Smoking Policy FAQs

Can I smoke in a rental vehicle?

No, smoking is not allowed in our rental vehicles. We maintain a fleet of 100 percent smoke-free vehicles in the US. We have a non-smoking policy to ensure that all our customers drive in comfortable, clean vehicles. A cleaning fee of up to $450 may be applied to the rental cost, should this non-smoking policy be violated.

Why do you have a smoke-free vehicle policy?

Smoke leaves a residue on fabrics, fibers & surfaces of vehicles and emits odors that many find unpleasant. This policy is designed to ensure we are enhancing the comfort of our customers.

When a vehicle must be cleaned of smoke odor and residue, all surfaces must be treated and cleaned. This takes a considerable amount of time and requires the vehicle to be removed from the rental fleet until it is odor-free. The cleaning fee of up to $450 for vehicles with evidence of smoking is intended to help cover the cleaning costs and the lost revenue from a vehicle being temporarily unavailable for rental.

What can customers do to ensure that they will not be charged a cleaning fee?

To avoid a cleaning fee, do not smoke or vape inside or near your rental vehicle.
