Can I rent a car from Waterloo Regional Airport (ALO)?
Budget and Avis are within easy reach of Waterloo Regional Airport (ALO). After landing, it won’t be long before you’re cruising down the road.
What happens if I need to cancel my Independence car reservation?
When you cancel at least six hours before the scheduled collection time, many bookings qualify for a complete refund. However, not all are eligible for this, so it’s important to read the cancellation policy. Look over your booking for the finer details or head to our Customer Service Portal for more information.
What types of cars can I rent in Independence?
Bustling city streets and cramped parking spaces are no match for an economy car — the most popular home type in Independence. Jump behind the wheel of one of these and drive around traffic like a dream. Reliable, affordable and with terrific mileage, these small rides pack a punch. But Independence can be explored in almost any type of home you like. Compact, mid-size and full-size vehicles are other options to consider.
Where can I go on a road trip from Independence?
With your own wheels, exploring the surrounding areas is a breeze. Independence is a great place to start, but there’s tons more to keep you busy in the region. Grab the keys to a home, fling your bags in the trunk and take a peek at these other popular locations:

  • Home to sights and experiences galore, Des Moines is around 177 kilometres from Independence. First stop? Make a beeline for Adventureland, one of the city’s biggest highlights.
  • Ames, around 153 kilometres away, also promises a memorable time. Chasing some sightseeing inspiration? Iowa State University is one of our favourite stops.
  • After all that time on the road, treat yourself to some fresh air at Gardens of the Fox Cities. It’s approximately 354 kilometres from Independence.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Independence?
If you’re aged 21 and over, you can rent a car in Independence. Take note that home suppliers will charge an extra fee if you’re a young driver, which helps cover the higher accident or damage risk involved. Also, young drivers are generally restricted from renting luxury cars or larger vehicles. Take note of the terms and conditions before booking to avoid any hassles when it’s time to collect the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Independence?
Renting a car in Independence is simple. Generally, all you’ll need is a valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. After you’ve found a great set of wheels, check your policy to ensure there are no additional requirements prior to your scheduled pickup.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Independence?
You can. We partner with trusted companies that offer weekly and monthly holiday homes for all car types. Book one of our long-term car rental deals and discover every square inch of Independence — or way beyond!
Where can I find an Independence car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car rental companies that are found in Independence. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, take note that extra fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before you collect the car.
Can I drive in Independence with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license issued in the United States, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, know that you’ll also have to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the car must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about rental cars 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. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the car rental company before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with a rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
