No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your 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 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 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 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)

Your van hire collection at T.F. Green Airport (PVD), located at 700 Jefferson Blvd, Warwick, RI 02886, is straightforward. After collecting your baggage, follow the car hire signs inside the terminal to the Interlink consolidated hire facility. No shuttle is required, and the walk from the terminal to the counters is short.

Major brands serving van hires at this Warwick airport include Avis, Budget, National, Hertz, and Thrifty. Counter hours run approximately 6:00 AM to 12:30 AM daily, which accommodates most arriving flights.

Allow roughly 20 to 45 minutes from landing to driving your van away, accounting for baggage claim, the walk to the counters, paperwork, and vehicle inspection. For after-hours van returns, a 24-hour key drop box is available at the 700 Jefferson Blvd lot.

To collect your van hire in Warwick, bring the following physical documents to the counter:

• A valid, original driving licence in the main driver’s name (digital copies are not accepted)
• A major credit card with the driver’s name printed on the card, for the authorisation hold
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• A passport or valid government photo ID (required for international visitors)
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets if you are visiting from abroad

If your driving 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 alongside your original licence. The IDP is a translation only and cannot be used without the original.

One important note specific to Warwick and Rhode Island: if you are hiring a 12 or 15-passenger van, you must also carry liability insurance that transfers to a large passenger van. For commercial auto policies, a minimum of US$1,000,000 in liability cover is required. Confirm this with your hire provider before collection.

No, drivers under 25 cannot hire a 12 or 15-passenger van in Warwick, Rhode Island. Rhode Island hire providers require the main driver to be at least 25 years old for large passenger van hires, and no young-driver exception applies to these vehicle classes.

For standard vans and smaller vehicle categories, drivers aged 21 to 24 may be eligible in Warwick but will be subject to a daily young-renter surcharge. The surcharge amount varies by hire partner:

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

Drivers under 21 cannot hire a van in Warwick under standard policies. If you are 21 to 24 and from Latin America or the Caribbean, check whether your Hola Car Rentals confirmation shows an underage fee waiver for eligible vehicle categories through Avis or Budget.

Yes, there are toll roads relevant to your van hire in Warwick, Rhode Island, though the system is relatively simple compared to states like New York or Florida.

The main toll you are likely to encounter is the Newport Bridge (also called the Claiborne Pell Bridge), which connects Newport to Jamestown. Costs per crossing for a standard 2-axle vehicle are:

• E-ZPass (Rhode Island resident): US$0.83
• E-ZPass (non-resident): US$4.00
• Bill by Mail (no transponder, licence plate capture): US$6.00

Rhode Island also operates the RhodeWorks Truck Toll system at 12 locations on I-95, I-295, I-195, and other routes near Warwick. Passenger vans are not charged under this programme; it applies to heavy trucks only.

Your van hire vehicle in Warwick comes 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 partner) or pay per use. If you opt out, the hire company will charge actual toll amounts plus administrative fees to your card after the hire ends. Driving through a cashless toll without enrolling triggers Bill by Mail at US$6.00 per Newport Bridge crossing, plus potential hire company admin fees of US$15 or more per unpaid toll.

Yes, all Hola Car Rentals rates include Tolls Cashback, which reimburses you up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your van hire in Warwick.

This is especially useful if you cross the Newport Bridge near Warwick, where Bill by Mail charges US$6.00 per crossing and E-ZPass non-resident rates are US$4.00 per crossing. Those costs add up quickly over a multi-day van hire.

To claim your cashback after returning your van 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 hire agreement, and a toll receipt or invoice showing 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. Late submissions received after 30 days are not accepted.

Warwick has two types of van hire collection locations, each with distinct advantages depending on your circumstances.

T.F. Green Airport (PVD), 700 Jefferson Blvd, Warwick, offers:

• Extended daily hours, approximately 6:00 AM to 12:30 AM
• No shuttle needed, counters accessible directly from the terminal via signage
• 24-hour van drop-off with key boxes
• Typical collection time of 20 to 45 minutes from landing

Off-airport city locations in Warwick, such as Enterprise at 1101 Post Rd or 1276 Bald Hill Rd, offer:

• Operating hours of Monday to Friday 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Saturday 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, closed Sunday
• Collection service available by arrangement, but no after-hours van collection
• After-hours key drop for returns only
• Typically lower rates than airport locations nationally, often 20 to 30% less

If you are arriving by plane, the airport location is the most practical choice for your van hire. If you are already in the Warwick area and have flexible timing on weekdays, an off-airport location may reduce costs.

Yes, a major credit card is required to hire a van in Warwick. The card must be in the main driver’s name with the driver’s name physically printed on the card, and it must be presented in person at the counter. Digital wallets, virtual cards, and prepaid cards are not accepted for the authorisation hold.

For large passenger vans (12 or 15 seats) in Warwick, a major credit card rather than a debit card is typically required, so plan accordingly.

At collection, the hire partner will place a temporary authorisation hold on your card. Typical holds in the United Kingdom range from GBP 200 to GBP 300 for standard vehicles, though the amount may be higher for larger vans. This hold reduces your available credit until your bank releases it after the hire ends, which can take up to 15 business days.

