What do you need to rent a car in North Charleston?

Two things — your driver's license and a credit card in your name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of alternative coverage if you choose to opt out. Be sure to check your policy requirements to avoid any problems.

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

This will depend on the rental companies that are found in North Charleston. They often have different age policies. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, keep in mind that extra costs may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before picking up the keys to your vehicle.

What insurance should I choose for my car rental in North Charleston?

After carefuly planning your vacation, don't skimp on your insurance — choose collision protection while booking your North Charleston rental car with Expedia.
