How old do you have to be to rent a car in Alachua?
In Alachua, the rule is generally 21 and over. Most companies will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can differ based on the home location. Home policies for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as specialty cars, and require comprehensive insurance to be taken out. Don’t forget to read the fine print carefully before locking in your ride.
What do you need to rent a car in Alachua?
Your driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Don’t want to take out the company’s insurance plan? In that case, you’re also likely to need proof of other coverage. Rules can differ between suppliers, so have a thorough read of your policy.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Alachua?
Whether you plan to stop in Alachua or discover what’s beyond, you can book a long-term holiday home with Expedia. Enter your trip dates and pick-up/drop-off locations and we’ll find you amazing long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find an Alachua car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the holiday home car companies located in Alachua. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found a place that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, be aware that extra fees may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before collecting the vehicle.
Can I drive in Alachua with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the U.S, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., note that you’ll also need to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car rental company before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your home vehicle. Please read the regulations before you book!
