Are all your rental stations in Finland open?

Yes, almost all our rental stations are open in the country and fully operational for online or walk-in reservations currently. If  the situation causes changes in your booking, you will be contacted by our customer service team to make suitable arrangements.

Please note that some of our service stations are working as Meet & Greet only. This means that our staff will be there only at the time of your rental. Please provide us with your exact pick-up time and let us know if it changes so that we can serve you as fluently as possible.

What additional precautions is Budget taking to help reduce the spread of the Coronavirus?

We are closely monitoring the information shared by the World Health Organization concerning advice on how to help reduce the spread of COVID-19.

To help protect our staff and customers we are encouraging regular hand washing, and the use of hand sanitizer, where available.  We’ve also enhanced the already robust cleaning techniques of our vehicles after each rental.  In particular, we are paying special attention to the places people touch such as steering wheels, door handles and other hard surfaces.

We advise all our customers to keep updated on the latest developments from the World Health Organisation and the UK’s Foreign & Commonwealth Office.
