Can I Get a Collision Damage Waiver For a Short Period of Time?

I only plan on renting a car for 2 days to drive from Portland, Maine to Gettysburg, PA to pick up my daughter at school. Can I get the Collision Damage Waiver from you for that short a period of time? Bob

Hi Bob,

Yes, you can get the Collision Damage Waiver for just 2 days. In case you didn’t see this, the Collision Damage Waiver covers you for calendar days and not 24 hour rental periods.

For example, if you pick the car up on a Saturday and return it Monday this counts for 3 coverage days making the policy $30 ($9 per day times 3 days).

And, even though you clearly said you’re getting a car, I just want you to be aware that in case you meant “car” as a generic term, this Collision Damage Waiver doesn’t cover trucks, not SUVs, passenger vans, nor 4 wheel drive vehicles.

I hope this makes sense. If you want the right travel insurance advice, call us at 1-888-407-3854 and we'll help you figure it all out.
