Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Knoxville car reservation?
We appreciate that things happen and plans change unexpectedly. That's why many prepaid bookings allow for your money back if you cancel six hours in advance of pickup. Your rental policy should have all the information you need. If you can't locate the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is available to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Knoxville?
Keep costs low with an economy, style it up in a premium ride or go for something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to go past a compact car — the number one choice in Knoxville. They're easy to park and handle, fuel-efficient and a smart idea if you're exploring cities. An upgrade from economy, you can expect a little more room and comfort at a price that's still nice.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Knoxville?
Rental vehicle rules in Knoxville require drivers to be at least 21. Are you a young driver? Some surcharges and restrictions may apply. Rental providers impose what's known as a young driver surcharge, which is an additional fee to the cost of the rental car. Restrictions often apply to the classes of cars available to young motorists as well. Age limits may vary between suppliers, so check before you book.
What do you need to rent a car in Knoxville?
The main things are a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of other coverage if you choose to opt out. We recommend checking your policy requirements to avoid any problems.

Where can I find a Knoxville car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so be prepared to do a bit of research. Found a Knoxville outlet that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Terrific news! Just keep in mind that extra fees often apply to drivers between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in should have all the details you need.
