Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Opawa car reservation?
No need to worry. You should be given a complete refund if you advise us a minimum of six hours ahead of collecting the car. Your confirmation contains details about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all bookings result in a refund though, so it's a good idea to read through the car's rental agreement.
What types of cars can I rent in Opawa?
Not too small yet not too big, compact cars are the top pick for many visiting motorists in Opawa. With exceptional mileage and easy parking and handling, they're ideal for travelling around the city. A compact car is slightly more spacious than an economy vehicle, so you can tour around in a bit more comfort. Want something bigger? Check out our intermediate, standard or full-size range.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Opawa?

Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any extra fees or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Opawa?
You'll need to present a valid driver's licence and a credit card at the rental counter. Before pickup, check with your rental provider whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of insurance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Opawa?
In Opawa, all cars drive on the left-hand side of the road. This obviously differs from driving in the States, so minimize distractions and focus when you're behind the steering wheel.
