No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your SUV booking in Georgia 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, whether you are renting an SUV or any other vehicle class. This is a pricing guarantee (not insurance) that protects you if the counter in Georgia 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 rental 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)

Yes, all major SUV rental brands at Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport (ATL) in Georgia operate from a single consolidated facility called the Rental Car Center, located at 2200 Rental Car Center Parkway in College Park.

To reach the Rental Car Center from the terminals, take the ATL SkyTrain from any terminal to the Rental Car Center station. The ride takes just a few minutes and runs continuously. Once inside the building, follow signage for your specific brand. Partners offering SUV rentals at this Georgia facility include Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, National, Payless, and Thrifty.

Most counters at the ATL Rental Car Center operate approximately 07:00 to 23:30 daily, though hours can vary by brand. Check your booking confirmation for the exact counter hours for your SUV rental. When returning your SUV, drive directly to the Rental Car Center at the same address and follow the return lane signs for your brand.

To pick up your SUV rental in Georgia, you must bring the following physical documents to the counter:

• A valid, original driver's license in the main driver's name
• A major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, in the main driver's name, for the security deposit hold
• A passport or valid government 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 for your Georgia SUV rental. For all other non-English licenses, an IDP is strongly recommended. The IDP must be carried alongside your original license and is not accepted on its own.

All documents must be physical. Digital copies shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted at the counter in Georgia.

Yes, toll roads exist in the Atlanta metropolitan area of Georgia, and you will likely encounter them when driving your SUV rental around the city.

Georgia does not have traditional toll highways, but it operates a network called Georgia Express Lanes on several major interstates. These lanes use dynamic pricing that changes based on traffic demand. Key routes include:

• I-85 Express Lanes (15 miles, Atlanta to Gwinnett County): US$0.10 to US$0.90 per mile
• I-85 Express Lanes Extension (10 miles, toward Suwanee and Buford): minimum US$0.10 per mile
• I-75 Express Lane (12 miles, Atlanta to Stockbridge): minimum US$0.10 per mile
• Northwest Corridor Express Lane (I-75 and I-575, toward Marietta and Kennesaw): minimum US$0.10 per mile

All Georgia Express Lanes are fully cashless. The primary transponder system is Peach Pass, though Sun Pass and Quick Pass are also compatible. Cameras record every license plate entering the lanes, so driving through without a valid pass will result in a toll charge billed to the rental company, which is then passed on to you along with an administrative processing fee.

Your SUV rental in Georgia 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) or pay per use. If you have 3 or more passengers in your SUV, you may use Peach Pass express lanes toll-free under the carpool exemption.

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 SUV rental in Georgia.

Given that the Atlanta area uses Georgia Express Lanes with dynamic pricing, toll costs can add up quickly on an SUV rental. This benefit helps offset those charges.

To claim your cashback after returning your SUV in Georgia:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of returning the vehicle
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - HOLA followed by your confirmation number
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation, the signed rental 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. Note that this benefit reimburses tolls only, not administrative fees charged by the rental company for toll processing.

Yes, a security deposit hold is required for every SUV rental in Georgia, and the amount is higher for SUVs than for standard economy vehicles.

For most SUV rentals in Georgia, the typical hold placed on your credit card ranges from US$300 to US$400 for standard models, and can be higher for full-size, premium, or luxury SUVs. The exact amount is set by the rental partner at the counter and may vary by brand, location, and season.

Important things to know about the deposit for your Georgia SUV rental:

• The hold is a temporary authorization, not a charge. It reduces your available credit until released after you return the vehicle
• You must present a physical major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card. Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted
• Your bank controls how quickly the hold is released after return, which can take up to 15 business days
• Bring a backup credit card in case your primary card is declined

If you prepaid your SUV rental online, a deposit hold is still required at the counter in Georgia.

Yes, a wide range of SUV models is available for rent in Georgia, primarily at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL).

Common compact and midsize SUV options include:

• Jeep Compass (from approximately US$47 per day)
• Ford Escape and Toyota RAV4 (from approximately US$56 per day)
• Nissan Rogue (from approximately US$51 to US$57 per day)
• Chevrolet Equinox and Hyundai Santa Fe

Full-size and larger SUV options available in Georgia include:

• Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Wrangler
• Ford Explorer (from approximately US$62 per day)
• Chevrolet Traverse, Chevrolet Tahoe, and GMC Yukon XL
• BMW X3 (from approximately US$75 per day)

Pricing for SUV rentals in Georgia starts at around US$30 per day and averages US$38 to US$82 per day including taxes and fees, depending on the model, dates, and demand. Booking your Georgia SUV rental in advance is recommended, as high demand at ATL can limit availability. Note that drivers under 25 are restricted from renting most full-size and premium SUV categories.

Yes, the standard fuel policy for SUV rentals in Georgia is Full-to-Full, meaning you receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid extra charges.

Because SUVs typically get 20 to 25 miles per gallon, fuel costs are a more significant consideration than with smaller vehicles. Here is how to manage the fuel policy correctly for your Georgia SUV rental:

• At pickup, check the fuel gauge with the agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on the rental agreement
• Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge
• Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location at the ATL Rental Car Center in Georgia before dropping off your SUV
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address

If you return your SUV in Georgia with less than a full tank, the rental partner will charge you for the fuel shortfall at their own refueling rate, which is typically higher than pump prices, plus a service fee. Some counter locations may offer a prepaid fuel option, but any unused fuel is generally non-refundable, so Full-to-Full is usually the better value for most Georgia SUV rentals.

Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection, and this applies to your SUV rental in Georgia as well. However, this benefit does not apply to residents of the United States or Canada.

For eligible renters driving an SUV through Georgia, including on rural mountain roads in the north of the state or along interstate highways, the coverage typically includes:

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

This coverage does not include damage to the rental SUV itself (that is handled by CDW/LDW) or third-party liability (covered by LIS/ALI/SLI).

If you need assistance during your Georgia SUV rental, contact Terrawind 24 hours a day:

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

Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call. Always check your booking confirmation for the exact terms and coverage limits that apply to your specific reservation.

Yes, insurance coverage is an important consideration for any SUV rental in Georgia, and there are two main types to understand.

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) covers damage to the rental SUV itself from a collision, theft, or vandalism. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation shows zero deductible. CDW/LDW does not cover damage to other vehicles or injuries to other people.

Third-Party Liability (LIS/ALI/SLI) covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to others while driving your SUV in Georgia. Some U.S. states require rental companies to include a state-minimum liability amount, but not all do. Hola Car Rentals strongly recommends adding Liability Insurance Supplementary (up to US$300,000) to your Georgia SUV rental for adequate protection.

Common exclusions to be aware of for your Georgia SUV rental:

• Off-road use voids CDW/LDW coverage
• Driving under the influence voids all coverage
• Tires, undercarriage, and roof damage are often excluded unless a specific add-on is purchased
• Only drivers named on the rental agreement are covered

Check your booking confirmation to see which coverages are already included in your rate before accepting or declining anything at the counter.

Yes, age restrictions apply to SUV rentals in Georgia, and they are stricter for larger vehicle categories.

The general rules for renting an SUV in Georgia are:

• Drivers 25 and older can rent any available SUV class without an age surcharge
• Drivers aged 21 to 24 may rent in Georgia but will pay a daily young-renter surcharge and are restricted from most full-size, premium, and luxury SUV categories
• Drivers under 21 cannot rent in Georgia

For drivers aged 21 to 24, the eligible SUV categories in Georgia are typically limited to compact and intermediate SUVs. Full-size SUVs, premium SUVs, and specialty models generally require the driver to be at least 25.

Young-renter surcharge amounts vary by partner. As a reference, Alamo, National, and Enterprise charge approximately US$15 per day, while Avis, Budget, and Payless charge approximately US$13 per day plus taxes.

One exception applies to drivers aged 21 to 24 from Latin America and the Caribbean renting through Avis or Budget in Georgia: the underage fee may be waived on eligible compact and midsize SUV categories when the waiver is explicitly shown on the booking confirmation. Check your confirmation to see if this applies to your Georgia SUV rental.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your SUV rental in Georgia, either as an included benefit or for a fee paid at the counter, depending on your rate.

Check your booking confirmation for the line that reads Additional driver free of charge. If it appears, the first extra driver is included at no cost. If it does not appear, the daily fees for your Georgia SUV rental are approximately:

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

The additional driver must be present at the pickup counter at the ATL Rental Car Center in Georgia with a valid driver's license and any required IDP. Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement. Anyone who drives the SUV in Georgia without being listed on the agreement is not covered by CDW/LDW or liability protections.

Note that for Avis, Budget, and Payless, additional drivers must generally be at least 25 years old at pickup in Georgia.

Yes, one-way SUV rentals are generally available in Georgia, allowing you to pick up at one location and return in a different state, though a drop-off fee may apply.

When booking a one-way SUV rental from Georgia, the drop-off fee is shown during checkout under the To pay at destination section. This fee is route-specific and varies by rental partner, distance, vehicle class, and season. Large SUVs and premium models typically carry higher repositioning fees than compact SUVs.

Key things to know about one-way SUV rentals from Georgia:

• Same-city routes, such as ATL airport to downtown Atlanta, often have no drop-off fee
• Georgia to another state typically incurs a drop-off fee that varies by distance and partner
• Cross-border rentals (for example, driving into Canada or Mexico) are generally restricted or require prior partner approval
• Changing your return location after booking may reprice the rental and recalculate the fee

If a drop-off fee was shown on your confirmation but the counter charges a different amount, keep all paperwork and contact support. The No Extra Charges© guarantee covers undisclosed fees that were not listed on your confirmation.

Yes, SUV rentals in Georgia are subject to several taxes and fees beyond the base rate, and these are particularly significant at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL).

Typical charges added to an SUV rental at ATL in Georgia include:

• State rental car tax: approximately 7 to 8%
• Local Atlanta tax: up to an additional 7%
• Airport Concession Recovery Fee (ACRF): up to approximately US$9.50 per day at ATL
• Customer Facility Charge (CFC): approximately US$5 to US$7 per day
• Vehicle License Recovery Fee: a small daily or per-use charge

These charges can add 14% or more to the base rate of your Georgia SUV rental, plus the fixed daily airport fees. Off-airport SUV rental locations in Georgia, such as downtown Atlanta branches, typically avoid the airport concession fee and may be 20 to 40% cheaper overall, though you will need to arrange transportation from ATL to the off-airport counter.

Your booking confirmation will show which taxes and fees are included in your prepaid rate and which are due at the counter. If your confirmation shows Taxes and Fees: Included and you are still charged for those items at the Georgia counter, the No Extra Charges© guarantee applies.
