Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Jefferson?

What happens if I need to cancel my Jefferson car reservation?
Our Customer Service Portal has details about cancellations. In nearly all situations, full refunds are provided if a reservation is canceled more than six hours prior to the collection time. It's a good idea to scan the car rental agreement to double-check if there are any exemptions.
What types of cars can I rent in Jefferson?
Bustling city streets and narrow parking spaces are no sweat for an economy car — the most in-demand rental type in Jefferson. Slide behind the wheel of one of these and navigate traffic effortlessly. Reliable, affordable and with excellent mileage, these small rides pack a punch. But Jefferson can be explored in almost any type of rental you like. Compact, full-size and premium vehicles are other options to consider.
Where can I go on a road trip from Jefferson?
Jefferson is full of adventures, but don't limit yourself to one place. Pick up a set of wheels and head off to see what else awaits in the wider area. Here are a few ideas:

  • Head off to Des Moines for an excellent sightseeing adventure. Around 50 mi from Jefferson, it's home to many amazing attractions, including Adventureland.
  • Next stop? It has to be Omaha, which is around 95 mi away. Creighton University is one local draw card you shouldn't miss.
  • Head to Maquoketa Caves State Park to rediscover nature. Pack a picnic to enjoy or just chill out in the fresh air. From Jefferson, it's about 180 mi away.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Jefferson?
The youngest age you can rent a car in Jefferson is 21. A young driver surcharge will apply, so check before booking and budget for any extra costs. There could also be restrictions on the types of cars that can be rented by young drivers. For example, some companies will only rent out small to medium-sized cars to young motorists. Rules may vary between suppliers, so read the fine print carefully.
What do you need to rent a car in Jefferson?
The main things are your 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 alternative coverage if you prefer to opt out. Make sure you check your policy requirements to avoid any issues.
What is the cheapest car rental in Jefferson?
The two lowest daily prices on offer in Jefferson within the past seven days were $86 and $89. Now that's what we'd call a great deal! These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental 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 Jefferson?
Yes, so you won't need to rebook a rental vehicle mid-vacation. Head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and find a ride that's all yours for the duration of your escape.
Where can I find a Jefferson car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Jefferson providers will rent to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Policies differ between suppliers, so you should do some research. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some businesses will have a surcharge for young drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. Be sure to read through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Jefferson?
A comprehensive insurance policy is a good idea for your upcoming Jefferson escape. That's why we recommend adding collision protection while reserving your rental car with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, vandalism and collision damage. Some destinations may require a minimum level of liability insurance. It's possible that this is included in your rental cost or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and whether you need it.
