Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Columbus?
You'll get serious bang for your travel buck in Columbus, with car rental prices within the past seven days starting from as low as $61 per day.
Can I rent a car from Columbus, NE (OLU-Columbus Municipal)?
Hightail it out of Columbus, NE (OLU-Columbus Municipal) and rent a car from Enterprise. This car rental outlet is a short commute from the terminal.
What happens if I need to cancel my Columbus car reservation?
No need to worry. You should get a full refund if you let us know at least six hours prior to pickup. Your confirmation contains details about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid bookings qualify for a refund though, so it's a good idea to go over your car rental policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Columbus?
Many visitors rent economy vehicles in Columbus. Drivers love them because they're easy on the budget. Plus, their smaller size makes them well-suited to getting around cities, where streets are crowded and parking can be a challenge. But economy isn't your only option. SUVs, full-size cars and compacts are up for grabs too. Whether you're hanging around Columbus or headed beyond, we'll have the wheels for you.
Where can I go on a road trip from Columbus?
Everyone knows that Columbus is one of the best getaways in Platte County. But you'll also find countless other terrific places to explore when you reserve some wheels and hit the road. Here are some suggestions to get your journey off to a spectacular start:

  • Boasting sights and experiences galore, Omaha is about 75 mi from Columbus. First up on the itinerary? Head for Creighton University, one of the city's biggest highlights.
  • About 75 mi away, Council Bluffs is another location worth adding to your itinerary. Check out Horseshoe Council Bluffs while you're there.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Columbus?
Anyone with a valid driver's license aged 21 and over can rent a car in Columbus. While some outlets may be willing to rent to drivers younger than 21, expect an extra fee. Find out what age range the young driver surcharge applies to, and associated costs, before reserving your ride. Providers also restrict the types of cars available to young drivers. Higher limits are in place for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to rent a car in Columbus?
In most cases, all you'll need is a driver's license and a credit card in the same name when picking up your vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be required if you choose to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Rules may differ between providers, so it's always a good idea to check in advance.

Where can I find a Columbus car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look into the age policy of the Columbus rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years of age, be aware that some will charge additional costs. It's useful to know about this ahead of time so you can plan your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for young drivers, so it pays to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Columbus?
It's a wise idea to have collision protection to safeguard your Columbus car rental against theft, accident damage and vandalism. And with Expedia, you can easily add this insurance to your vehicle at the time of booking. Providing up to $35,000 in primary coverage, it also offers round-the-clock emergency support and a zero-dollar deductible in the event of a claim. Change of plans? If you cancel your insurance before your scheduled collection time, you'll get a 100 percent refund.
