No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your Hertz booking in Savannah 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 Hertz 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 Hertz counter in Savannah 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 Hertz 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)

The Hertz counter at Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport (SAV) is located inside the terminal in the baggage claim area. No shuttle or train is required, as the rental car lots are covered and adjacent to the main terminal building, making it a short walk from baggage claim directly to your vehicle.

This on-site setup means you can proceed from collecting your luggage to the Hertz counter without leaving the terminal complex. Allow roughly 20 to 45 minutes from landing to driving away, depending on baggage wait times and counter queues.

The Hertz airport counter in Savannah operates Sunday through Saturday, 7:00 am to 12:00 am (midnight). If you are arriving close to midnight, plan accordingly, as after-hours pickup details are not guaranteed beyond that window.

Hertz operates two main locations in Savannah with different hours.

• Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport (SAV): open Sunday through Saturday, 7:00 am to 12:00 am (midnight). This is the most convenient option if you are arriving by plane.
• Abercorn Street branch (8404 Abercorn Street, Savannah, GA 31406): open Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 6:00 pm, and Saturday, 9:00 am to 1:00 pm. This location is closed on Sundays.

If your flight lands late or you need to pick up outside standard business hours, the Hertz airport counter in Savannah is your best option given its extended hours. Always confirm hours directly with Hertz before your trip, as schedules can change on public holidays.

Yes, Hertz has an off-airport location in Savannah at 8404 Abercorn Street, Savannah, GA 31406, near the Historic District.

This branch is a standalone city location, meaning it is not connected to Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport. If you pick up at the Abercorn Street Hertz location, you will need to arrange your own transportation from the airport, such as a taxi, ride-share, or shuttle, as there is no direct terminal access.

Key differences between the two Hertz options in Savannah:

• Airport (SAV): counter inside baggage claim, adjacent covered lots, open until midnight daily
• Abercorn Street: standalone city branch, Monday to Friday 8:00 am to 6:00 pm, Saturday 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, closed Sundays

The off-airport Hertz location in Savannah may offer different pricing, so it is worth comparing both options when booking.

Savannah itself does not have traditional toll roads, and Georgia as a state has no standard toll highways in the Savannah area. However, if you plan to drive your Hertz rental from Savannah toward Atlanta, you may encounter Georgia Express Lanes, which use dynamic pricing and are entirely cashless.

Key facts about Georgia tolls for Hertz renters:

• Georgia Express Lanes use the Peach Pass transponder system; Sun Pass and Quick Pass are also compatible
• Pricing is dynamic, ranging from approximately US$0.10 to US$0.90 per mile depending on congestion
• No cash payment is accepted at any point; all tolls are collected electronically by transponder or license plate recognition
• Vehicles with 3 or more occupants may use Peach Pass express lanes toll-free

Your Hertz rental vehicle in Savannah will include 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, where Hertz will charge actual tolls plus administrative fees after the rental ends. Driving through a toll lane without a valid pass can result in additional charges billed to your card.

To pick up your Hertz rental in Savannah, you must bring the following physical documents:

• Valid driver's license (original, unexpired, physical card) in the main driver's name
• International Driving Permit (IDP) if your license uses a non-Latin alphabet such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic; an IDP is also recommended if your license is not in English
• Major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, in the main driver's name, for the security deposit hold
• Passport or valid government photo ID
• Booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets (required for international visitors)

Digital documents are not accepted at the Hertz counter in Savannah. All documents must be physical originals. The IDP is a translation only and must be carried alongside your original license, not as a replacement for it.

Debit and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security deposit hold. Bring a backup credit card in your name in case your primary card is declined.

Savannah's downtown layout is unlike any standard US city grid, and it will directly affect how you navigate your Hertz rental in the Historic District.

The city was built around 22 historic squares, each roughly one acre, placed at regular intervals throughout the grid. These squares function like mandatory traffic circles: you cannot drive straight through them and must navigate around each one. This slows traffic considerably and requires constant turns on narrow, often brick-paved streets.

What to expect when driving your Hertz rental in Savannah:

• Expect a slower, more deliberate pace through the Historic District compared to typical US city driving
• Streets like Jones Street retain original red brick paving, which can feel different underfoot and requires reduced speed
• One-way street systems are common throughout the historic core
• The Talmadge Memorial Bridge marks the entry to the historic district from the west and involves elevation changes down to River Street
• Cyclist traffic is heavier than average due to the local college presence

Using GPS navigation is strongly recommended for first-time drivers in Savannah, as the square-based layout can be disorienting if you are accustomed to uninterrupted grid systems.

Yes, all bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include Tolls Cashback, which applies to your Hertz rental in Savannah and any tolls you pay during the rental period, including Georgia Express Lanes if you drive toward Atlanta.

