Does the cost of the rental include fuel?

Budget’s rates do not include the cost of fuel but we do offer three refueling options:

Back

  • Fuel Service Option- Pay in advance for a full tank of fuel when you pick up the rental and bring the car back empty. Our rates for this option are comparable to the current local retail pump price. You should bring the vehicle back as close to empty as possible because no credit is given for unused fuel.

  • Self Refueling- If you are not sure how far you will be driving, but plan to stop for gas, do so within 5 miles of returning location, bring the car back full and provide a receipt for your gas purchase. You will avoid a refueling service.

  • Refueling Service- Simply return the car with less fuel in the tank than when you picked it up, and pay a service charge for the fuel.
