Auto Loans in Columbia
CarmaCars is a rental company; renting a car first is how we help buyers. We do not check credit for loans or lend money; renting needs a licence, an identity check and a card. If credit is the obstacle, a monthly rental is one way to have a car while you sort it out; renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check.
Drive it like you own it
Rent for a weekend to answer the big question: is this the right car? If we have the model in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A week of your own driving tells you more than twenty minutes with a salesperson: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
Before you sign
A Safety Standards Certificate is needed in Ontario to register a used car you buy. Ask how many owners the car has had and how it was used. Check the tires and brakes: replacing them adds to the real price. Look for rust under the doors and around the wheel arches.
A car meanwhile
There is no long contract: each booking runs up to 365 days and can be renewed. Waiting for a car on order? A monthly rental covers the wait, up to 365 days a booking. Between selling and buying, a weekly rental keeps the commute normal.
Where we deliver
CarmaCars works from Toronto and delivers across the Toronto area; for Columbia, pick the car up in Toronto. Columbia lies about 1,516 km from our location in Toronto, well outside our delivery area of about 250 km.

What you need to rent in Columbia

Licence: an Ontario G2 and G licence, valid for the whole rental. A licence from another province or country, an international one with its permit included, is accepted on a request and checked by a person before we confirm.
An additional driver costs 25% of the daily rate for each day, and meets the same rules.
Third-party liability coverage is included in every rate. For damage to the car you need one of these before pickup: OPCF 27 on your own auto policy, Your credit card’s rental coverage and The CarmaCars Protection Plan. A claim on our fleet policy costs you the $2,500 deductible.
The deposit is a hold on your card, $500 to $5,000 depending on the car, never a charge.
At pickup, bring your original licence and the card you paid with.
Book at least 2 hours before pickup, for delivery to Columbia or pickup in Toronto.
