Your home policy should include all the specifics you need. If you can’t see the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is always available.
What types of cars can I rent in Gainesville?
Bustling city streets and cramped parking spots are no match for an economy car — the most commonly booked home type in Gainesville. Hop behind the wheel of one of these and navigate traffic effortlessly. Reliable, affordable and good on gas, these small cars pack plenty of punch. But Gainesville can be explored in almost any type of home you like. Compact, mid-size and full-size vehicles are some other options to choose from.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Gainesville?
Home vehicle rules in Gainesville require drivers to be 21 and older. Are you a younger driver? Some restrictions and surcharges may apply. Home outlets impose what’s known as a young renter surcharge, which is an extra fee to the rental car cost. Restrictions generally apply to the sorts of cars available to young motorists as well. Age limits may vary between providers, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Gainesville?
Two things — a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you choose to opt out. Check your policy requirements to avoid any hassles.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Gainesville?
Yes, so you won’t have to rebook a holiday home vehicle halfway through your holiday. Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and secure a set of wheels to call your own for however long you need.
Where can I find a Gainesville car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver hoping to rent a vehicle in Gainesville, check the terms and conditions of the car rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25 some may not. There may be additional fees if you’re aged between 21 and 24. To escape any unpleasant surprises at the holiday home desk, make sure you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Gainesville with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the United States, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required, 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 you used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
