Returning a vehicle

If you want to make changes to the length of your rental or how you pay for it, we can help. Find out what to know when dropping off your hire car.
Car Gate
At selected locations, SIXT uses Car Gates to photograph each vehicle as it leaves and re-enters the branch’s parking area – at the beginning and end of each rental. This ensures full transparency regarding the vehicle’s condition, streamlines the return process, and enhances the overall rental experience. While advanced technology supports the process, all decisions are always made by our trained staff. Learn more here.
Changes upon return
Sometimes you need to make a change to your car hire booking, such as an alternative drop-off location or payment method. Find out how to make changes to your booking while you're returning your hire car.
Reminder
A few things to remember at the end of your car hire, such as refuelling a car and inspecting for damage.
