How old do you have to be to rent a car in Dayton?
Home vehicle rules in Dayton require drivers to be 21 and above. Are you a younger driver? Some surcharges and restrictions may apply. Many home companies impose what is known as a young renter surcharge, which is an additional fee to the car rental cost. Restrictions often apply to the types of cars available to young people as well. Age limits may vary between outlets, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Dayton?
Any home company you select will need these two things — your driver’s license and credit card. If you’d prefer to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to pick up the keys.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Dayton?
Yes, which means you won’t have to rebook a holiday home vehicle in the middle of your holiday. Head over to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your information and find a ride that’s all yours for however long you need.
Where can I find a Dayton car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to look into the age policy of the Dayton holiday home suppliers you’re interested in. If you’re under the age of 25 be mindful that some will charge additional fees. It’s useful to know about this in advance so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Each holiday home car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
Can I drive in Dayton with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the U.S, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you’ll also have to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home vehicle. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
