No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your van booking in Denver 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 a van or any other vehicle class. This is a pricing guarantee (not insurance) that protects you if the counter in Denver 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)

All major van rental companies at Denver International Airport (DEN) operate from off-airport facilities on E 78th Ave, not inside the terminal. You cannot walk to the counters.

To reach your van rental counter, follow these steps:

• After collecting your bags, go to Level 5 of the Jeppesen Terminal and exit to Island 4 (Doors 504-512 on the west side with red signs, or Doors 505-513 on the east side with blue signs)
• Board the courtesy shuttle for your rental brand. Avis, National, Alamo, and Enterprise all depart from Island 4; Sixt departs from the north end of Island 4
• Shuttles run every 10 minutes and the ride takes approximately 5 to 7 minutes
• At the facility, complete your rental agreement at the counter and proceed to pick up your van

From baggage claim to driving away in your Denver van rental, allow 30 to 60 minutes depending on shuttle wait times and counter lines. Most facilities operate 24 hours, and self-service kiosks are available after hours.

All toll roads in the Denver area are fully cashless. There are no cash booths anywhere on the network, so your van rental will be billed automatically through license plate cameras or a transponder.

The main toll roads you may encounter with your Denver van rental include:

• E-470: a 47-mile loop around Denver, including the route to and from the airport
• I-25 Express Lanes: approximately 7 miles between US-36 and downtown Denver, costing US$0.50 to US$5.00 per trip depending on time of day
• US-36 Express Lanes and Northwest Parkway

At the counter, you can enroll in your rental company's toll pass program. Typical costs range from US$4.95 per day (Enterprise TollPass) to US$14.99 per day or US$74.95 per week for unlimited use with other brands. If you do not enroll, your rental company will receive the license plate toll invoice and charge you the undiscounted toll amount plus an administrative fee, which can reach US$9.99 per day or US$15 per toll event (up to US$90 per rental).

Enrolling in a toll program at pickup is usually the most cost-effective option for a Denver van rental that uses express lanes or E-470.

To pick up your van rental in Denver, you must bring the following physical documents. Digital copies are not accepted at any rental 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, 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 uses a non-Latin alphabet (for example, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic), you must also carry an International Driving Permit (IDP) alongside your original license. The IDP is a translation only and is not valid on its own.

Debit and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security deposit on a Denver van rental. Bring a major credit card with sufficient available credit to cover the hold, which is typically US$300 to US$400 for standard vehicles in the United States.

Yes, all bookings include Tolls Cashback, which lets you recover up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your Denver van rental.

Given that Denver's toll network is entirely cashless and includes heavily used roads like E-470 and the I-25 Express Lanes, toll costs can add up quickly over a multi-day van rental. This benefit helps offset those charges.

To claim your cashback after returning your van in Denver:

• 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 booking confirmation, the signed rental agreement, and a toll receipt or invoice showing charges paid during your rental period

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. This benefit does not mean tolls are included in your rate; you still pay tolls normally and claim reimbursement afterward.

Yes, Denver enforces stricter street parking rules for vans than for standard passenger cars, and these rules can significantly affect how you plan your stay.

If your rental van exceeds 22 feet in length or 6,000 lbs in empty weight, the following restrictions apply:

• Street parking is limited to a maximum of 2 hours between 8 AM and 10 PM
• After each parking period, the van must be moved at least 700 feet, not just around the block as with a regular car (which only requires a 100-foot move)
• Overnight street parking in residential areas, parks, and roadways is prohibited for vans and camper-style vehicles

These rules apply citywide, including industrial zones, unless the vehicle is actively servicing a nearby property. Even a standard full-size rental van may fall into the large-vehicle category depending on its specifications.

Before driving your Denver van rental into the city center, confirm the vehicle's dimensions and empty weight at the counter so you can plan accordingly. Violations can result in fines or towing.

Denver operates one of the more aggressive photo radar programs in the United States, and it can catch van rental drivers off guard because enforcement happens on residential streets, not just highways.

Key facts about photo radar in Denver that affect your van rental:

• Mobile photo radar vans are deployed on residential streets with speed limits of 35 MPH or lower, in park-adjacent zones, school zones, and work zones, operating daily from 6 AM to 9:30 PM
• Deployment is driven by resident complaints, so enforcement locations change frequently
• Four fixed red-light cameras operate 24 hours a day at specific intersections, issuing citations for stop-bar violations (US$40 to US$75) and running red lights (US$75)
• No license points are issued for these violations, but tickets are mailed to the registered owner of the rental vehicle, which means they will be forwarded to you

For stop-bar violations, a citation is only issued if your front tires fully cross the stop line. Staying behind the line protects pedestrians and avoids fines. Driving your Denver van rental at or below posted limits in residential areas is the simplest way to avoid unexpected charges after your trip.

Yes, a major credit card in the main driver's name is required to rent a van in Denver. The card must be a physical card with the driver's name printed on it; digital wallets, virtual cards, and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security deposit hold.

