Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Balham car reservation?
We're aware that plans change at short notice. That's why many prepaid reservations offer your money back if you cancel six hours prior to collection. Your rental agreement should have all the details you need. If you can't locate the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is always available.
What types of cars can I rent in Balham?
Not too small and not too big, compact vehicles are the top choice for many visitors to Balham. Featuring exceptional gas mileage and easy handling and parking, they're well-suited to navigating the city. A compact has more space than an economy vehicle, so you can get around in a little extra comfort and convenience. Prefer something bigger? Check out our intermediate, standard or full-size range.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Balham?
The youngest age you can rent a vehicle in Balham is 21. A young driver surcharge generally applies, so check before booking and take into account any extra costs. There could also be restrictions on the categories of vehicles available to young drivers. For example, some outlets will only rent out economy to medium-sized cars to less-experienced motorists. Rules may differ between outlets, so look over the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Balham?
Generally, you'll need a current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when collecting the keys to your car. You may also need proof of coverage if you'd like to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Requirements are likely to differ between rental providers, so be sure to read the fine print.
What side of the road do you drive on in Balham?
If you're renting a vehicle in Balham or planning a road trip around England, you'll be driving on the left. Also, the steering wheel will be on a different side to what you're accustomed to in the U.S. This may feel a little unfamiliar at first, so take things slow to begin with.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Balham?
Check out our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and then book your perfect ride. Whether you're stopping in Balham or road-tripping around, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at an awesome rate.
Where can I find a Balham car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies that are in Balham. 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 additional fees may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before picking up your vehicle.
