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

What types of cars can I rent in Southport?
Cost-effective, easy to handle and fuel-efficient, it's hardly surprising compact cars are the most in-demand rental type in Southport. Drive around this city in one of these and you'll be able to park in tight spaces and easily navigate traffic. A compact is ideal for city adventures or quick 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 — there's a style of vehicle to suit you!

How do I find the best car rental deals in Southport with Expedia?
Scoring the best deal on your Southport rental car is a piece of cake with Expedia. Choose your preferred car class, add in a few more details and compare the offers from leading suppliers. Why not add flights and hotels to your booking? You'll score even more savings when you combine your bookings into a package.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Southport?
Southport rules state drivers must be 21 and over to rent a car. However, young drivers can expect a surcharge and stricter rental conditions. Most suppliers impose a daily young renter fee on top of the standard rental rate. This covers the extra risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like mid-size and compact) are available to young renters, restrictions usually apply to premium and specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Southport?
Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — a valid driver's licence and credit card. If you'd like to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up the keys.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Southport?
You can. Expedia partners with quality providers that offer weekly and monthly rentals for all car types. Snap up one of our long-term car rental deals and explore every bit of Southport — or beyond!
Where can I find a Southport car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do some research. Found a Southport outlet that does rent to drivers under 25? Great! Just keep in mind that extra charges often apply to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in should have all the information you need.
