What happens if I need to cancel my Reno car reservation?

It’s a good idea to read your home policy though as there are some exclusions. If there’s nothing specified there, click on our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Reno?
Economy, compact, full-size, premium … You name it, we’re likely to have it! But intermediate is the most booked home class in Reno. These cars are roomy and comfortable compared to economy and compact rides. While an intermediate is smaller than a full-size, you’ll still have plenty of legroom and storage space. Whether you’re sticking around Reno or headed farther afield, you’ll be doing it in style.
Where can I go on a road trip from Reno?
There’s so much to do in Reno, but head farther afield and you’ll find even more magic. Organise a set of wheels and you can cruise around the surrounding region at your own speed. Add these fantastic places to your list:

  • Make tracks to Sacramento for a fun-filled sightseeing experience. Around 177 kilometres from Reno, it has numerous amazing attractions like Sacramento Zoo.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Reno?
Anyone with a valid driver’s license 21 and over can rent a vehicle in Reno. While some companies may be willing to accommodate drivers younger than 21 a fee will be added. Find out what age range the young driver surcharge applies to, and associated costs, before booking your ride. Providers also restrict the categories of cars young drivers can rent. Higher limits are in place for specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Reno?
Most home companies will ask for these two things — a current driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you’d prefer to opt out of the supplier’s insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read through 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 Reno?
Whether you plan to stick around Reno or discover what’s beyond, you can book a long-term holiday home with Expedia. Enter your trip details and pick-up/drop-off locations and we’ll find you excellent long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Reno car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a younger driver hoping to book a holiday home in Reno, we suggest reading the policies of the various holiday home companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25 some may not. There may be surcharges if you’re between 21 and 24 years of age. To escape any unpleasant surprises on pickup, make sure you do your research.
Can I drive in Reno with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the U.S, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., know that you’ll also have to show your current 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 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 places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car rental website before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot 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, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with a rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
