Where can I find a South Portland car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver hoping to book a holiday home in South Portland, we recommend checking 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 surcharges if you’re between 21 and 24 years old. To avoid any unpleasant surprises at the holiday home counter, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
Can I drive in South Portland with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the U.S, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. 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 forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. 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 areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car rental company before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
