Will I face unexpected charges at the National counter in Warwick when I book through Hola Car Rentals?
No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your National booking in Warwick 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 National 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 National counter in Warwick 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 National 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)
Where is the National car rental counter at Warwick's T.F. Green Airport?
The National car rental counter at Warwick is located at 700 Jefferson Blvd, inside T.F. Green Airport (PVD). Follow the car rental signage inside the terminal to reach the rental counters, which are accessible on the upper floors of the Interlink facility. No off-site shuttle is required, as National operates directly within the airport complex.
When arriving at T.F. Green in Warwick, allow extra time after landing. Traveler reports note that airport rental counters can experience lines, and the multi-floor check-in process plus vehicle preparation can add meaningful time before you drive away. Counter hours run approximately 06:00 to 23:59 daily, so late-arriving flights are generally covered.
If you are unsure which counter to approach, look for the National signage in the rental area or ask airport staff to direct you to the consolidated rental section.
What documents do I need to pick up my National rental car in Warwick?
To collect your National rental car in Warwick, you must present the following physical documents at the counter:
- A valid, unexpired driver's license with a photograph (digital licenses are not accepted)
- A major credit card in the main driver's name, with the driver's name printed on the physical card, for the security deposit 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 license 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 at the National counter in Warwick. For licenses in other non-English scripts, an IDP is strongly recommended. The IDP is a translation only and must be carried alongside your original license.
All documents must be originals. No digital copies or virtual cards are accepted for the deposit hold at the Warwick location.
How do toll roads work for a National rental car in Warwick, Rhode Island?
Rhode Island uses the E-ZPass electronic toll system, and the main toll relevant to National rental car drivers based in Warwick is the Newport Bridge (Claiborne Pell Bridge), which connects Newport to Jamestown. Typical costs for a standard passenger car are:
- E-ZPass non-resident rate: US$4.00
- Bill by Mail (no transponder, license plate capture): US$6.00
The RhodeWorks truck toll system operates at 12 locations on I-95, I-295, I-195, and other routes near Warwick, but it applies only to heavy trucks. Passenger cars in a National rental pay nothing at those gantries.
Your National rental vehicle in Warwick will come equipped with an electronic toll device. At the counter you can choose an unlimited toll package (typically US$11 to US$25 per day, depending on the program) or pay per use. If you decline the program and drive through a cashless toll, the rental company will bill the toll amount plus an administrative processing fee to your card after the rental ends. Toll charges can appear on your statement days or even weeks after you return the vehicle.
Rhode Island has no congestion charges or emissions zones, so no additional city-center fees apply when driving around Warwick.
Can I get cashback on tolls paid during my National rental in Warwick?
Yes, you can get cashback on tolls paid during your National rental in Warwick. All Hola Car Rentals bookings include Tolls Cashback, which reimburses up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during the rental period.
This is especially useful if you cross the Newport Bridge or encounter any other toll roads while driving your National rental around Warwick and the surrounding Rhode Island area. The reimbursement covers the lesser of your actual toll costs or the 5% cap.
To claim your cashback after returning the vehicle in Warwick:
- Email [email protected] within 30 days of vehicle return
- Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - Reservation {Your Confirmation Number}
- Attach your Hola Car Rentals confirmation, the signed rental agreement from National, and a toll receipt or statement showing charges paid
- Include your full name, travel dates, and the last 4 digits of the card used for the booking
Refunds are processed to your original payment method within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Submissions received after 30 days are not accepted.
Are there roundabouts I should know about when driving a National rental car in Warwick?
Yes, Warwick has a notable road feature that can surprise drivers unfamiliar with the area. The Apponaug Circulator is a system of five interconnected modern roundabouts spanning approximately 2.3 miles near the historic village center. This design replaces traditional signalized intersections and is intended to handle significantly higher traffic volumes while reducing collision risk.
