South Carolina has one primary toll road: the Southern Connector, a 16-mile stretch on Interstate 185 connecting I-185 to I-385 near Greenville. If your SUV rental itinerary takes you through that corridor, this is the only toll facility you will encounter in South Carolina.

The Southern Connector uses the PalPass (also called Palmetto Pass) electronic system, but it also accepts cash and credit or debit cards at mainline plazas. A few ramp locations require exact cash change. PIN debit cards, checks, money orders, and travelers checks are not accepted.

Typical costs on the Southern Connector are distance-based:

• Minimum charge: US$0.075 per axle
• Maximum charge for the full 16-mile route: US$3.00 (two tolls apply)

No congestion charges, emissions zones, or other toll roads exist in South Carolina, so most SUV rental trips in the state will not involve any tolls at all unless you drive near Greenville.

Whether a toll program makes sense for your SUV rental in South Carolina depends on your route. The state has only one toll road, the Southern Connector near Greenville, so if you are not driving in that area, you may not encounter any tolls at all.

If your SUV itinerary does pass through the Southern Connector, major rental brands at South Carolina airports offer optional electronic toll programs such as e-Toll, TollPass, or PlatePass. These typically cost US$3.95 to US$4.95 per day, capped at around US$19.75 per rental period, plus the actual toll charges at prevailing rates.

If you skip the program and drive through a cashless lane, the rental company will bill you via Toll-By-Plate at the highest undiscounted rate plus an administrative fee of roughly US$15 per toll event, capped at approximately US$90 per rental. That can far exceed the cost of enrolling.

• Enrolling makes sense if your South Carolina SUV route passes near Greenville
• Skipping the program is reasonable if you stay in Charleston, Columbia, or Myrtle Beach and avoid I-185/I-385
• You can also pay cash or by card at mainline plazas on the Southern Connector to avoid program fees entirely

Decide at the counter once you know your exact South Carolina driving plan.

Three major airports in South Carolina have on-site SUV rental counters operated by National brands:

• Charleston International Airport (CHS): Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, National, and Thrifty all offer SUV models here. Counter hours at CHS typically run from around 04:00 to 23:59, with brief overnight gaps depending on the brand and day.
• Columbia Metropolitan Airport (CAE): Alamo is among the brands offering SUV options at this location.
• Myrtle Beach International Airport (MYR): Alamo, Avis, Budget, and Dollar offer rentals including SUV classes.

SUV availability in South Carolina is concentrated at these three airports. Smaller cities in the state have limited or no rental counter options, so if your arrival point is one of the major airports, you will have the widest selection of SUV classes and brands to choose from.

Pricing for SUV rentals in South Carolina starts at approximately US$46 per day at CHS and can reach US$78 to US$99 per day depending on the brand, SUV class, and season. Booking in advance is recommended, especially during peak travel periods.

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 South Carolina.

South Carolina has one toll road, the Southern Connector near Greenville, so most SUV trips in the state will involve modest toll costs if any. Still, the cashback benefit applies to whatever tolls you do pay, and it also covers tolls if your South Carolina SUV rental takes you into neighboring states with more extensive toll networks.

To claim your cashback after returning the SUV:

• 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 signed rental agreement, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges

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.

To collect your SUV rental at any South Carolina location, you must present the following physical documents at the counter:

• A valid, original driver's license in the main driver's name (not a digital copy)
• A major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, used for the security deposit hold
• A passport or valid government photo ID
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher if required by the partner
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets (required for international visitors)

If your driver's license is not in English and not issued by an EU or EEA country, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is strongly recommended. If your license uses a non-Latin alphabet such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic, an IDP is mandatory alongside the original license. The IDP is a translation only and cannot be used without the original license.

Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted for the security deposit on your South Carolina SUV rental. Bring a physical 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, the minimum age to rent an SUV in South Carolina is 21, but drivers under 25 will be subject to a young-renter surcharge at most rental brands.

South Carolina is not one of the states (like New York or Michigan) that mandates rentals to drivers aged 18 and older, so the standard U.S. rules apply:

• Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent but pay a daily young-renter surcharge, which varies by brand and location
• Drivers 25 and older pay no underage fee
• Most full-size and premium SUV classes in South Carolina are restricted to renters aged 25 and older; compact and intermediate SUV categories are typically available to younger drivers

At Economy Rent a Car at Charleston International Airport (CHS), for example, the minimum age is 21 with an extra fee for drivers aged 21 to 24. Always confirm the specific surcharge amount and vehicle class restrictions with the brand at your South Carolina pickup location, as amounts vary.

If you are aged 21 to 24 and booking an SUV rental in South Carolina through Avis or Budget, check whether the Hola Car Rentals confirmation shows the underage fee waived, which is available for eligible travelers from Latin America and the Caribbean on specific vehicle categories.

Yes, one-way SUV rentals are possible in South Carolina, but availability and fees depend on the brand and the specific route.

Some brands at Charleston International Airport (CHS) have restrictions on where you can drop off a one-way SUV rental. For example, certain providers limit one-way returns to specific destinations such as Greenville, and dropping off elsewhere may result in a drop-off fee or a penalty. Always confirm the permitted drop-off locations with your chosen brand before booking.

For one-way SUV rentals between South Carolina cities or to other states, a drop-off fee typically applies. This fee is route-specific and varies by brand, distance, vehicle class, and season. On the Hola Car Rentals booking page, any applicable drop-off fee will appear under the "To pay at destination" section during checkout, so you can see the cost before confirming your SUV reservation.

