Hertz Reverts

Things are returning to normal, as some companies have begun to return to their old ways and drop their special practices adopted when oil prices went through the roof. I just hope that our memories have not been completely wiped and that we'll take something away from our summer of madness.

Hertz has discontinued the Flat Refueling Fee and is no longer basing the Fuel and Service Charge on local pump prices. This affects all North American corporate-owned Hertz locations

Hertz has reverted to our prior refueling options, effective December 1, 2008. This means the Flat Refueling Fee, and Fuel and Service Charges based on local pump prices, have been discontinued. All North American corporate-owned Hertz locations, including Airport, Hertz Local Edition® and Off-Airport locations in Canada are affected.

Hertz has three refueling options available to meet your needs:

• You may purchase a tank of gas from Hertz at time of rental and return the vehicle with as little gas as you prefer. Please be aware that we are unable to issue a refund for unused fuel. However, this method eliminates the need for you to refuel the tank prior to returning.
• You can let us refuel for you and only pay for the fuel required to replace the fuel you used, and for the service and convenience of refueling the tank.
• You can stop and refuel the tank yourself, immediately prior to returning the vehicle.
