No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your Hertz booking in Maryland 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 Maryland 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 Baltimore/Washington International Airport in Maryland is located at the consolidated car rental facility at 7416 New Ridge Road, just yards from the main terminal.

To reach the Hertz facility, exit the baggage claim area through exit door B and board the free Hertz shuttle bus. Shuttles run every 10 minutes, so you should not have to wait long after collecting your bags.

The Hertz counter at this Maryland location operates daily from 06:00 to 23:59, which accommodates most flight arrivals including late-night ones. When returning your vehicle, follow signage to the Car Rental Return parking area, park in the Hertz designated lot, return your keys and rental contract at the counter, and then board the shuttle back to the terminal.

To pick up a Hertz rental car in Maryland, 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, for the security deposit hold
• A valid passport or government-issued photo ID
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets (required for visitors traveling 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 alongside your original license at the Hertz counter in Maryland. For licenses in English or using a Roman alphabet, an IDP is recommended but not strictly required.

All documents must be physical originals. Digital copies shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted by Hertz at any Maryland location.

Yes, Maryland has several toll roads that Hertz customers are likely to encounter, especially near the BWI Airport area and on major interstate routes.

Key tolled facilities in Maryland include:

• Fort McHenry Tunnel (I-95): US$3 to US$6 for standard vehicles
• Baltimore Harbor Thruway Tunnel (I-895): US$3 to US$6
• Governor Harry W. Nice Memorial Bridge (US-301): US$4.50 to US$9
• John F. Kennedy Memorial Highway (I-95): US$6 to US$12
• William Preston Lane Jr. Memorial (Bay) Bridge: US$2.50 with E-ZPass
• Intercounty Connector (MD 200): US$0.07 to US$0.35 per mile

Maryland toll roads are primarily cashless. Payment is handled through E-ZPass transponders or Pay-by-Plate, where a camera captures your license plate and an invoice is mailed to you. Pay-by-Plate is more expensive and includes administrative fees.

Your Hertz vehicle in Maryland will include an electronic toll device. At the counter, you can choose to enroll in Hertz's toll program for a daily convenience fee, or pay tolls on a per-use basis. If you drive through a toll without enrolling, Hertz will charge the toll amount plus processing fees to your credit card after the rental ends.

Yes, all bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include Tolls Cashback, which lets you recover up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your Hertz rental in Maryland.

Given that Maryland has several cashless toll roads, including the Fort McHenry Tunnel on I-95 and the Bay Bridge, this benefit can add up meaningfully over a multi-day rental.

To claim your cashback after returning your Hertz vehicle in Maryland:

• 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 Hertz rental agreement signed at pick-up, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid

The refund is calculated as the lesser of the actual tolls paid or 5% of your booking total. For example, if your booking total is US$500, the maximum cashback is US$25. Refunds are issued to the original payment method and typically process within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Claims submitted after 30 days are not accepted.

When picking up a Hertz rental car in Maryland, the counter will place a temporary authorization hold on your credit card as a security deposit. For standard vehicles at Hertz locations in the United States, this hold is typically around US$300 to US$400, though the exact amount can vary by vehicle class, location, and season.

A few important points to keep in mind:

• The hold must be placed on a major credit card with the driver's name physically printed on the card. Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted for the deposit at Hertz in Maryland
• The hold reduces your available credit until it is released after you return the vehicle
• Your bank controls when the hold disappears from your statement, which can take up to 15 business days after the rental ends
• Premium or specialty vehicle classes may require a higher hold amount

Before arriving at the Hertz counter in Maryland, notify your bank of your travel plans to prevent the authorization from being flagged as suspicious. Bringing a backup credit card is also a good precaution.

The standard minimum age to rent a car with Hertz in Maryland without additional surcharges is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent but will be charged a daily young-renter surcharge on top of the base rental rate.

Hertz applies an Age Differential Charge to drivers aged 21 to 24 at Maryland locations. The surcharge is approximately US$13.50 per rental day, and certain vehicle classes are restricted to renters aged 25 and older, including full-size SUVs, minivans, luxury, premium, and convertible categories.

Additional requirements that apply regardless of age:

• A valid driver's license in good standing
• A major credit card in the main driver's name for the security deposit hold
• An International Driving Permit if the license uses a non-Latin alphabet

Corporate or membership agreements with Hertz may waive the young-driver surcharge in Maryland when a valid corporate ID is presented at the counter. If you are between 21 and 24, confirm eligibility before booking and Budget for the daily surcharge if it applies.

If you drive through a cashless toll road in Maryland during your Hertz rental without enrolling in a toll program, a camera will capture the vehicle's license plate and an invoice will be mailed to the registered owner, which in this case is Hertz.

Hertz will then pass the toll charge along to you, typically adding an administrative or processing fee on top of the original toll amount. These charges are often billed to your credit card days or even weeks after the rental has ended, so it is normal to see a post-rental charge appear on your statement.