• Same-city airport to downtown: often no drop-off fee
• City to city within South Carolina or to another state: a drop-off fee usually applies
• Cross-border one-ways (for example, to Canada or Mexico): generally restricted or subject to special approval

If you need to change your drop-off location after booking your South Carolina SUV rental, contact support as soon as possible, since mid-rental route changes must be approved by the partner and may increase the fee.

SUV rentals in South Carolina follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You receive the SUV with a full tank and must return it full to avoid fuel charges.

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 gauge before leaving the lot.

When returning your South Carolina SUV, refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location so the gauge does not drop below full before you arrive. Keep the fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address as proof.

• If you return the SUV with less than a full tank, the rental company will charge you for the fuel shortfall at their own refueling rate, which is typically higher than pump prices, plus a refueling service fee
• If the SUV was not full at pickup, the agent must record the exact starting level on the agreement, and you only need to return it at that same level
• For after-hours returns at South Carolina airports, leave the fuel receipt in the key drop envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge on your phone

Using the wrong fuel type (gasoline versus diesel) is not covered by the fuel policy and may generate additional charges, so confirm the correct fuel type for your SUV at pickup.

Most Hola Car Rentals bookings include travel assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection, and this benefit applies to SUV rentals in South Carolina as well. However, this coverage is available only to non-North American customers. Residents of the United States and Canada do not qualify for this benefit.

For eligible renters, the travel assistance package typically includes:

• 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

If you experience a medical emergency or accident while driving your SUV on South Carolina roads, including on rural highways or interstates far from major cities, contact the assistance line immediately:

• Phone (toll-free or collect): +1 888 980 9992, available 24 hours a day
• WhatsApp: +1 208 910 1001
• Email: [email protected]

Provide your full name, your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number, your location, and a brief description of the situation. This coverage does not replace CDW or LDW for damage to the SUV itself, nor does it cover third-party liability to others. Check your booking confirmation for the exact terms and coverage limits that apply to your reservation.

When renting an SUV in South Carolina, two main types of protection are worth reviewing before you arrive at the counter.

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) reduces your financial liability for damage to the SUV itself from a collision, theft, or vandalism. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation explicitly states zero. CDW and LDW do not cover damage you cause to other vehicles or people.

Third-Party Liability (LIS, ALI, or SLI) covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to others while driving the SUV. In South Carolina, as in most U.S. states, state-minimum liability is not automatically guaranteed to be included, so adding supplemental liability coverage is strongly recommended.

• CDW or LDW: protects the rental SUV you are driving
• LIS or SLI: protects others if you cause an accident in South Carolina
• These two coverages work together; one does not replace the other

Check your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation to see which protections are already included in your South Carolina SUV rate. If you are unsure whether your personal auto policy or credit card extends coverage to a rental SUV in South Carolina, confirm with your insurer before declining coverage at the counter.

When you pick up your SUV in South Carolina, the rental company will place a temporary authorization hold on your credit card. This is not a charge; it reduces your available credit until the rental is closed and your bank releases the hold.

For standard vehicles in the United States, the typical hold is around US$300 to US$400. For a larger or premium SUV class in South Carolina, the hold may be higher depending on the brand, location, and season.

• Only a physical major credit card in the main driver's name with the driver's name printed on the card is accepted for the deposit
• Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted
• The card must have sufficient available credit to cover the hold plus any expected charges

After you return the SUV, the rental company releases the hold, but your bank controls when it reappears in your available balance. This can take up to 15 business days, sometimes longer depending on your card issuer.

To avoid issues at the South Carolina pickup counter, notify your bank of your travel dates in advance, confirm international or in-person transactions are enabled, and bring a backup credit card in your name in case your primary card is declined.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your SUV rental in South Carolina, either at no cost if your Hola Car Rentals rate includes it, or for a daily fee paid at the counter if it does not.

When an additional driver fee applies, typical costs at South Carolina rental counters are:

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

The additional driver must be present at the South Carolina pickup counter with a valid driver's license and any required identification. They must also meet the minimum age requirements for the location. For Avis, Budget, and Payless, additional drivers must generally be at least 25 years old.

Only drivers listed on the rental agreement are covered by protections such as CDW, LDW, and liability coverage for your South Carolina SUV. Anyone who drives the SUV without being named on the contract may void those protections and expose you to additional charges.

Check your booking confirmation before arriving to see whether an additional driver is already included in your South Carolina SUV rate.

Returning your SUV late in South Carolina may result in extra charges from the rental company. Most partners allow a grace period of approximately 30 minutes beyond the scheduled return time, but this is not guaranteed at every South Carolina location.

If you exceed the grace period, the rental company may charge for additional hours or a full extra day, plus a late return fee depending on the brand and the specific South Carolina location.

• Always confirm the grace period policy on your rental agreement at pickup
• If you know you will be late, contact the rental company directly using the number on your rental agreement as early as possible
• Extending your South Carolina SUV rental in advance is a better option than returning late without notice

For after-hours returns at South Carolina airports such as Charleston International (CHS), key drop boxes are available at many brand locations. Even with an after-hours drop, the rental agreement closes at the time the vehicle is checked in by staff, so any delay beyond your contracted return time may still generate charges.

Keep your rental agreement and any receipts from the return, and review your card statement in the days following the return of your South Carolina SUV for any post-rental charges.
