Collision Damage Waiver is an optional* service which, if accepted, reduces your financial liability for damage to the Hertz vehicle, its parts and accessories, except for theft, attempted theft or vandalism, provided the vehicle is used in accordance with the terms and conditions of the rental agreement.
* CDW is included as standard in most retail rates and in most contract or preferential rates.
If CDW is declined, you will be responsible for the amount of the deductible - see table below.
Regardless of whether CDW is accepted or included, all rentals are subject to a non-waivable excess for which you are responsible in the event of damage to the Hertz vehicle during the rental - see table below.

You can further eliminate your excess liability - Please refer to "Super Cover (Excess Waiver)".
If you decide not to purchase CDW, you may be required to provide a security deposit in the amount of EUR 5,000.00 at the start of the rental using your credit card. This does not apply to contract rates and/or Hertz Gold Plus Rewards customers. If this amount is not available on your credit card, you will have to purchase Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), or you may be refused a vehicle.
If you have purchased CDW or it is included in your rate you may be required to leave a security deposit to cover the Damage Excess for the specific car group, fuel and any additional rental costs. This is a pre-authorisation only and not a charge to your credit card. There must however be sufficient funds to cover the authorised amounts.
If you book a rate that excludes our insurance and do not take the insurance products available at time of rental we will require a copy of your insurance policy and/or documentation from your credit card company stating clearly that coverage is provided in Ireland. A €30 non-refundable administration fee is applicable for verification of coverage at the counter and subsequent processing.
We strongly recommend that you fully understand the terms and conditions of any cover provided by your credit card company including your personal liability level and any impact on your private insurance before you decline any of our optional services.
