Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Preston car reservation?

Whatever meets your needs! Go for a mid-size or full-size if you're travelling with the family, or scale up to a premium if you're chasing sophistication.

Affordable and with excellent mileage, they're ideal for solo travellers, couples or anyone else who doesn't require a large amount of room. They're especially suited to city exploring. Getting into tight parking spots will be a walk in the park!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Preston?
You need to be at least 21. But there are a few age-related requirements you should know about before you reserve your Preston wheels. If you're a young driver, most rental suppliers will charge an extra daily fee and limit the sorts of vehicles you're able to rent. The exact surcharge, and which age range it applies to, differs between companies. Take the time to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Preston?
Most rental companies will ask for these two things — your driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you decide to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
What side of the road do you drive on in Preston?
If you're renting a car in Preston, you'll have to stick to the left. Take note that the driver's seat will also be on the opposite side to what you're used to. Consider choosing a car with automatic transmission if you haven't driven on the left before.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Preston?
Yes, which means you won't have to rebook a rental car in the middle of your holiday. Go to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your travel dates and lock in a ride to call your own for the length of your escape.
Where can I find a Preston car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver looking to rent a car in Preston, we recommend reading the policies of the various car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. Surcharges may apply if you're aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any nasty surprises on pickup, make sure you do your research.
