In short

How do I get reminded before an Avis rental car is due back?

WebRun tracks your team's active and upcoming Avis rentals every morning, logs each one to Trello with the renter and return deadline, and sends a WhatsApp reminder the morning it's due back. Return dates stop slipping through the cracks, and late fees get avoided without anyone checking a calendar by hand.

  • Return reminders land the same morning a rental is due back
  • Late fees get avoided without anyone tracking dates manually
  • Every active rental has a status visible on one Trello board

Built for Fleet and travel coordinators · Office managers · Field service teams · Small business owners renting vehicles

Questions, answered

Will it extend or modify a rental for us?

No. WebRun only tracks the current booking and its return deadline. Extending or changing a rental is done by the renter directly with Avis.

How early does the reminder go out?

It messages the renter the same morning their rental is due back, giving them time to return it before the late fee window opens.

What happens once a rental is returned?

Its Trello card is archived instead of deleted, so the team keeps a record of past rentals without cluttering the active board.
