About Rent-A-Wreck
Rent-A-Wreck is the Smart AlternativeTM to all your car rental needs. Founded in 1968 and franchising since 1973, we are one of the best-known neighborhood car rental companies in the U.S. and global market. 'Do you really rent wrecks?' After being in business for many years with one of the most unique and memorable corporate names, we still get calls from people every day asking this question. Rest assured, our vehicles are more like the cars you drive everyday. We keep our fleet of cars, trucks, and vans clean and well maintained; they are far from wrecks! We hope that our funny name helps you to remember us, and our low cost rentals and high quality customer service will earn and keep your business. Whether you need a rental vehicle for business, pleasure or something in between, Rent-a-Wreck is here for all your driving needs. Many of our locations stock economy cars and full size luxury sedans; and they also offer pickup trucks, box trucks, min-vans, cargo vans, 15-passenger vans, SUVs, and station wagons for rent as well! Try any of our locations across the United States and internationally in Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Rent-A-Wreck has franchise opportunities available in the United States and internationally.
