Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Ladysmith (LAY)?
Budget is a short commute from the terminal and the only car rental outlet. Book your vehicle sooner rather than later to avoid missing out.
What happens if I need to cancel my Colenso car reservation?
No worries! If you cancel your prepaid reservation more than six hours prior to picking up the car, you may qualify for a full refund. It's a good idea to read your cancellation policy as there are some exclusions. Head to our Customer Service Portal if you're unsure of anything.
