No major credit required. Same-day keys in Lafayette since 1964.

Bruce's U-Save Auto Rental is a family counter, not a franchise desk with a queue. Cars, crew-cab pickups and 14-passenger vans, rented on a licence and a deposit, the same day you ask.

What it actually takes

Four things get you off the lot.

Most people who call have been turned away somewhere else for not holding a major credit card. You do not need one here. This is the whole list, and there is nothing under it.

  • 01A valid driver’s licence.
  • 02Every driver aged 21 or over.
  • 03Minimum liability insurance.
  • 04A card, or a cash deposit if you are local.

Kevin and father has came through on multiple occasions for us! At the most unexpected times! Awesome company to do business with and a seemless paperwork and document process. Great business. He'll get you RIGHT!

How the warranty works

Before you call

The questions the phone actually asks.

Answered the way we would answer them at the counter, with nothing invented. If your question is not here, the phone is quicker than a form.

Yes. That is the whole reason a lot of people in Lafayette come to us. We take a credit card, a debit card, or a cash deposit from local renters. You do not need a major credit line to drive off the lot.

Four things: a valid driver's license, proof you carry at least minimum liability insurance, an age of 21 or over for every driver, and a credit card, debit card or cash deposit. Bring those and the paperwork is short.

A Chevy Impala 4-door, a Chrysler minivan, a Ford F-150 Crew Cab, a Chevy Suburban, a 9-passenger Ford Expedition, and a 14-passenger Chevy van. Cars through to 15-passenger vans, in other words, and we will tell you straight if the one you want is already out.

Usually, yes. Same-day rental is normal here, not a special favour. Call the counter at (337) 234-3294 and we will tell you what is sitting on the lot right now.

On our used vehicles, engine and transmission, for 30 days, split fifty-fifty. If something goes wrong with either in that window, we cover half the repair and you cover half.

We quote per vehicle and per length of rental rather than publishing a rate card, and quotes are free. Ask about weekend packages when you call, because those are priced differently to a straight daily rental.

1413 Jefferson Street, Lafayette, a few blocks off the downtown area. Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Closed Saturday and Sunday.
