Can the car be delivered in Bielefeld?

How much does it cost to rent a car by the hour in Bielefeld?
You can see the price for 8 hours in the hourly price tile of every vehicle. For comparison: daily rates around Bielefeld currently start at €279. Extra kilometres, extras or a protection package may be added. You'll see everything before you send your request.
How long is an hourly rental?
On Rentlo, the hourly rate covers 8 hours from the agreed pick-up time. If you need the vehicle for longer, a daily rental is usually the better choice. Time blocks shorter than 8 hours are not shown as a separate price in the app.
What happens if I return the car late?
The rental company may then charge extra: depending on the terms, a surcharge per hour or the daily rate. Let them know early if you realise you won't make it. Sometimes the rental can be extended if the vehicle isn't booked straight afterwards.
Can I rent a van by the hour?
Yes. Vans in particular are often needed for just a few hours, for example to buy furniture or for a small move. The price tiles show whether a vehicle has an hourly rate. With a category B licence, you can drive vans up to 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight.
Do I need to pay a deposit for an hourly rental?
Usually yes, as the deposit depends on the vehicle, not the rental period. Depending on the offer, you pay it online or at pick-up, or rent without a deposit where the rental company offers this. It is released again after the return.
How many kilometres are included in 8 hours?
Each rental company sets this itself; the included mileage is shown in the offer. For trips within Bielefeld, it is usually enough. If you're planning a longer journey, compare the price per extra kilometre or choose a daily rental straight away.
What is Rentlo?
Rentlo is a marketplace for all kinds of rental vehicles in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. You rent directly from verified local rental companies.

Guide
Stick to the return time
With short rentals, every quarter of an hour counts. Allow a buffer for traffic, finding a parking space and refuelling before the return. If you're late, you'll pay a surcharge or the full daily rate, depending on the rental company. If you notice on the way that time is getting tight, call the rental company in advance.
Mileage and fuel on short rentals
Included mileage is limited on hourly rentals too, and how many kilometres are included is shown in the offer. For a drive around Bielefeld, that's usually enough; for a trip into the surrounding area, check the price per extra kilometre. Also clarify the fuel policy: you often return the car with the same fuel level as at pick-up.
Which vehicles are suitable?
Hourly rentals are mostly vans and small vans for furniture, bulky waste or moving boxes. With a standard category B licence, you can drive vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes, which covers most vans. Estate cars for a big shop or special cars for a photo shoot are popular too. Deposit and minimum age apply just as with any other rental.
