Can I extend my rental?
Zuletzt aktualisiert am 16 September 2026
Yes, you can extend your rental if you need the car for longer. Contact Agtran as early as you can, before your scheduled return time, and we will arrange the extension if the car is available, with the additional cost confirmed to you. Arranging an extension in advance is always better than keeping the car past your return time without telling us.
Sometimes a trip runs longer than planned, or you simply want more time with the car. Extending your rental is usually straightforward, as long as you let us know in good time. Here is how it works.
Can I Extend My Rental?
Yes. If you find you need the car for longer than your original booking, you can ask to extend it. Extensions depend on the car being available for the additional dates, so the earlier you ask, the more likely we can arrange it. The additional cost for the extra time is confirmed to you before the extension is set, so you know what you are paying.
How Do I Extend My Rental?
To extend, contact Agtran directly:
- Get in touch as early as you can, before your scheduled return time
- Use the contact details in your booking confirmation
- Tell us your booking reference and the new return date and time you need
- We will check availability and confirm the additional cost
- Once confirmed, your rental is extended to the new return time
Contacting us early matters, because the car may be booked by someone else after your original return date. The sooner you ask, the better the chance we can keep the car with you.
What If I Ask at the Last Minute?
We will always try to help, but a last-minute extension is harder to guarantee, because the car may already be reserved for another customer after your return date. If you think there is any chance you will want more time, it is worth asking early rather than waiting until the day your rental ends. Do not simply keep the car past your return time without arranging an extension, as returning late without notice can cause problems and may involve additional charges.
How Much Does an Extension Cost?
An extension is charged for the additional rental time, and the cost is confirmed to you before it is arranged, so there are no surprises. The amount depends on the vehicle and the length of the extension. Because we confirm it in advance, you can decide whether to go ahead once you know the cost. Any deposit and insurance continue to apply across the extended period in the normal way.
Can I Shorten My Rental Instead?
If your plans change the other way and you need the car for less time, the arrangements are different. Your rental covers the full period you booked, and the car can be returned up to 2 hours before your scheduled return time but not earlier, so returning several days early is not available. For more on this, see our guide on returning the car early.
In short
- Yes, you can extend your rental if the car is available
- Contact us as early as you can, before your scheduled return time
- Give us your booking reference and the new return date and time
- The additional cost is confirmed before the extension is set
- Do not keep the car past your return time without arranging it first
If your plans change, the simplest step is always to contact us early. Giving notice makes an extension much easier to arrange. When you are ready to book, book your car online, and if you need to extend later, just get in touch.
