FAQ

The car is rented with a full tank of fuel and must be returned in that condition. An exception to this is if you have purchased the "Final refuelling" package. Then you are exempt from the obligation to return the car with a full tank.

The total cost of rental is influenced by several components:

• The car fee, which depends on the selected vehicle class

and, depending on selected extras, there may be:

• Fee for selected additional options (such as: additional security, additional driver, travel abroad or child seat)
• Pick-up/pick-up service for the vehicle at a given address
• Fee for vehicle pick-up/ drop-off outside regular working hours.
• Preparation fee

A deposit is required upon collection of the vehicle, the amount of which depends on the selected vehicle class. The deposit is a temporary blockade of funds on the card for future payments, and is unblocked immediately after the end of the rental.

When picking up the vehicle, we will ask you to show us:

• An identity document (e.g.: ID card, passport),
• A valid driver's license (it is required that the driver's license is presented by each person who will be driving the vehicle),
• Credit or payment card with the possibility to block the deposit on the card.

The advantage of renting by the month is that you can extend your rental very quickly. All you have to do is contact your caregiver or any Kaizen representative and set the terms of the extension. You can also send an e-mail to [email protected]. You can forward your rental extension request to us at any time, but we ask that it be at least 24 hours before the scheduled end of your rental.

The basic category we use when renting for months is the class of car e.g. B, C, D, SUV etc. Each class is characterized by some common features like size, type of transmission, standard of equipment. However, individual cars within a given class may differ in brand, color, or equipment details. Therefore, our representative serves his knowledge and assistance in selecting the best class of car to your needs. The advantage is that you can drive different classes, depending on the situation and your current requirements.

Deposits are returned within 14 working days, provided there is no damage to the vehicle. The deposit is returned to the account from which it was paid. In case of returning a damaged vehicle, the deposit remains blocked until the damage is settled, unless the Lessor settles the charge earlier.

All formalities are carried out electronically. First, we confirm the date, time and place of car collection by phone or e-mail.

As a rule, the car should be in the same condition in which it was delivered at the time of return. In practice, this means that the car should be fully fueled, clean and undamaged.
