Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Princeton car reservation?
Cancelling a prepaid reservation six hours before the scheduled pickup time should allow for a complete refund. But this is not always a given. It's worth reading through your booking confirmation and rental agreement. Still need help? Hop on our Customer Service Portal.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Princeton?
You need to be 21 and over to hop behind the wheel of a rental vehicle in Princeton.

What do you need to rent a car in Princeton?
Any rental company you select will need these two things — your driver's licence and credit card. If you want to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.

Where can I find a Princeton car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Princeton providers will rent to drivers under 25, and others won't. Policies differ between suppliers, so you'll have to do some research. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
