Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Washington car reservation?
There are always times when plans change. That's why we provide a full refund on most bookings if you cancel a minimum of six hours in advance of pickup. Remember to double-check your policy — in some cases it's not available. Can't find anything there? Our Customer Service Portal has more useful information.
What types of cars can I rent in Washington?
Affordably priced, a dream to handle and delivering great mileage, it's little wonder compact cars are the most sought-after rental type in Washington. Tour this city in one of these and you'll be able to slide into tight parking spaces and easily manoeuvre busy streets. A compact is ideal for city escapes or shorter road trips. But they're not your only choice. Go even smaller with an economy model or bigger with an intermediate, a full-size or premium — there's a style of vehicle to suit you!

Age limits may differ between outlets, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Washington?
Before you can road trip around Washington, you'll need a driver's licence and a credit card.

Requirements may vary, so understand the policy terms and conditions before you choose a rental supplier.

Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be extra fees if you're between 21 and 24 years of age.