Bring a backup credit card in your name in case your primary card is declined, and notify your bank of your travel dates to prevent fraud blocks on in-person transactions in Warwick.

Insurance requirements for a van hire in Warwick depend on the size of the van you are hiring.

For standard passenger vans, your booking confirmation will show whether Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) is included. CDW and LDW reduce your financial liability for damage to the hire van from a collision, theft, or vandalism, subject to any excess shown on your confirmation. They do not cover damage you cause to other vehicles or people.

For third-party liability (injuries or property damage to others), you need LIS, ALI, or SLI cover. Some UK states require hire companies to include state-minimum liability, but not all do. Adding supplemental liability up to GBP 250,000 is strongly recommended for any van hire in Warwick.

For 12 and 15-passenger vans in Warwick specifically, Rhode Island requires that all renters and additional drivers carry liability insurance that transfers to a large passenger van. If you hold a commercial auto policy, a minimum of GBP 800,000 in liability cover is required. This is a renter obligation, not automatically included in the hire rate, so verify your cover before arriving at the Warwick counter.

Most Hola Car Rentals bookings include travel assistance through Terrawind Global Protection, which can be valuable if something goes wrong during your van hire in Warwick or while driving on Rhode Island highways such as I-95.

Core benefits typically include:

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

This cover is designed for travellers hiring abroad and does not apply to residents of the United Kingdom or Ireland. If you are a UK or Irish resident hiring a van in Warwick, this benefit does not qualify for you.

To reach assistance 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, contact Terrawind at +1 888 980 9992 (toll-free) or via WhatsApp at +1 208 910 1001. Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call. This cover does not replace CDW or LDW for damage to the van itself, nor does it cover third-party liability.

Rhode Island enforces some of the strictest speeding penalties in the United States, and they apply directly to your van hire in Warwick.

Fines escalate as follows:

• First offence exceeding the limit by more than 10 mph: US$10 per mile over the limit
• Repeat offence within 12 months: US$15 to US$20 per mile over the limit
• Potential licence suspension of up to 60 days for repeat violations

Speed limits change frequently near Warwick. Interstate segments can drop from 65 mph on rural stretches to 55 mph in urban zones, and local roads near Warwick typically run at 45 to 50 mph. School and construction zones carry additional penalties.

Automated speed cameras are in use in some areas, which is uncommon in many other US states. A proposed Super Speeder Accountability Act targeting the I-95 corridor through Warwick would further increase penalties for reckless driving.

Driving a larger van requires extra stopping distance, so maintaining appropriate speeds on Warwick's I-95 interchanges and RI-117 is both a legal and practical priority.

Yes, rotaries (traffic circles) are common near Warwick and on Rhode Island roads generally, and they can surprise drivers who are not familiar with them, particularly when manoeuvring a larger van.

The key rule in Rhode Island is that vehicles already inside the rotary have the right of way. Drivers entering the rotary must yield to circulating traffic before merging. This differs from some US states and many international road systems where entering traffic may have priority.

Rotaries are especially prevalent near Warwick on I-95 and RI-117 interchanges. In a van, approach rotaries at reduced speed to allow for the wider turning radius and limited visibility typical of larger vehicles.

Additional driving rules in Warwick worth noting for van hire drivers include:

• Rhode Island enforces primary mobile phone laws, meaning police can stop you solely for handheld phone use
• You must yield to pedestrians in crosswalks and maintain at least 1 metre (3 feet) of clearance when passing cyclists
• The move-over law requires you to change lanes or reduce speed when passing emergency or tow vehicles
• Right turns on red are permitted after a full stop, but are prohibited at many intersections in denser Warwick areas

Your van hire in Warwick follows a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You receive the van with a full tank and must return it full to avoid fuel charges.

At collection in Warwick, 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 gauge before leaving the lot.

When returning your van in Warwick, refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location so the gauge does not drop below full before you arrive. Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address.

If you return the van with less than a full tank, you may be charged:

• A fuel shortfall at the hire partner’s refuelling rate, which is typically higher than retail pump prices
• A refuelling service or administrative fee on top of the fuel cost

Some Warwick counter locations may offer a prepaid fuel option at collection. If you accept it, the Full-to-Full policy is replaced and any unused fuel is generally non-refundable, so it is usually only worthwhile if you are certain you will not have time to refuel before returning the van.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your van hire in Warwick, but the additional driver must be present at the counter at collection with their own valid driving licence and any required identification.

Check your booking confirmation first. Some Hola Car Rentals rates include one additional driver at no extra cost. If your rate does not include it, daily fees apply:

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

For large passenger vans (12 or 15 seats) in Warwick, all additional drivers must also carry liability insurance that transfers to the large passenger van, the same requirement that applies to the main driver.

Note that for Avis, Budget, and Payless, additional drivers must generally be at least 25 years old at the time of collection in Warwick. Any driver not listed on the hire agreement is not covered by CDW, LDW, or liability protections, so always add every person who will drive the van before leaving the counter.
