How old do you have to be to rent a car in Maidstone?
Maidstone requires drivers to be 21 and above to be able to rent a car. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra cost and tighter home conditions. Most companies impose a daily young renter fee on top of the usual car rental rate. This covers the higher risk of accident or damage. While many car classes (like economy and compact) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Maidstone?
The main things are a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you prefer to opt out. Make sure you check your policy requirements to avoid any hassles.
What side of the road do you drive on in Maidstone?
Unlike the U.S, people in Maidstone drive on the left-hand side of the road. Having the steering wheel and some other controls on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Take a few moments to familiarize yourself with the car before driving away.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Maidstone?
Yes, and the awesome news is providers often offer lower prices the longer you rent. Look up our long-term car rental deals in Maidstone and drive off with an incredible bargain.
Where can I find a Maidstone car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between holiday home companies, so you’ll have to do some research. Managed to find a Maidstone outlet that does rent to under 25s? Great news! Just take note that a surcharge often applies to drivers between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each holiday home car you’re interested in should have all the details you need.
