About hiring a car with Enterprise in Huntsville

Enterprise operates a counter inside the main terminal at Huntsville International Airport (HSV), positioned directly across from baggage claim, so there is no shuttle wait after collecting your luggage — the pickup process moves quickly compared to larger hub airports. Booking several weeks ahead is advisable between spring and summer when demand rises, and confirming operating hours before arrival is worthwhile since after-hours returns are handled via a drop box at the counter. Huntsville has no toll roads in the immediate area, which removes one of the more common hire costs travellers encounter elsewhere in the South — no electronic toll pass or daily toll package is needed for city driving. Fuel runs around US$3.86 per gallon for regular unleaded locally, so budget accordingly before returning the vehicle. Enterprise requires a credit card in the primary driver's name for the authorisation hold; renters without a ticketed return itinerary should expect a hold of around US$400 on that card. Drivers between 21 and 24 face a surcharge of US$25 per day, and vehicle class restrictions may apply to that age group, so confirming eligibility at booking avoids surprises at the counter. If your licence uses a non-Latin script — such as Arabic, Japanese, or Cyrillic — carry an International Driving Permit alongside your home licence.

Will I face unexpected charges at the Enterprise counter in Huntsville when I book through Hola Car Rentals?

No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your booking in Huntsville 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.

Where is the Enterprise counter at Huntsville International Airport?

The Enterprise counter at Huntsville International Airport (HSV) is located inside the terminal, directly across from baggage claim. No shuttle or tram is needed, after collecting your luggage, walk across the arrivals hall and you will find the Enterprise desk.

The airport Enterprise location is at 1000 Glenn Hearn Blvd SW and operates daily from 07:00 AM to 11:59 PM, making it convenient for most flight arrivals into Huntsville. Plan for roughly 20 to 45 minutes from landing to driving away, depending on how long baggage claim takes and how busy the counter is.

If your flight arrives outside those hours, note that after-hours service is not specified for this location, so scheduling your arrival within the operating window is strongly recommended.

What are the hours for Enterprise locations in Huntsville?

Enterprise operates several locations in Huntsville, and hours vary depending on which branch you choose.

  • Huntsville International Airport (HSV), 1000 Glenn Hearn Blvd SW: daily 07:00 AM to 11:59 PM
  • Bob Wallace Ave SW (2401 Bob Wallace Ave): Monday to Friday 08:00 to 17:00, Saturday 09:00 to 12:00, Sunday closed
  • Jordan Ln NW (1006 Jordan Ln NW): Monday to Friday 08:00 to 17:00, Saturday 09:00 to 12:00, Sunday 12:00 to 15:00
  • Memorial Pkwy SW (11803 Memorial Pkwy SW): Monday to Friday 08:00 to 17:00, Saturday 09:00 to 12:00, Sunday closed
  • University Dr. (6650 Hwy 72 W): Monday to Friday 08:00 AM to 06:00 PM, Saturday 09:00 AM to 12:00 PM, Sunday closed

If you are arriving by plane, the airport Enterprise branch offers the longest daily hours and is the most practical option. Off-airport Huntsville branches have limited Saturday hours and most are closed on Sundays, so plan your pickup and return accordingly. After-hours key drop is not available at the University Dr. location.

What documents do I need to pick up my Enterprise hire car in Huntsville?

To collect your Enterprise hire in Huntsville, you must bring the following physical documents, digital copies are not accepted at the counter.

  • Valid driver's licence (original, unexpired, in the main driver's name)
  • International Driving Permit (IDP) if your licence uses a non-Latin alphabet such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic, the IDP is a translation only and must be carried alongside your original licence
  • A major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, in the main driver's name, for the authorisation hold (debit and prepaid cards are not accepted)
  • Passport or valid government-issued photo ID
  • Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
  • Round-trip flight tickets or proof of onward travel

At the Enterprise counter in Huntsville, make sure all names match across your licence, passport, and credit card. If your licence is in English or issued by an EU/EEA country, an IDP is not required but is still recommended for added clarity. Bring a backup credit card in case your primary card is declined for the authorisation hold.

Does Enterprise in Huntsville charge a toll transponder fee, and how do tolls work in Alabama?

Yes, Enterprise vehicles in Huntsville come equipped with an electronic toll device, and you will have the option at the counter to enrol in a toll programme or pay per use.

