Frequently Asked Questions

At Community Rental Car, we are upfront and honest about our pricing and rental fees. You will have the opportunity to review your rental agreement and ask about any charges included before you sign. If you are not sure about a specific charge or have questions about the language used in our rental agreement, feel free to ask questions at the counter. Our friendly and knowledgeable representatives will be happy to help. A few of the costs to consider are as follows:

• Taxes — In addition to the daily rental rate and the potential additional charges mentioned above, taxes are also charged.
• Fuel Charge — A fuel charge is the cost added to your bill for gasoline used that was in the car at the time you picked up your rental. For example, if you pick up your rental with a full tank of gas and return it empty, the cost for refueling the vehicle will be added to your total. However, if you refill the tank before returning it, then a fuel charge will not be added.
• Toll Roads — Toll roads mean extra costs for car renters. North Carolina only has a few toll roads — they are “cashless”, so car renters can’t pay at the tollbooth. The cost for toll-road usage will instead have to be paid to Community Rental Car. Check your planned route to see if you will encounter any tolls so you know what to expect.

Yes. Unlike many of our competitors, Community Rental Car also offers cash-only rentals. We pride ourselves in offering this opportunity because we understand that life can provide situations that are unexpected. No matter what your level of credit, you should be able to rent a vehicle when you find yourself in need of one. If you are interested in renting a car using cash, please contact us for specific prices and policies.

Debit cards or ‘check cards’ are also accepted by Community Rental Car. A deposit will be taken from the checking account linked to the card presented at the time of rental. The deposit will be refunded once the vehicle you rented has been returned, the rental amount has been paid in full, and the vehicle has been checked in and processed.

Though many rental companies require renters to be at least 25 years of age, Community Rental Car will still allow a younger individual to rent a car. A young-driver charge may be required for younger, less-experienced drivers because they are considered “high-risk” drivers. Please ask our team members for further details.

Yes, we charge an additional $25/day for an additional driver. Failure to sign up an additional driver (that falls outside of our exemptions) can be a violation of your rental agreement and may void your insurance protection.

Yes! No need to be reliant on friends, family, public transportation, or ride sharing companies. We provide reliable and cheap weekly and monthly long-term car rentals to the Winston-Salem, NC, area.
