Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Manhattan car reservation?
Read over your policy to be certain, but most rentals are eligible for a full refund if you advise us at least six hours before picking up the car. There are some exceptions though. Your itinerary will have more information, or just hop onto our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Manhattan?
Full-size rides, compact cars, powerful SUVs ... Hop behind the wheel of whatever you prefer! Economy is the most in-demand rental vehicle category in Manhattan. Zippy, with great mileage and a snap to park, these wheels make getting around bustling city streets a delight. Maybe best of all? Your budget will love them. That means you'll have more money to splash on other things, like discovering as much of this destination as possible.
Where can I go on a road trip from Manhattan?
There's heaps to do in Manhattan, but head further afield and you'll find more sightseeing magic. Grab a set of wheels and you can meander around the surrounding area at your own pace. Add these awesome drives to your travel schedule:

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Manhattan?
Drivers 21 and over can go road-tripping around Manhattan in a rental car. If you're a young motorist, a daily surcharge applies. You'll generally have fewer car categories to select from, such as economy and mid-size, and may also have to buy inclusive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to find out if any restrictions or surcharges apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Manhattan?
Any rental company you select will need these two things — a current driver's licence and credit card. If you choose to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your car.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Manhattan?
Yes, and you're sure to find your perfect set of wheels on our long-term car rental deals page. Just enter your trip information and we'll list amazing offers from various reputable companies.
Where can I find a Manhattan car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so be prepared to do a bit of homework. Found a Manhattan supplier that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Great news! Just bear in mind that extra fees often apply to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're considering should have all the details you need.
