How old do you have to be to rent a car in Watkins?
If you're aged 21 and over, you can rent a vehicle in Watkins. Be aware that most rental suppliers will charge an additional fee if you're a young driver, which helps cover the higher accident risk involved. Also, young motorists often aren't permitted to rent larger vehicles and luxury cars. Take note of the fine print before booking to avoid any hassles at the rental counter.
What do you need to rent a car in Watkins?
Any rental company you choose will require two things — your driver's licence and credit card. If you choose to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.

Where can I find a Watkins car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether or not you can rent a vehicle if you're under 25 years in Watkins often depends on the rental provider you select. Some places apply a surcharge for drivers aged between 21 and 24 years, yet others may not have any extra fees for this age bracket. Make sure you understand the terms and conditions of your preferred car company to escape extra charges on pickup.
