What if the car rental location is closed when I need to pick up/drop off?

If you are picking up or returning your car at the times you selected when you booked your car rental on Hotwire, the rental location should be open. Hotwire search results will not offer cars from locations that are not open during your preferred pick-up and drop-off times.

For Hotwire Hot Rates, the hours of operation are only shown on the confirmation page. If you're running late, we suggest you call the rental agency before it closes.
