accident
• Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
• Flight cancellation insurance

Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call.

This cover does not replace CDW or LDW for vehicle damage, nor does it cover third-party liability. Check your booking confirmation for the exact terms and coverage limits that apply to your reservation.

The standard fuel policy for hire cars in New Windsor, NY is Full to Full. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.

• At pickup, check the fuel gauge with the agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on the hire agreement
• Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge
• Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location so the gauge does not drop before you arrive
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address

If you return the vehicle in New Windsor, NY with less fuel than recorded at pickup, you may be charged for the shortfall at the hire partner’s refuelling rate, which is typically higher than the pump price, plus a refuelling service fee.

Some counter locations may offer a prepaid fuel option, where you pay for a full tank upfront and return the car at any level. Any unused fuel is generally non-refundable under that option, so Full to Full is usually the better value if you plan to refuel before returning.

Yes, one-way hires are possible from New Windsor, NY, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on your return location, the hire company, vehicle class, and travel dates.

Common patterns for one-way hires originating in New Windsor, NY:

• Returning to a nearby location in the same area: often no drop-off fee
• Returning to a different city or region within New York or a neighbouring state: a drop-off fee typically applies
• Long-distance or cross-country returns: fees are usually higher and some routes may not be permitted

The drop-off fee is not included in any rate plan and cannot be prepaid. It will appear under the section labelled as amounts due at the destination on your booking confirmation. Always review this section carefully before confirming your reservation.

If you change your return location after booking in New Windsor, NY, the hire may be re-priced and a new or higher drop-off fee could apply. Mid-hire route changes must be approved by the hire partner. If the counter charges a drop-off fee that was not disclosed on your confirmation, keep all paperwork and contact support after the hire ends.

It is important to plan your arrival within the counter's operating hours. Key policies to keep in mind:

• Hire companies will generally hold your booking for up to 24 hours after the scheduled pickup time
• If a flight delay pushes your arrival beyond 24 hours from the original pickup time, contact support as soon as possible
• The standard grace period on return is approximately 30 minutes; returning after this window may result in charges for extra hours or days

If you need to return the vehicle outside of staffed hours at your New Windsor, NY location, follow the after-hours key drop instructions provided in your hire agreement.