At pickup, the rental company will place a temporary authorization hold on your card. For standard vehicles in the United States, this is typically US$300 to US$400, though the amount can be higher for larger vehicles like a full-size van. The hold reduces your available credit until it is released after you return the vehicle, which can take up to 15 business days depending on your bank.

A few tips to avoid problems at the Denver van rental counter:

• Notify your bank before traveling so the in-person authorization is not flagged as suspicious
• Bring a backup credit card in your name in case your primary card is declined
• Make sure your card has enough available credit to cover both the hold and any expected charges

Yes, after-hours van rental returns are available 24 hours a day at Denver International Airport rental facilities.

To return your van after hours at Denver Airport, follow these steps:

• From the airport road network, follow the Car Rental Return signs via Pena Boulevard, 75th Avenue, or Gun Club Road to reach the E 78th Ave rental facilities
• Pull into the designated return lanes for your rental brand
• Park the van in the marked return area and place the keys on the dashboard or in the designated key drop box at the facility
• The rental company will close your agreement electronically after inspecting the vehicle
• A 24-hour courtesy shuttle operates from the return area back to the Jeppesen Terminal, with a ride of approximately 5 to 7 minutes

For a smooth after-hours Denver van rental return, refuel within approximately 10 miles of the airport before arriving, take a photo of the fuel gauge and odometer, and keep your receipt. Leave a copy of the receipt in the key envelope if one is provided. Your final rental receipt will be sent to the email address on your booking.

Yes, most bookings include travel assistance through Terrawind Global Protection, which can help in situations such as a breakdown or accident during your Denver van rental. However, this benefit does not apply to customers who are residents of the United States or Canada.

The travel assistance coverage included with eligible bookings provides:

• Medical coverage for up to 5 passengers in the event of an accident or non-pre-existing illness
• Legal assistance in the event of an accident
• Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
• Flight cancellation insurance

This coverage is not a substitute for Collision Damage Waiver (CDW/LDW), which protects the van itself, or for Third-Party Liability (LIS/ALI/SLI), which covers damage or injury you cause to others. For a complete Denver van rental protection package, you should have all three in place.

To reach the assistance line 24 hours a day, call +1 888 980 9992 (toll-free) or contact WhatsApp at +1 208 910 1001. Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call.

Not always, but it depends on your license. For your Denver van rental, a foreign driver's license is generally accepted in the United States if it is from a country with a reciprocal agreement with the U.S.

An International Driving Permit (IDP) is required alongside your original license if your license uses a non-Latin alphabet, such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic (Russian). In that case, the IDP serves as a translation and must be carried together with your original physical license. It is not a standalone document and will not be accepted without the original.

Even if your license uses the Latin alphabet, carrying an IDP is a good precaution for a Denver van rental, as individual rental company policies can vary. Obtain your IDP in your home country before traveling, as U.S. organizations such as AAA do not issue IDPs to non-U.S. license holders.

All documents presented at the Denver rental counter must be physical originals. Digital or mobile versions of any document are not accepted.

The minimum age to rent a van in Denver without a young-renter surcharge is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent in Colorado but will be charged a daily underage fee, and most van and large vehicle categories are restricted to renters aged 25 and older.

This is an important consideration for Denver van rentals specifically, because vans fall into the restricted vehicle class category. Rental partners including Avis, Budget, Hertz, Alamo, National, and Enterprise all apply class restrictions that typically exclude vans, minivans, full-size SUVs, and premium vehicles for drivers under 25.

If you are aged 21 to 24 and need a larger vehicle for your Denver trip, contact customer service before booking to confirm which vehicle classes are available at your chosen location and brand.

There is one exception worth noting: certain Hola Car Rentals rates fulfilled by Avis or Budget waive the underage fee for drivers aged 21 to 24 who are citizens or residents of Latin America or the Caribbean, but this exception applies only to economy, compact, and mid-size sedan and SUV categories, not to vans.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Denver van rental, either at no cost if your rate includes it or for a daily fee paid at the counter.

If your booking confirmation states that an additional driver is included, the first extra driver is free. If it is not included, the daily fees vary by brand:

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

To add an additional driver to your Denver van rental, the extra driver must be present at the counter at pickup with their own valid driver's license. Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement. Anyone who drives the van 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 the time of pickup in Denver.

Yes, one-way van rentals are possible from Denver, but a drop-off fee typically applies when you return the vehicle to a different location than where you picked it up.

The drop-off fee for your Denver van rental depends on the specific route, the rental brand, the vehicle class, and the dates of travel. Larger vehicles like vans often carry higher repositioning fees than economy cars because they are more costly to move between locations.

How to check whether a drop-off fee applies to your Denver van rental:

• During the booking process, select your different return location and the fee will appear on the rate details page under the To Pay at Destination section
• Your booking confirmation will also list the drop-off fee if one applies to your route
• If no fee appears, your route does not incur a one-way charge

The drop-off fee cannot be prepaid and is paid directly at the rental counter. Cross-border one-way rentals (for example, returning a Denver van rental in Canada) may be restricted or carry significantly higher fees depending on the partner brand. Always confirm cross-border permissions on your rental agreement before driving across state or National borders.
