The following guidelines have been established to help us control the operation of our institution\u2019s rented vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. The College of Wooster has a contract with Enterprise that provides pick-up and return of all
    rental vehicles to the local Enterprise branch (located at 5590 Cleveland Rd, Wooster) and open
    between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 pm. If you are unable to get to the Enterprise branch, rentals can be
    delivered to the Service Center between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. There will be a $50 delivery fee added
    for all rentals delivered to the College. Enterprise charges one day as a 24-hour period.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

    insurance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

  7. Rental Vehicle Accident Reporting Procedures:
    Vehicle accidents can seriously impact the lives of those involved, both as drivers and as
    passengers. To minimize the long-term effects of those accidents and to ensure that they do not
    recur, the following policies and procedures are in effect:\n
      \n
    1. If a rental vehicle is involved in a collision with another vehicle, object or person or a
      one-car accident, such as rolling over and going into a ditch, the driver should call 911for Police
      and, if there are any suspected injuries to driver or passengers, request emergency medical
      assistance. All accidents are to be reported to the police immediately (no matter how minor).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
