Renting it
There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Put this car and your dates in a request, and we reply with an offer. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Booking made plain
Requests come first at CarmaCars. You name the car and the dates, and we take it from there. An offer follows, with the car we confirm and the full price for your dates. Offers stay open for 24 hours. Approve one and pay to book the car.
You can see every car's calendar and rates before you send anything. From one day to 365, a single booking covers it. At least 2 hours must separate the request from the pickup.
What to have ready
You need to be 18 or older at pickup, with an Ontario G2 or G licence valid for the whole rental. We accept young drivers; those under 26 pay a daily fee. The card must be in the driver's name, and we check it with the licence in person.
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. The deposit is taken shortly before pickup, and the balance comes back after the return. We confirm each driver's licence and identity the same way.
