What happens if I need to cancel my Charleston car reservation?
When you cancel at least six hours in advance of the collection time, most prepaid reservations offer a complete refund.

What do you need to rent a car in Charleston?
The main requirements are your driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you opt out. Make sure you check your policy terms and conditions to avoid any hassles.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Charleston?
Yes. We partner with quality suppliers that offer weekly and monthly rentals for many car classes. Reserve one of our long-term car rental deals and explore every inch of Charleston — or beyond!
Where can I find a Charleston car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to investigate the age policy of the Charleston rental providers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 years old, some companies will charge extra fees. It’s ideal to know about this before collecting the vehicle so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own policies for young drivers, so be sure to do your research.
