How old do you have to be to rent a car in Watford?
Watford requires drivers to be 21 and above to be able to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect an extra charge and tighter home conditions. Many companies impose a young renter fee on top of the standard home rate. This covers the higher risk of accident or damage. While many car categories (like compact and economy) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to premium and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Watford?
Two things — a valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of other coverage if you opt out. Check with your home provider to avoid any issues.
What side of the road do you drive on in Watford?
In Watford, motorists drive on the left-hand side of the road. This alone can be daunting, but the steering wheel and other controls are also on the opposite side to the U.S. For a safe journey, take things slow at first and allow extra time to get to your next stop.
What is the cheapest car rental in Watford?
The cheapest price for a car rental in Watford within the past seven days was AU$145 per day. The second best deal was AU$182. These rates were available on Expedia, with a holiday home starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Watford?
You can. We partner with trusted companies that offer weekly and monthly holiday homes for many car classes. Check out our long-term car rental deals and discover every corner of Watford — or way beyond!
Where can I find a Watford car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a car if you are under 25 years old in Watford often depends on the holiday home provider you choose. Some businesses apply a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24 years of age, but others may not have any extra costs for this age range. Make sure you read the terms and conditions of your preferred car rental dealer to avoid extra costs when picking up your keys.
