How old do you have to be to rent a car in Dayton?
Drivers aged 21 and above can go road-tripping around Dayton in a rental vehicle. If you're a young motorist, a daily surcharge will apply.

Always enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to learn if any restrictions or surcharges apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Dayton?
While rules may differ between outlets, the two main things you'll need are your driver's licence and a credit card in your name. You don't need to take out the company's auto insurance. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Dayton?
Yes, and the terrific news is suppliers often offer lower prices the longer your rental term. Check out our long-term car rental deals in Dayton and hit the road with an amazing bargain.
Where can I find a Dayton car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies operating in Dayton. They often have different age policies. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25, bear in mind that extra fees may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before you collect the car.
