As a result of the devastation caused by Hurricane Ike, Texas-based Advantage Rent A Car has responded by sending much needed inventory of rental cars into the Houston area.

Thousands of vehicles in the region have been either rendered inoperable or destroyed as a result of flooding and other storm damage. To assist in taking care of the tremendous demand for rental cars that will be needed in the city for relief and reconstruction, Advantage has already started to move additional vehicles into the Houston area.

“As a company with deep roots in Texas, we were naturally concerned for the welfare of our employees, friends and neighbors,” said Denny Hecker, Chairman of Advantage. “Although our own Houston location was in the path of the storm I am proud of the fact that our employees and managers have committed to meet the emergency needs of our customers.”
