How old do you have to be to rent a car in Telluride?
Telluride rules state drivers must be 19 and above before they can rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect a surcharge and tighter home conditions. Many outlets impose a young renter fee on top of the car rental rate. This covers the higher risk of accident or damage. While many car classes (like economy and compact) are available to young renters, restrictions usually apply to luxury and specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Telluride?
A valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are necessities. Opting out of the company’s insurance plan? Then you may also need proof of your own coverage. The requirements may differ between suppliers, so be sure to read through your policy.

Where can I find a Telluride car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a younger driver hoping to rent a car in Telluride, we recommend reading the policies of the car rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25 some may not. There may be additional costs if you’re aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any unwanted surprises at the holiday home desk, make sure you do your research.
Can I drive in Telluride with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the U.S, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. 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 driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the car rental company before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with a rental car.
