How It Works

A Simple Rental Process

Renting a Vehicle Should Be Simple

At TMO Car Rentals, we make it easier to get access to a dependable vehicle without a complicated rental process. Whether you need a car for everyday transportation, work, delivery driving, or an extended rental period, we’ll guide you through each step—from checking availability to returning the vehicle.

TMO Car Rentals Process

Get on the Road in a Few Simple Steps

Before You Submit Your Request

1. Gather Your Required Documents

1

Before beginning the Rental Request Form, make sure you have clear copies or photos of the required documents saved on your phone, tablet, or computer. You will be asked to upload these documents while completing the form.

Please have the following ready:

  • A clear copy of the front and back of your valid driver’s license
  • A recent photo or selfie for identity verification
  • Proof of your current residential address, such as a utility bill
  • A screenshot of your rideshare, delivery, courier, or gig-platform profile, if applicable


If you would like your own automobile or non-owner insurance reviewed:
A clear copy of your current insurance declarations pages. You may provide these with your Rental Request or when requested before your rental is finalized.

Your declaration pages should show your name, insurance company, policy number, effective dates, and coverage information. An insurance identification card alone may not provide enough information to verify coverage.

Please make sure all uploaded images are clear, current, complete, and easy to read. Having your documents ready will make the form easier to complete and help prevent delays.

Start Your Rental Request

2. Submit Your Rental Request

2

Complete our online Rental Request Form and upload the requested documents directly through the form.

Provide your contact information, requested rental start date, anticipated rental period, intended vehicle use, and other information needed to evaluate your request. Please provide complete and accurate information so our team can properly review your rental needs.

Submitting a rental request does not guarantee or reserve a particular vehicle.

Rental Request Review

3. Allow Us to Review Your Request

3

Our team will review your Rental Request Form and the documents you provided. Most requests are initially reviewed within one business day, but please allow up to two business days during periods of high demand.

We will contact you if information is missing or if additional documentation or clarification is needed. Once the review is complete, we will let you know whether we can move forward with your request and explain the next steps.

Moving forward with a rental request depends on identity verification, driver eligibility, intended vehicle use, satisfaction of TMO Car Rentals’ rental requirements, and vehicle availability.

Rental Terms and Agreement

4. Review and Sign Your Rental Agreement

4

If we can accommodate your rental request and a suitable vehicle is available, we will send you a rental agreement.

The agreement will explain the rental rate, payment schedule, refundable security deposit, authorized vehicle use, mileage terms, insurance provisions, maintenance responsibilities, extension procedures, return conditions, and responsibility for tolls, tickets, and other rental-related charges.

Please review the agreement carefully, ask any questions you may have, and sign it before the stated deadline.

You will not be asked to make a payment until a vehicle has been identified and you have received the rental agreement. A vehicle is not reserved until the agreement is signed, the refundable security deposit is paid, and all other required reservation steps are completed.

Secure Your Rental

5. Secure Your Vehicle and Make Your Payment

5

After signing your rental agreement, you will be asked to pay the $250 refundable security deposit to secure the vehicle.

The security deposit may be applied to unpaid rental charges, fuel shortages, excessive cleaning, damage, missing property, tolls, parking citations, or other amounts permitted under the rental agreement. Any remaining refundable balance will be returned after the vehicle is returned and the rental account is reviewed.

Your first rental payment and any other amount due at the beginning of the rental must be paid before the vehicle is released. 

We will confirm the total amount due, accepted payment methods, recurring payment schedule, and future payment due dates before your rental begins.

A vehicle is not officially secured until TMO Car Rentals receives the required refundable security deposit and sends you a reservation confirmation. All required payments must successfully clear before the vehicle can be released.

Vehicle Pickup

6. Pick Up Your Vehicle

6

After your rental agreement is signed and all required payments have cleared, we will coordinate the date, time, and location for vehicle pickup.

The refundable security deposit, first rental payment, and any other amount due must be paid electronically before your scheduled pickup appointment. Payments will not be accepted at the pickup location. The vehicle and keys cannot be released until all required payments have cleared.

At pickup, we will:

  • Verify your identity and inspect your original driver’s license
  • Confirm that the information matches your rental records
  • Complete a vehicle-condition inspection
  • Record the vehicle’s mileage and fuel level
  • Provide the vehicle information and keys


Once all pickup requirements are complete, you’ll receive the keys and be ready to get on the road.

If you have questions about maintenance, roadside assistance, or emergency procedures during your rental, please contact the TMO Car Rentals office for assistance.

During Your Rental

7. Drive and Stay in Good Standing

7

During your rental, operate the vehicle safely, keep your payments current, and follow the terms of your rental agreement.  You are expected to:

  • Operate the vehicle safely and legally
  • Keep the vehicle clean and properly secured
  • Monitor warning lights and promptly report mechanical concerns
  • Follow the mileage and vehicle-use terms in your rental agreement
  • Notify us immediately of an accident, breakdown, damage, theft, or other emergency
  • Contact us before the return date if you want to request an extension


Rental extensions are not automatic. Extension requests must be submitted and confirmed in advance. Whether an extension can be granted depends on your account status, required payment, vehicle scheduling, and availability.

Vehicle Return

8. Return the Vehicle

8

Return the vehicle on the confirmed date, at the agreed location, and in the condition required by your rental agreement.

When the vehicle is returned, we will complete a final inspection and record its mileage, fuel level, cleanliness, and overall condition.

Additional charges may apply for late returns, excessive cleaning, damage, unpaid tolls, tickets, or other amounts permitted under the rental agreement.
