No problem with that at all!
I make many booking, changes, cancellations and it's never been a problem.
I wouldn't change anything the day before the rental though or for 24 hours before the rental!
I make changes up until the moment I drive off the lot. All that hertz needs to do is reprint your contract at the gold booth.
To the op - some hertz stations employ sophisticated revenue management while others don't. Anectodaly, I hear mdw does adjust up or down up to the day of rental based on stories from chicago based folks loking to do wn rental runs.
