Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Hampden car reservation?
We've all been faced with times when even our best-laid plans get upended. That's why we offer your money back on most prepaid reservations if you notify us at least six hours prior to pickup. Be sure to double-check the cancellation policy — in some cases it's not an option. Can't find the details there? Our Customer Service Portal has more useful information.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Hampden?
If you're 21 and over, you can rent a vehicle in Hampden. Be aware that rental companies will charge an additional fee if you're a young driver, which helps cover the higher damage or accident risk involved. Also, young drivers are often restricted from renting larger or luxury models of cars. Browse the fine print before you book to avoid any hassles when you pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Hampden?
The main things are your driver's licence 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 choose to opt out. Be sure to check your policy terms and conditions to avoid any issues.
What side of the road do you drive on in Hampden?
If you're renting a car in Hampden or planning a road trip around New Zealand, get ready to drive on the left-hand side. Also, the driver's seat and some controls will be on the opposite side of what you're used to in the U.S. This may feel a little unfamiliar at first, so drive with extra caution.

Where can I find a Hampden car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Hampden companies will rent cars to drivers under 25, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so be prepared to do some research. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some places will apply a surcharge to young drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
