Child Seat Options
Booster Seat
Hertz can provide you with a belt-positioning high back booster seat to be used in the back seat for children who have outgrown a convertible car seat. The belt-positioning booster seat must be used in seating positions equipped with lap and shoulder belts. Children weighing 40-80 pounds or 18kg-36kgs should use these seats.
Infant Child Seats
Hertz can provide you with an infant car seat to be used for infants who are less than one year old and weigh up to 20 pounds or up to 9 kgs. Children are too large for this type of car seat if they weigh over 20 pounds/9 kgs or are longer than 26 inches/66 cms. Infant seats must be installed rear-facing. These seats are designed to support a child's neck, back and spinal cord.
