Renting for Simplot

Neighbouring areas include Weitz, Enrose and Caldwell.

What the specs mean

Under the hood: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo and front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 24 litres, from its 7.9 L/100 km rating. A 300 km weekend costs about $41.49 in energy at our price setting.

Inside and out

Being a compact car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. NHTSA's Canadian figures put it at 4.76 m long. Check the size of a tight parking spot. Luggage space is 368 litres, enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Best uses

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.

Booking, step by step

A request is free and takes a few minutes: the car, your dates, and pickup or delivery. Our offer spells out the rate, the delivery fee if any, and the deposit. If the offer works for you, approve and pay to confirm. If not, you owe nothing.

You can check any car's calendar before you send a request. A rental of 7 days or longer is priced at the weekly rate. Short notice is fine: 2 hours is the minimum before a pickup.

What we check

An Ontario G2 or G licence and an age of 18 or more: that is where it starts. Drivers under 26 pay a young driver fee for each day, shown on each car's page. The card you pay with must be yours, and you bring it to the handover.

Choose before pickup how damage to the car is handled: your policy with OPCF 27, your card's rental benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Each car's deposit is listed on its page, so you know it before you ask. Each driver named on the booking signs the rental agreement.
