How old do you have to be to rent a car in Caloundra?
Rental car rules in Caloundra require drivers to be at least 21. Are you a younger driver? A few surcharges and restrictions could apply. Most home providers impose what's known as a young renter surcharge, which is an extra fee to the cost of the rental car. Restrictions generally apply to the sorts of cars young motorists can rent as well. Age limits may differ between companies, so check before you book.
What do you need to rent a car in Caloundra?
Any home company you choose will require two things — a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you'd like to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
What side of the road do you drive on in Caloundra?
People in Caloundra drive on the left-hand side, and the steering wheel and other controls are on the opposite side to cars in the U.S. Spend a bit of extra time getting familiar with the differences before venturing out.

Where can I find a Caloundra car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a car under the age of 25 in Caloundra often depends on the holiday home company you choose. Some places have a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years of age, yet other companies may not have any additional costs for this age bracket. It'd be smart to read the terms and conditions of your preferred holiday home company to escape unnecessary costs when collecting your car.
