Employees are encouraged to "shop around"
since strong competition in the rental car market usually brings
short duration sales in some local markets. Other programs (i.e.
Travel & Transport, AAA or AARP discount programs) may provide
cheaper rates than using the University's established discount programs.
Renting a Car in Nebraska & Surrounding States
If renting a car in Nebraska and the surrounding states, employees
are encouraged to contact UNL's Tansportation Services to see if
our local rates will be accepted by Rent-A-Car franchises. We have
had success in getting our local rates accepted outside Lincoln,
but since Enterprise is a regionally owned business, it may be an
option for regional rentals only. It may be worth a try since our
local rates through Transportation Services are very competitive.
Auto Insurance Coverage on Rental Cars
Regarding auto insurance on rental vehicles, the rule is simple:
Decline all insurance coverage except for Liability Coverage. UNL
will only reimburse the cost for liability coverage. When traveling
under University business, the University's auto insurance covers
rental cars.
Rates offered from the below providers will only apply if you identify yourself as an E&I Coop member and mention the E&I Coop discount ID#.
