What to bring to your vehicle pickup

Sep 11, 2026 · Alex Morgan · Renting tips

Your driver's license

Bring the physical license you used for online verification. Temporary paper licenses need a photo ID alongside them.

The card for the deposit

The security deposit is an authorization hold, not a charge, and it has to be placed on a card in the primary renter's name.

Your phone

Your confirmation, agreement and pickup photos live in your account. Having your phone handy makes the condition walk-around quick.

Before you leave

Check the fuel or charge level against what is recorded, take your own photos, and confirm the return time on the agreement.