Alabama's toll roads are managed through the Alabama Freedom Pass system. The state does not use National networks like E-ZPass or SunPass. Major toll roads near and around Alabama include:

  • Montgomery Expressway Bridge: US$1.50 per passage
  • Tuscaloosa Bypass: US$1.50 per passage
  • Emerald Mountain Expressway: US$1.75 per passage
  • Foley Beach Express Toll Bridge: US$2.75 per passage

Alabama toll booths accept cash, credit or debit cards, and the Alabama Freedom Pass transponder, so cashless-only constraints are less of a concern here than in states like Florida or Texas.

At the Enterprise counter in Huntsville, you can choose an unlimited toll package (typically US$11 to US$25 per day depending on the programme) or opt out and pay each toll individually. If you opt out, Enterprise will bill actual toll charges plus administrative processing fees to your card after the hire ends. Toll charges can appear on your statement days or even weeks after you return the vehicle.

To avoid duplicate charges, inform the Enterprise agent in Huntsville if you plan to use your own transponder and ask them to deactivate the vehicle's built-in device.

Can I add an additional driver to my Enterprise hire in Huntsville?

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Enterprise hire in Huntsville, but the driver must be present at the counter at the time of pickup with a valid driver's licence.

For Enterprise in Huntsville, the additional driver fee is US$15 per day plus applicable taxes when not included in your rate. Some Hola Car Rentals rate plans include one additional driver at no extra charge, check your booking confirmation before arriving at the counter.

At the Enterprise location on Jordan Ln NW in Huntsville, a spouse or domestic partner may qualify as an authorised driver at no charge under certain conditions. For all other additional drivers, the daily fee applies.

  • The additional driver must meet the same minimum age and licence requirements as the main driver
  • Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the hire agreement
  • Anyone who drives the vehicle but is not listed on the agreement will not be covered by the hire protections

If you need to add a driver after pickup, visit any open Enterprise branch in Huntsville to update the agreement in person.

Is there a young driver surcharge at Enterprise in Huntsville for drivers under 25?

Yes, Enterprise in Huntsville applies a young-driver surcharge for renters between the ages of 21 and 24. The standard Enterprise underage fee in the United Kingdom is GBP 15 per day plus taxes.

Alabama does not have a state law requiring hires to drivers under 25 (unlike New York or Michigan), so the minimum hire age and surcharge are set by Enterprise's own policy. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can hire at Huntsville locations but should budget for this daily fee on top of the base rate.

  • Drivers under 21 are generally not eligible to hire from Enterprise in Huntsville
  • Vehicle class restrictions apply, categories such as full-size SUVs, luxury, premium, and vans are typically reserved for renters aged 25 and older
  • Economy, compact, and intermediate vehicles are usually available to drivers aged 21 to 24

If you are between 21 and 24 and from Latin America or the Caribbean, certain Hola Car Rentals rates with Avis or Budget (not Enterprise) may waive the underage fee, check your confirmation for details. For Enterprise hires in Huntsville, the surcharge applies regardless of nationality.

How does the security deposit work at Enterprise in Huntsville?

When you pick up your Enterprise hire in Huntsville, the counter agent will place a temporary authorisation hold on your credit card. This is not a charge, it is a hold that reduces your available credit until the hire is closed and your bank releases it.

Typical security deposit holds for standard vehicles at Enterprise locations in the United Kingdom, including Huntsville, are approximately US$300 to US$400. The exact amount can vary based on vehicle class, hire duration, and the specific Enterprise branch.

  • Only a major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card is accepted for the deposit, debit cards and prepaid cards are not accepted
  • The card must be in the main driver's name
  • Make sure your card has sufficient available credit to cover both the hold and any expected charges
  • After you return the vehicle, Enterprise releases the hold, but your bank may take up to 15 business days to reflect the release on your statement

Before travelling to Huntsville, notify your bank of your travel plans to prevent the in-person authorisation from being flagged as suspicious. Bringing a backup credit card is also a good precaution in case your primary card is declined at the Enterprise counter.

Can I get tolls cashback on my Enterprise hire in Huntsville?

Yes, all bookings made through Hola Car Rentals, including Enterprise hires in Huntsville, include Tolls Cashback, which reimburses up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your hire.

Alabama toll roads such as the Montgomery Expressway Bridge, the Tuscaloosa Bypass, and the Foley Beach Express are all eligible toll expenses. Even if your Huntsville driving stays within the city and you only encounter tolls on a day trip to another part of Alabama, you can still claim the cashback.

To claim your refund after returning your Enterprise vehicle in Huntsville:

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

The refund is issued to the same payment method used for your booking and typically processes within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Claims submitted after 30 days are not accepted, so keep your toll receipts and submit promptly after your Huntsville hire ends.

