Damage waiver (DW) for this branch ranges between $29.99 and $39.99 per day depending on the type of vehicle rented. DW is offered at the time of rental for an additional daily charge. If the renter accepts DW, Enterprise waives or reduces the renter's responsibility for loss of or damage to the rental vehicle, including but not limited to towing, storage, loss of use, administrative fees and/or diminishment of value subject to the terms and conditions of the rental agreement and applicable laws. DW is not insurance. The purchase of DW is optional and not required to rent a car. The protection provided by DW may duplicate the renter's existing coverage. Enterprise is not qualified to evaluate the adequacy of the renter's existing coverage, therefore the renter should examine their credit card protections, car insurance policies or other sources of coverage that may duplicate the protection provided by DW.
