I am the renter; are my family or friends allowed to use this car?: Additional drivers can be added to the agreement. They must be 25 years old, present, and have a valid driver’s license.
Will my regular car insurance cover a rental vehicle?: Yes. As is the typically the case with all automobile rental agreements, if you have comprehensive and liability insurance on your personal car, your existing policy will likely provide the same for a rental car within the United States.
Why do I have to present my auto insurance card when renting with Yellowstone Rent a Car?: As is the case typically with all automobile rentals in the United States your auto insurance is the primary insurance. Unlike the large franchises as a independent rent a car company we collect your insurance information up front as a best business practice in the event a damage claim needs to be made. This practice, while slightly inconvenient, helps insure our ability to provide the lowest fees to our customers.
If I delay the return of the vehicle, will you charge me?: Yes. The driver must return the car at the specified time noted in the agreement. Failure to abide with this condition shall result in additional charges. The fee is one full day to be charged at the prevailing rate in effect at the time of the scheduled return.
How quickly can I rent a car from you?: In just minutes. Book online, show up with your driver’s license and credit card.
When will you return my security deposit?: We refund the deposit upon return of the vehicle as long as there is no damage. Your bank may need 5 to 10 working days for the banking system to release the security deposit.
Can I smoke in the car?: No. All of our vehicles are smoke free. If our staff identifies the smell of smoke, you will be charged according to our agreement.
Do you provide baby/child car seats?: No. In the interest of health, hygiene and safety concerns, we do not provide car seats. Please bring your own.
Do you have ski racks?: Yes, we do, just let us know you need them.
Is there a mileage limit?: No. Unlimited mileage is included.
Can I take the rental car out of State?: Yes, you can. Just let us know your travel itinerary, and we will update our records.
