We provide short-term vehicle rentals without a driver for travelers and for customers who need a replacement vehicle because of insurance or mechanical repairs. Our business operates under the Dollar and Dollar Rent A Car brands and serves customers through rental locations that may be at airports or near hotels, offices, and major highways. We deliver a standardized rental experience with consistent operating methods, customer service, accounting, insurance programs, and vehicle presentation across locations. Our locations rent cars under the Dollar system and support both transient rentals and billed replacement rentals. We focus on making vehicles available through convenient rental counters and a coordinated rental process for customers who need reliable transportation for a limited time.