If you fail to pay a Maryland toll invoice by the due date, the state can issue a civil penalty and may suspend the vehicle registration. This creates complications for Hertz that are ultimately passed back to the renter.

To avoid unexpected charges on your Hertz rental in Maryland, consider enrolling in the toll program at the counter or using a third-party service like NextPass by adding the rental vehicle's plate number before driving on tolled roads. Keep all toll receipts, as they may be needed to claim your Tolls Cashback through Hola Car Rentals after the rental ends.

Yes, most bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection, which can be valuable if an incident occurs during your Hertz rental in Maryland, for example on a highway like I-95 or while crossing the Bay Bridge.

Core benefits typically included are:

• 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

To reach the assistance line 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, call +1 888 980 9992 (toll-free) or contact via WhatsApp at +1 208 910 1001. Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call.

Important: this travel assistance benefit applies only to non-North American customers. Residents of the United States and Canada do not qualify for this coverage. For roadside assistance specific to your Hertz vehicle in Maryland, use the number provided on your Hertz rental agreement.

Hertz uses a Full-to-Full fuel policy at Maryland locations. This means you receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.

Steps to follow for a smooth fuel return at any Hertz location in Maryland:

• At pick-up, 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 Hertz return location before dropping off the car
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address

If you return the Hertz vehicle in Maryland with less than a full tank, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at the partner's refueling rate, which is typically higher than the retail pump price, plus a refueling service fee.

Some Hertz counters in Maryland may offer a Prepaid Fuel option at pick-up. If you accept it, any unused fuel is generally non-refundable, so the Full-to-Full approach is usually the better value for most renters.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Hertz rental in Maryland, but the person must be present at the counter at pick-up with a valid driver's license to sign the rental agreement.

When the additional driver fee is not included in your rate, Hertz charges approximately US$13.50 per rental day for each extra driver in Maryland, with a maximum cap of US$189 plus applicable taxes. Check your booking confirmation to see whether an additional driver is already included in your rate.

Requirements for adding a driver at the Hertz counter in Maryland:

• The additional driver must be physically present at pick-up
• They must present a valid driver's license, and an IDP if their license uses a non-Latin alphabet
• They must meet the minimum age requirement; drivers aged 21 to 24 may be subject to a young-driver surcharge
• Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement

Only drivers listed on the Hertz rental agreement in Maryland are covered by the vehicle's protections, including CDW/LDW and liability coverage. Anyone who drives without being named on the contract may void those protections.

No, Maryland does not have congestion charges, emissions zones, or city-center driving fees of the kind found in cities like London. Hertz renters driving in Maryland, including in Baltimore and the BWI Airport corridor, will not encounter any zone-based entry fees or low-emission zone penalties.

The main road costs you will face as a Hertz renter in Maryland are standard tolls on specific highways and bridges. Maryland toll roads are primarily cashless and use E-ZPass or Pay-by-Plate systems. There are no additional surcharges for driving into downtown Baltimore or any other Maryland city center.

This makes Maryland relatively straightforward for renters compared to some other destinations. Your main financial consideration beyond the base Hertz rental rate will be tolls on routes such as I-95 through the Fort McHenry Tunnel or the Bay Bridge on US-50, depending on where you plan to drive during your Maryland trip.

Yes, one-way rentals are generally available with Hertz in Maryland, allowing you to pick up at a Maryland location such as BWI Airport and return the vehicle in a different state. However, a drop-off fee may apply depending on the route, distance, and vehicle class.

Key things to know about one-way Hertz rentals from Maryland:

• The drop-off fee is route-specific and varies by destination, season, and vehicle category
• The fee is listed under the To Pay at Destination section during the booking process and on your confirmation
• The fee cannot be prepaid and is paid directly at the Hertz counter
• Cross-border rentals, such as driving into Canada, may be restricted or require advance authorization from Hertz

If you need to change your drop-off location after booking, contact support as soon as possible, since mid-rental route changes must be approved by the partner and may increase the fee or affect availability. Always verify the one-way terms on your confirmation before picking up your Hertz vehicle in Maryland.

When renting with Hertz in Maryland, you have access to several insurance and protection options that cover different risks during your rental.

The main coverages to consider are:

• Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW): reduces your financial liability for damage to the Hertz vehicle from a collision, theft, or vandalism. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation shows zero excess
• Third-Party Liability (LIS/ALI/SLI): covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to other people or vehicles while driving in Maryland. Some U.S. states require a minimum level of liability, but not all do, so adding supplemental liability is strongly recommended

CDW/LDW does not cover third-party liability, and LIS/ALI/SLI does not cover damage to the Hertz vehicle itself. These two coverages work together and are typically both needed for full protection.

Common exclusions to be aware of at any Hertz location in Maryland include damage from prohibited use such as off-road driving, incidents involving unlisted drivers, and items like tires, undercarriage, or keys, which may not be covered unless a specific add-on is purchased.

Review your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation to confirm which protections are included in your selected rate before arriving at the Hertz counter in Maryland.