Can I pick up at the Enterprise airport location in Huntsville and return to a different city?

Yes, one-way hires are possible with Enterprise in Huntsville, but a drop-off fee will apply when you return the vehicle to a different location than where you picked it up.

The drop-off fee is route-specific and varies based on the distance between Huntsville and the return city, the vehicle class, the hire dates, and Enterprise's current availability. Common patterns include:

  • Returning to another Enterprise location within the same city or metro area: often no drop-off fee
  • Returning to a different city or state from Huntsville: a drop-off fee typically applies and will be listed under the "To pay at destination" section during checkout
  • Cross-border returns (for example, returning outside the United Kingdom): generally restricted or subject to higher fees

When booking your Enterprise hire in Huntsville, the Hola Car Rentals checkout page will display any applicable drop-off fee on the rate details page before you confirm. This fee cannot be prepaid and is paid directly to Enterprise at the counter or upon return. If the fee shown at the Enterprise counter differs from what your confirmation states, keep all paperwork and contact support, the No Extra Charges© guarantee may apply.

What fuel policy applies to Enterprise hires in Huntsville?

Enterprise hires in Huntsville follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy by default. 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 Enterprise agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on the hire agreement
  • Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge before leaving the Huntsville location
  • 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 Enterprise vehicle in Huntsville with less than a full tank, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at the partner's refuelling rate, which is typically higher than the pump price, plus a refuelling service fee.

Some Enterprise counters in Huntsville may offer an optional prepaid fuel plan at pickup. If you accept it, the Full-to-Full rule is replaced and any unused fuel is generally non-refundable, so it is usually better value to refuel yourself before returning the car.

What insurance coverage do I need for my Enterprise hire in Huntsville?

When hiring from Enterprise in Huntsville, two main types of cover are worth understanding before you arrive at the counter.

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) reduces your financial liability for damage to the Enterprise vehicle itself. A deductible may still apply unless your confirmation explicitly states zero deductible. CDW/LDW does not cover damage you cause to other vehicles or people.

Third-Party Liability (LIS/ALI/SLI) covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to others while driving the Enterprise hire in Huntsville. Alabama does not universally mandate that hire companies include state-minimum liability in every hire, so confirming this cover is included or adding it is strongly recommended.

  • CDW/LDW covers the hire vehicle only
  • LIS/ALI/SLI covers third parties, other drivers, pedestrians, and property
  • Neither covers your personal belongings (PEC) or your own injuries (PAI)
  • Cover applies only to drivers listed on the Enterprise hire agreement

Check your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation to see which protections are already included in your rate before deciding whether to add anything at the Enterprise counter in Huntsville.

Does my Enterprise booking in Huntsville include travel assistance if something goes wrong?

Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings, including Enterprise hires in Huntsville, include travel assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection. However, this benefit does not apply to residents of the United Kingdom or Canada.

For eligible travellers, the cover includes:

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

If you experience a breakdown or accident while driving your Enterprise hire on a Huntsville highway or on a road trip through Alabama, you can reach the assistance line 24 hours a day.

  • Phone (toll-free or collect): +1 888 980 9992
  • WhatsApp: +1 208 910 1001
  • Email: [email protected]

When you call, have your full name, your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number (for example, HOLA1000000), your current location in or around Huntsville, and a brief description of the situation ready. Always check your specific booking confirmation for the exact cover limits and conditions that apply to your Enterprise hire.

How do I return my Enterprise hire car in Huntsville after hours?

Returning your Enterprise vehicle in Huntsville outside of branch hours depends on which location you are using, and not all branches offer after-hours drop-off.

  • The Enterprise airport location at 1000 Glenn Hearn Blvd SW (HSV) operates until 11:59 PM daily, which covers most late-night arrivals and departures in Huntsville
  • The University Dr. location (6650 Hwy 72 W) explicitly does not offer after-hours returns, no key drop option is available there
  • For other Huntsville Enterprise branches such as Bob Wallace Ave and Jordan Ln NW, after-hours key drop availability is not confirmed, so contact the branch directly before your return date

If you must return outside operating hours at a location that does not support after-hours drop-off, consider returning to the Enterprise airport branch at HSV instead, as it has the latest closing time in Huntsville.

When returning after hours at any location that does allow it, take photos of the vehicle's condition and fuel gauge, leave the receipt in the provided envelope, and keep copies of everything. Note that liability for the vehicle may remain with you until Enterprise formally checks it in the next business day.
