It’s always a good idea to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Santa Cruz?
Most of the time, all you’ll need is a current driver’s license and credit card in your name when picking up the vehicle. You may also need your own proof of coverage if you decide to opt out of the company’s insurance plan. Rules often differ between rental companies, so it’s always wise to check the terms and conditions.
