What types of cars can I rent in Alden?
Not too small yet not too big, compact cars are the number one choice for many visitors to Alden. Featuring exceptional mileage and easy manoeuvrability and parking, they're ideal for navigating the city. A compact offers slightly more space than an economy vehicle, so you can cruise around in a little more comfort. Need a bit more legroom? Check out our standard, intermediate and full-size options.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Alden?
The youngest age you can rent a car in Alden 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 categories of vehicles available to young drivers. For instance, some providers will only rent out small and medium-sized cars to less-experienced motorists. Requirements may vary between providers, so look over the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Alden?
Two things — a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. 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. We recommend checking with your rental provider to avoid any problems.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Alden?
You can, and the good news is providers often offer lower prices the longer your rental term. Browse our long-term car rental deals in Alden and cruise off with an impressive bargain.
Where can I find an Alden car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car rental companies operating in Alden. They often have different age policies. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, bear in mind that additional costs may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before booking your rental.
