What types of cars can I rent in Riverside?

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Riverside?
Generally, you need to be 21 years of age and over in Riverside. Be aware that most outlets will charge extra fees for young drivers. Check before you choose your ride, as rules may differ between rental car suppliers. Keep in mind that if you’re planning to rent a specialty ride or a larger car like a premium SUV, rules may require drivers to be older than 21.
What do you need to rent a car in Riverside?
Two things — your 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 opt out. We recommend checking with your home provider to avoid any hassles.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Riverside?
Yes, which means you won’t have to rebook a holiday home car in the middle of your holiday. Click through to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and book a ride to call your own for the duration of your getaway.
Where can I find a Riverside car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between holiday home suppliers, so be prepared to do a little shopping around. Found a Riverside supplier that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Terrific! Just be aware that some companies charge extra fees to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each holiday home car you’re looking at should have all the details you need.
Can I drive in Riverside with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license issued in the U.S, then you might need to get 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., be aware that you’ll also have to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you 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 must be at least 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car rental website before you book 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 unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or go off-roading with your home vehicle. Please read the regulations before you book!
