PARK RIDGE, N.J., July 12 /PRNewswire/ -- The Hertz Corporation
(NYSE: HRZ), the world's largest car rental Company, has expanded Hertz Local
Edition, its local suburban network of rental locations, nationally to include
its popular pick up and delivery service at more than 500 of its 600 local,
suburban rental locations.
In 1996, Hertz entered the local suburban market and initially serviced
local markets in the Boston/New England, Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles and
Oklahoma areas. Today, Hertz Local Edition is represented in 29 states
nationwide, which offers pick up and delivery service.
"In the U.S. the local market represents a rapidly growing niche for us.
More and more customers appreciate the convenience of renting a car in their

repair businesses and car dealerships are recognizing the need for convenient
access to vehicles that local rental offers their customers," said Joseph R.