If you are picking up your National rental car at T.F. Green Airport and driving into central Warwick, you may encounter these roundabouts. Key tips for navigating them:
- Yield to traffic already inside the roundabout before entering
- Follow lane markings carefully, as multi-lane roundabouts require choosing the correct lane before entry
- Speed is naturally reduced by the circular design, so no aggressive braking is needed
Additionally, several local roads near Warwick Station operate as one-way streets. Fresno Road runs one-way westbound and Fullerton Road runs one-way eastbound. Some intersections along Post Road and Jefferson Boulevard restrict left turns due to access management policies, which can be unexpected if you are used to grid-based city layouts.
Using GPS navigation in your National rental is strongly recommended for first-time visitors to Warwick to avoid wrong turns on these unmarked or one-way local roads.
How does the security deposit work for a National rental car in Warwick?
When you pick up your National rental car in Warwick, the counter agent will place a temporary authorization hold on your credit card. This is not a charge but reduces your available credit until the hold is released after you return the vehicle.
For standard vehicles rented in the United States, typical holds range from US$300 to US$400, though the exact amount at the National counter in Warwick depends on the vehicle class, rental duration, and the partner's current policy. Premium or larger vehicles may carry higher holds.
Important requirements for the deposit at the Warwick location:
- The card must be a major credit card (not debit, prepaid, or virtual)
- The card must be in the main driver's name, with the driver's name physically printed on the card
- You must have sufficient available credit to cover the hold plus any expected charges
After you return the National rental in Warwick, the hold is released by the partner. Your bank or card issuer controls how quickly the credit reappears, which can take up to 15 business days. Bringing a backup credit card is always a good precaution in case your primary card is declined at the counter.
Can I add an additional driver to my National rental car in Warwick?
Yes, you can add an additional driver to your National rental car in Warwick, but the additional driver must be physically present at the counter at 700 Jefferson Blvd, T.F. Green Airport, at the time of pickup. They must bring a valid driver's license and any required IDP, and they must sign the rental agreement.
For National rentals in Warwick, the additional driver fee is US$15 per day plus applicable taxes when not included in your rate. Check your booking confirmation before arriving, as some Hola Car Rentals rate plans include one additional driver at no extra cost.
All additional drivers must meet the same age and document requirements as the main driver. Only drivers listed on the National rental agreement in Warwick are covered by the vehicle's protections, including CDW/LDW and liability coverage. Anyone who drives the car without being named on the contract may void those protections entirely.
If you need to add a driver after pickup, you would need to visit a National branch to update the agreement. Phone or chat requests alone are generally not sufficient to add a driver mid-rental.
What is the minimum age to rent a National car in Warwick, Rhode Island?
The minimum age to rent a National car in Warwick without a young-renter surcharge is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent but will be charged a daily young-renter surcharge at the counter, and most vehicle classes are restricted to drivers 25 and older.
Vehicle classes typically restricted to drivers 25 and older include Full Size, Full Size SUV, Standard, Minivan, Van, Convertible, Luxury, Premium, and Premium SUV. Drivers under 25 picking up a National rental in Warwick are generally limited to Economy, Compact, Intermediate, and similar smaller categories.
Rhode Island is not one of the states (New York and Michigan) where law requires rental companies to serve drivers as young as 18, so the standard National policy applies in Warwick. Drivers under 21 are not eligible to rent.
If you are 21 to 24 and booking a National rental in Warwick, Budget for the young-renter surcharge in addition to your prepaid rate. The surcharge is paid at the counter and is not included in your online booking total.
What travel assistance is included with my National rental booking in Warwick?
Most Hola Car Rentals bookings for a National rental in Warwick include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection. This benefit is designed for travelers visiting from outside North America. Residents of the United States and Canada do not qualify for this benefit.
Core benefits typically included are:
- Travel insurance with medical coverage for up to 5 passengers
- Legal assistance in the event of a road accident
- Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
- Flight cancellation insurance
This coverage is particularly relevant if you experience a breakdown or accident on I-95, RI-4, or the Airport Connector near Warwick, where narrow shoulders and high traffic volumes can make roadside situations stressful. Having legal and medical assistance available 24/7 provides an important safety net.
