Security Deposit:
The deductible amount for the fully and partially comprehensive insurance is € 1,500 per incident. Clients can purchase additional insurances to reduce the self liability from third-party insurances. But our insurance partner ERGO can only sell insurances to residents of the EU. Any additional insurance will not reduce the security deposit.

There is an additional security deposit of € 1,200 if the renter plans to visit one of the European festivals like Wacken, Rock am Ring, Ozora or similar. If the vehicle is returned in clean and proper condition, also this additional security deposit can be refunded.

The amount will be just reserved and the reservation is cancelled automatically after 30 days. In case of long time rentals (from 22 days on) the deposit will be charged from the card.

DRM cannot stand for changes in exchange rates during the rental or fees from the credit card company. Please note American Express / Diners credit cards are not accepted.

Damage costs will be charged from the security deposit. If the security deposit was really charged from the credit card, it will be refunded to client's credit card account by the DRM head office. This process can take up to 10-14 working days for organizational reasons.
