Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Wilmington?
Getting around Wilmington doesn't have to drain your savings, with daily car rental prices starting at just $37 within the past seven days.
Can I rent a car from Los Angeles Intl. Airport (LAX)?
There are several car rental centers just moments from Los Angeles Intl. Airport (LAX), but you won't find any inside the terminal. Your closest options include Sixt, Fox, Thrifty, Payless and National.
What happens if I need to cancel my Wilmington car reservation?
When you cancel at least six hours ahead of the pickup time, the majority of prepaid reservations offer a refund. However, not all are eligible for this, so it's important to understand the rental agreement. Read through your booking for the finer details or visit our Customer Service Portal to find out more.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Wilmington?
In Wilmington, the requirement is 21 years of age and over. Most outlets will charge extra fees for young drivers, which can vary depending on the rental location. Rental agreements for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as premium SUVs, and require the purchase of inclusive insurance. It's a good idea to read the fine print carefully before choosing your wheels.
What do you need to rent a car in Wilmington?
A valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? In that case, you may also require proof of your own coverage. Requirements may differ between rental suppliers, so have a thorough read of your policy.
What is the cheapest car rental in Wilmington?

Where can I find a Wilmington car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a vehicle if you're under 25 years in Wilmington often depends on the rental provider you choose. Some outlets have a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years of age, whereas other companies may not have any extra fees for this age range. It'd be wise to understand the terms and conditions of your selected rental dealer to escape extra costs when picking up your keys.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Wilmington?
A thorough insurance plan is a good choice for your Wilmington adventure. That's why we suggest choosing collision protection while booking your rental car with Expedia. This covers your vehicle from theft, accident damage and vandalism. Some destinations may need you to have a minimum level of liability insurance. This might be included in your rental cost or your own auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and if you need it.
