Does GEICO offer rental cars while my car is in the shop?

My car was damaged in an accident and is in the shop—but I still need a car to get to work. I have insurance with GEICO; is there any way that GEICO will provide me with a rental car while I wait for the repairs to be done?

I’m so sorry to hear about your accident; I hope you’re all right! I am glad to say that
GEICO
offers rental reimbursement coverage as an optional policy.
While your car is in the shop,
rental reimbursement
coverage provides you with a rental car.
Keep in mind that this
car insurance
policy has daily and per-claim limits, meaning that a 25/750 policy will provide up to $25 a day in car rental reimbursement to a maximum of $750 (or 30 days).
If you want to add rental reimbursement to your policy but you want to make sure you’re getting the best deal on it, try using the
