2024 Flex Rates
Valid from 01 January to 31 December 2024


Flex Rates allows us to offer flexible pricing, which gives you the opportunity to secure the best possible rental rate. The Flex Rates are based on a very simple system of supply and demand. So when there are a large number of vehicles available for hire from a particular branch then the rental rate is lower.

This way you can benefit from the lower rates offered. Generally, this means that the earlier you book the cheaper the rate! There will also be great Standby Rates!

Pick up and Drop Off Times:
Please use these times as a guide only, as they may change slightly between depots.

Pick Up - Tuesday to Friday: 3pm to 5pm (Sat 1pm to 2pm)
Drop Off - Tuesday to Saturday: 08.30am to 10am

Late & Early Drop Offs:

If the vehicle is returned after the time that was agreed in writing, we charge CHF 38 for every extra hour or part of an hour (but not more than the total daily rate for every day late) and pass on any claims for compensation for damages that may be asserted by the next renter or another person due to a late receipt of the vehicle.

If the vehicle is returned before the expiration of the agreed rental period - there is no refund for unused days unless the vehicle can be rented to another party.

Festivals:
Please note that it is not generally allowed to travel to festivals with our rental vehicles.
Participation in festivals and other events is only permitted with the express consent of the Rental Company.

Drivers Age / Licence:
Minimum age is 21 years (Premium Groups - minimum age is 25 years) Licence must be valid for at least one year (3 years for vehicles over 3.5 tonnes) before rental (Family Luxury & Premium Groups 3 years). No maximum age.

For some vehicles you are required to hold a licence that allows you to drive a vehicle over 3.5 tonnes. Please check vehicle weight and your licence.

Additional Drivers:
No Fee. Maximum of 2 drivers per vehicle.

Vehicle Age:
All vehicles are less than 3 years old.

Parking at Depot:
Car Parking may be available on request. Please enquire with us for more details.

Security deposit / Refundable bond:
The security deposit of CHF 1,500 must be paid at the start of a rental.
Refunded if the vehicle is returned in a proper condition and after the final settlement of the rental contract by McRent HQ.

Liability and Comprehensive Insurance Protection:
The renter bears the costs of any damage that occurs during the rental period while using the vehicle in accordance with the contract up to CHF 1,500 per damage.

If the damage is caused by intent or gross negligence, especially if the renter was unable to drive due to the consumption of drugs or alcohol, the liability limitation does not apply. The same applies to any damage caused by not observing traffic sign 265 (maximum vehicle height on a road). Despite the agreed limitation of liability, the renter is moreover fully liable for any damage caused by failure to observe the vehicle dimensions (vehicle height and width), by improper loading and unloading and by the load or by driving backwards without being directed.

The renter is liable for any damages claimed by a third party against him/her or against McRent that the renter has caused to a third party during the use of the object of rental. The renter is liable for all fees, levies, fines, and punishments that are imposed on the lessor in connection with the use of the vehicle unless they are caused by fault of the lessor.

Vehicle Return:
Vehicle must be returned clean or a cleaning fee of CHF 150 will apply. If toilet is not emptied a fee of CHF 217 will apply

Authorised Drivers:
The vehicle may only be driven by the renter himself/herself and by the drivers specified in the rental contract.

Substitute Vehicle:
In case the reserved vehicle cannot be made available at the rental station, the lessor reserves the right to provide a vehicle that is comparable in size and equipment or bigger. That will not cause any additional rental costs for the renter. If a smaller vehicle is offered and accepted by the renter, the price difference of both vehicles is reimbursed. If the provision of a bigger vehicle causes higher ancillary costs, such as ferry charges and tolls or operating costs, such costs are to be borne by the renter.

Trips Abroad:
It is possible to make trips abroad within Europe. Any trips to East European countries are subject to the lessor's prior approval. Trips to any war and unstable zones are forbidden.
