How old do you have to be to rent a car in Riverhead?
Drivers with a valid license aged 21 and above can rent a vehicle in Riverhead. While some companies may be willing to accommodate drivers younger than 21, they will add on fees. Find out what ages the young renter fee applies to, and what it costs, before making your reservation. There are also restrictions on the types of cars available to young drivers. Higher limits are in place for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Riverhead?
You'll generally require a current driver's license and credit card in your name when picking up your vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be required if you'd like to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Requirements are likely to differ between rental companies, so it's wise to check before booking.
What side of the road do you drive on in Riverhead?
If you're renting a vehicle in Riverhead or planning a big road trip in New Zealand, remember that you'll be driving on the left. Also, the driver's seat and some controls will be on the opposite side of what you're accustomed to in the U.S. This may feel unfamiliar at first, so take things slow to begin with.
What is the cheapest car rental in Riverhead?
The two lowest daily rates on offer in Riverhead within the past seven days were $85 and $88. How's that for an awesome 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.

Where can I find a Riverhead car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Riverhead outlets will rent cars to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Policies differ between suppliers, so be prepared to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some places will have a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Riverhead?
For a smooth, stress-free road trip, add Expedia's collision damage protection to your rental car booking. This insurance covers your ride against vandalism, accident damage and theft. It also provides customers with 24/7 emergency support in times of need. Opt in to this insurance while finalizing your Riverhead vehicle with Expedia and save money and time at the rental desk.
Can I drive in Riverhead with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some added requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in most places 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 the types of vehicles you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive away. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on off-road areas with a rental car.
