Our locations use a centralized computerized reservation and rental system to manage bookings, pricing, and customer service. We also offer related products and services tied to the rental experience, including loss damage waivers, optional insurance, refueling, child seats, navigation devices, portable radios, and tire chains where authorized. We serve both business and leisure customers, including corporate accounts that receive special rates and benefits based on rental volume. Our business is run through retail rental locations that follow uniform operating methods across the Avis system.
