Security deposit
A security deposit of $1,000–$3,000 is required, depending on the selected vehicle. It may be paid in cash or collected or held on a credit card. The deposit may be applied to vehicle damage; if repair costs exceed the deposit, the renter is responsible for the remaining balance.
For rentals longer than six days, a credit-card preauthorization may be collected and refunded after the return inspection. ElloLux states that inspection is completed within 24 hours after return; the deposit or hold is then released when the vehicle passes inspection.