How Tolls Cashback works:

• You receive up to 5% of your total booking value back for tolls paid during the rental
• Example: if your booking total is US$500, the maximum cashback is US$25; if you paid US$15 in tolls, you receive US$15 back
• You still pay tolls normally during the rental; the cashback is a reimbursement after you submit a claim

To claim your cashback after returning your Hertz rental in Savannah:

• 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 Hertz rental agreement, and a toll receipt or statement showing charges paid

Refunds are processed to your original payment method within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Late submissions beyond 30 days are not accepted.

When you pick up your Hertz rental in Savannah, a temporary authorization hold will be placed on your credit card. This is not a charge; it reduces your available credit until released after the rental ends.

For Hertz rentals in the United States, including Savannah, the typical hold is approximately US$300 to US$400 for standard vehicle classes. The exact amount can vary based on:

• Vehicle class (premium or specialty vehicles may carry a higher hold)
• Rental duration and location
• Hertz's specific policies at the Savannah counter

Important requirements for the deposit at the Hertz counter in Savannah:

• A physical, major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card is required; debit and prepaid cards are not accepted
• The card must be in the main driver's name
• You must have sufficient available credit to cover the hold plus any expected charges

After you return the vehicle, Hertz releases the hold, but your bank controls when it reappears in your available credit, which can take up to 15 business days. Bringing a backup credit card is always recommended.

The minimum age to rent a car with Hertz in Savannah without additional surcharges is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent but will be subject to a daily young-renter surcharge, and most vehicle classes are restricted.

Key age rules for Hertz rentals in Savannah:

• 25 and older: no underage surcharge, full vehicle class access
• 21 to 24: young-renter surcharge applies daily; vehicle classes are typically limited to economy, compact, and intermediate categories
• Under 21: generally not eligible to rent at Hertz in Savannah

Georgia is not one of the states (like New York or Michigan) that legally requires rental companies to rent to drivers aged 18 and older, so the standard Hertz policy of 21 as the floor applies in Savannah.

If you are adding an additional driver to your Hertz rental in Savannah, note that Hertz charges approximately US$13.50 per rental day for additional drivers, up to a maximum of US$189, plus applicable taxes. Additional drivers must also meet age requirements and be present at pickup with a valid license.

Hertz rentals in Savannah follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy by default. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid fuel charges.

Steps to avoid fuel charges on your Hertz rental in Savannah:

• At pickup, check the fuel gauge with the Hertz 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 so the gauge does not drop before you arrive
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address
• For after-hours returns at the Savannah airport, leave the receipt in the key envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge

If you return the Hertz vehicle in Savannah below the recorded starting level, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at Hertz's refueling rate, which is typically higher than retail pump prices, plus a refueling service fee. Using the correct fuel type is also important, as wrong-fuel incidents are not covered by the fuel policy.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Hertz rental in Savannah, either as part of your booking rate or by paying a fee at the counter.

If your booking confirmation does not show an additional driver as included, Hertz charges approximately US$13.50 per rental day for each additional driver in Savannah, with a maximum cap of US$189 plus applicable taxes.

Requirements for adding an additional driver at the Hertz counter in Savannah:

• The additional driver must be present at pickup with a valid, physical driver's license
• They must meet the same minimum age requirements (21 to 24 with a surcharge, 25 and older without)
• If their license uses a non-Latin alphabet, an International Driving Permit is also required
• Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement

Only drivers listed on the Hertz rental agreement in Savannah are covered by protections such as CDW/LDW and liability coverage. If someone drives who is not named on the contract, coverage may be void and additional charges could apply.

Most bookings made through Hola Car Rentals, including Hertz rentals in Savannah, include travel assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection. However, this benefit does not apply to residents of the United States or Canada.

For eligible renters picking up a Hertz vehicle in Savannah, the travel assistance typically covers:

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

This coverage is particularly useful if you experience a medical emergency or an accident while driving your Hertz rental in Savannah or on Georgia highways. It does not cover damage to the rental vehicle itself (that is CDW/LDW) or third-party liability (that is LIS/SLI).

To use the assistance, contact Terrawind 24 hours a day, 7 days a week:

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

Always check your booking confirmation for the exact terms and coverage limits that apply to your Hertz reservation in Savannah.

Early pickup for your Hertz rental in Savannah depends on vehicle availability at the time you arrive. It is not guaranteed, and changing your pickup time may reprice your reservation.

What to expect if you want to pick up your Hertz rental in Savannah earlier:

• Availability is determined at the counter on the day; the Hertz agent will confirm whether the vehicle is ready
• If you change your pickup time before arriving, your booking may be repriced based on the new rental period
• The Hertz airport counter in Savannah opens at 7:00 am daily, so early morning arrivals can proceed directly to the counter
• The Abercorn Street Hertz location in Savannah opens at 8:00 am on weekdays and 9:00 am on Saturdays, which limits very early pickup at that branch

If your flight arrives significantly earlier than your scheduled pickup time, it is worth going to the Hertz counter in Savannah to ask, as the vehicle may already be available. However, plan for the possibility that you may need to wait until your confirmed time before the rental begins.
