What you need to know for the road

How do I find the best rates on a Pittsburgh Avis rental car?

We strive to get you the lowest rates, no matter when you reserve your car. But reserving ahead of time can help keep spending low. Make sure to go over the mileage policy and keeping it to one driver will reduce your expense.

Do I need to bring anything special when I get my vehicle in Pittsburgh?

You will need to bring credit card, as well as your driver's license.

How old do I have to be to rent a car in Pittsburgh?

Avis's minimum age to rent a car in Pittsburgh is 21. Make sure to check Avis's policy, as there may be limitations if you are under 25 or for higher category vehicles especially.

What kind of Avis rental car should I get for my trip to Pittsburgh?

That all depends on your needs and what you'll be doing when you visit Pittsburgh. Compact or economy vehicles are easier to park and great for short commutes. If you are traveling with colleagues or family, then a sedan or SUV is going to have enough room for all of you and offer a more comfortable ride on longer drives. Those looking for a little extravagance on their Pittsburgh getaway can choose a higher-end model like a Cadillac or Audi or similar.

Does the United States require car insurance?

In the United States you do need to have insurance before you rent. Although many of the major card issuers, like Visa or American Express, give some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For instance, they may not cover your rental car if you book a luxury or larger vehicle. Make sure to check credit card company's policy before you decide. Additionally, as a United States citizen, you can purchase Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.

Does Avis require a deposit at the time of booking my rental car?

Avis requires a deposit when you book your rental. Avis will block the deposit on your credit once you reserve your rental for your trip. Please be aware that the deposit will vary greatly depending on the model and make of the car.

Do I have to full up the tank before I take my car back to Avis?

We recommend a full tank policy. You receive the car topped off. If you return your rental with less than the amount that you received it with, most companies will charge a premium, and sometimes up to 3X the amount of current gas prices to refill it. If you want to save some money, it is best to fill up your tank before you bring the car back to Avis.

Why should I get unlimited miles?

Pittsburgh has lots to keep you entertained, but you may want to drive to nearby cities to see what else Pennsylvania has to offer. You can explore the rest of the area free of mileage limits once you've had an evening out in Pittsburgh's downtown or spent a night out in Pittsburgh's downtown. If you want to add a dash adventure to your Pittsburgh trip, you can also go to Sandcastle and spend a day riding the park's attractions.

Does Pittsburgh Avis offer one-way car rentals?

Avis offers one-way rentals in most cases. You may find it easier to return your rental at a different location. Don't forget there is typically an additional charge when you pick one-way.
