What happens if I need to cancel my West Coast car reservation?
We know that things change at short notice. That’s why many prepaid reservations allow for your money back if you cancel at least six hours before the scheduled collection time. Your rental policy should include all the details you need. If you can’t locate the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is available 24/7.
What types of cars can I rent in West Coast?

They’re a great fit for couples, solo adventurers and budget-conscious families. Of course, how you get around is totally up to you!

Higher age limits apply for specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in West Coast?

But you may have to provide proof of alternative coverage if you prefer to opt out. We recommend checking with your rental agency to avoid any problems.
Can I drive in West Coast with my U.S. Driver's license?
Yes, your valid U.S. License will be enough for you to drive legally in West Coast. But if you’re the sort of adventurer who prefers to be prudent, get an International Driving Permit. It’s relatively easy to arrange.

Where can I find a West Coast car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a vehicle if you are under 25 in West Coast often depends on the rental supplier you choose.

Be sure to read the terms and conditions of your preferred rental dealer to avoid unnecessary costs on pickup.
