Question 5

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Redwood?

Requirements may vary between companies, so read the fine print carefully.

Question 6

What do you need to rent a car in Redwood?

The essentials are a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of other coverage if you prefer to opt out. Make sure you check with your supplier to avoid any hassles.

Question 7

Question 10

Where can I find a Redwood car rental if I am younger than 25?

Accepted Answer

Whether you can rent a car if you're under 25 years in Redwood often depends on the rental provider you choose. Some businesses apply a surcharge for drivers between 21 and 24 years old, whereas others may not have any extra costs for this age range. Ensure you understand the terms and conditions of your prospective rental dealer to escape excessive charges at the rental desk.

Question 11

What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Redwood?

Accepted Answer

For a safe, stress-free getaway, add Expedia's collision damage protection while reserving your rental car. This insurance covers your ride against collision damage, theft and vandalism. It also provides round-the-clock emergency assistance in times of need. Opt in to this insurance while finalizing your Redwood ride with Expedia and save money and time at the rental desk.

Question 12

Can I drive in Redwood with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

If you don't hold a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then it's likely you'll need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. Also consider that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked to show your current license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note for international car rentals are:

Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 in many countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to what kinds of cars you can rent.
Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental vehicle.