To use the assistance, contact Terrawind directly at any hour: call +1 888 980 9992 (toll-free), WhatsApp +1 208 910 1001, or email [email protected]. Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call. Always check your specific booking confirmation for the exact coverage terms and limits that apply to your reservation.
What fuel policy applies to National car rentals in Warwick?
National car rentals in Warwick operate under a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid fuel charges.
At pickup, verify the fuel gauge with the National agent at the Warwick counter and confirm the starting level is recorded on your rental agreement. Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and gauge before leaving the lot.
When returning your National rental to 700 Jefferson Blvd in Warwick, refuel within approximately 10 miles of the airport so the tank does not drop below full before you arrive. Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address.
If you return the vehicle below the recorded starting level, National may charge:
- A fuel shortfall at the partner's refueling rate, which is typically higher than retail pump prices
- An additional refueling service or administrative fee
For after-hours returns at the Warwick airport location, leave the fuel receipt in the return envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge on your phone as documentation in case any dispute arises later.
Can I pick up a National car in Warwick and return it in a different city?
Yes, one-way rentals are possible with National, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on your return location. When booking a National rental originating in Warwick, the drop-off fee is calculated based on the specific route, vehicle class, dates, and distance to the return location.
General patterns to expect:
- Returning to another National location within the same metro area: often no drop-off fee
- Returning to a different city or state from Warwick: a drop-off fee typically applies and varies by route
- Cross-border returns (for example, returning in Canada): may be restricted or carry significantly higher fees
During the booking process, any applicable drop-off fee for your Warwick National rental will be shown on the rate details page under the section labeled as charges due at destination. It will not appear on the results page. Review your confirmation to verify the fee before pickup.
If you need to change your return location after booking, contact support promptly, as mid-rental route changes must be approved by the partner and may reprice the rental or increase the fee.
What insurance coverage is included in my National rental in Warwick?
The insurance protections included in your National rental in Warwick depend on the rate plan selected at booking. Hola Car Rentals offers All Inclusive and All Inclusive+ rate plans for U.S. rentals, and the coverage differs between them.
Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) reduces your financial liability for damage to the National rental vehicle itself, including collision, theft, and vandalism, subject to any applicable deductible. It 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 National rental in Warwick. Some U.S. states require a minimum level of liability to be included, but not all do. Adding supplemental liability coverage up to US$300,000 is strongly recommended for driving in Rhode Island and surrounding states.
Key points to verify at the National counter in Warwick:
- Confirm CDW/LDW is active on your rental agreement and note the deductible amount
- Verify whether LIS/SLI is included or needs to be added
- Only drivers named on the agreement are covered
CDW/LDW does not cover tires, undercarriage, roof, or personal belongings. Review your booking confirmation for the exact protections included in your rate.
What happens if my National rental car in Warwick is returned after hours?
The National rental counter at Warwick's T.F. Green Airport operates until approximately 23:59 daily, which covers most late-arriving flights. However, if you need to return the vehicle outside staffed hours, a 24-hour drop-off option may be available at the 700 Jefferson Blvd location.
For after-hours returns of your National rental in Warwick:
- Park the vehicle in the designated return area at the airport depot
- Lock the car and use the key drop box if provided at the location
- Leave your fuel receipt inside the return envelope as documentation
- Take a photo of the fuel gauge showing a full tank and a photo of the vehicle's exterior condition before walking away
Be aware that when you drop off after hours, the vehicle will not be formally inspected until the next business day. Any damage noted during that inspection could be attributed to your rental period, so photographic evidence of the car's condition at return is important.
Your rental agreement from National will include the specific after-hours return instructions and a contact number for the Warwick location. Review those instructions before your return date so you are not caught off guard upon arrival.
