Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Palmerston North Intl. Airport (PMR)?

What happens if I need to cancel my Maharahara car reservation?
We have good news! You should receive a complete refund if you cancel a minimum of six hours ahead of the collection time. Your itinerary contains details about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid rentals will receive a refund though, so it's a good idea to scan your rental policy.

Explore this city in one of these and you'll be able to park in tight spaces and easily navigate busy streets. A compact is ideal for city adventures or short road trips. But they're not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy model or stretch out in an intermediate, a full-size or premium — the choice is all yours!

Usually, you need to be 21 years and over in Maharahara. You should be aware that most outlets have a young driver surcharge.

What do you need to rent a car in Maharahara?
Two things — a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of alternative coverage if you opt out. Be sure to check your policy terms and conditions to avoid any hassles.
What side of the road do you drive on in Maharahara?
Motorists in Maharahara drive on the left-hand side, and the steering wheel and other controls are on the opposite side to U.S. vehicles. Take a while getting acquainted with your new car before setting out.

Where can I find a Maharahara car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Maharahara outlets will rent cars to drivers under 25, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll need to do some research. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some places will pass on a surcharge to customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
