Can I pick up a Zipcar in one city and leave it in another?
Pick up and return these cars and vans to their same dedicated bay. During your reservation you are able to park in other areas, but if you're stopping over in a space that requires a fee, you're responsible for paying it. We recommend Roundtrip for longer journeys, and they can be booked by the hour or day/s.
