Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA)?

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

What types of cars can I rent in Wakefield?
Premium, full-size, standard, compact ... You name it, we're likely to have it! But intermediate is the most booked rental class in Wakefield. These cars are roomy and comfortable compared to compact and economy rides. While an intermediate is smaller than a full-size, you'll still have plenty of legroom and storage space. Whether you're sticking around Wakefield or going further afield, you'll be doing it in style.
Where can I go on a road trip from Wakefield?
After you've visited all of the terrific places in Wakefield, there's a lot more to see in the surrounding area. Grab the keys to a rental car, toss your bags in the trunk and take to the open road. These are some drives we think you'll love:

  • Greater Manchester is roughly 48 kilometres from Wakefield. Renowned tourist spots like Old Trafford deserve to be high on your list here.
  • Approximately 105 kilometres away, Chester is also a hit with travellers. Be sure to take in Chester Zoo while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love visiting this colourful city.
  • Visit Brighton Beach for a day out in nature. Pack a picnic to enjoy or just relax and unwind. From Wakefield, it's around 338 kilometres away.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Wakefield?
In Wakefield, the rule is usually 21 years of age and over. Most outlets will charge extra fees for young drivers, which can differ based on the rental location. Rental policies for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as specialty cars, and require the purchase of comprehensive insurance. Remember to read the fine print carefully before locking in your ride.
What do you need to rent a car in Wakefield?
A valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? Then there's a good chance you'll also need proof of your own coverage. Requirements may differ between suppliers, so have a thorough read of your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in Wakefield?
You'll be driving on the left in Wakefield. This means that the driver's seat and controls are also on the other side to what you're used to. Leave extra time to get familiar with your new car before setting out.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Wakefield?
Expedia makes it a cinch to pick up a long-term rental in Wakefield. Simply visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and compare the offers.
Where can I find a Wakefield car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so you'll have to do a bit of homework. Managed to find a Wakefield outlet that does rent to under 25s? That's great! Just bear in mind that extra charges often apply to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're looking at will have all the details you need.
