What types of cars can I rent in Southend?
Affordably priced, a cinch to handle and good on mileage, it’s not surprising compact cars are the most in-demand home type in Southend. Drive around this city in one of these and you’ll be able to park in tight spaces and easily navigate busy streets. A compact is perfect for city getaways 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!
Where can I go on a road trip from Southend?
Book some wheels, collect the keys and get set to discover the endless attractions of Southend. But with so many places to visit in the surrounding areas, that shouldn’t be the end of the road! Set your navigation system to some of the other happening places in the region:

  • Boasting attractions and experiences galore, Mount Gambier is about 64 kilometres from Southend. First stop on the list? Head straight for Blue Lake Reserve, one of the city’s biggest highlights.
  • About 64 kilometres away, Port Macdonnell is another location worth sticking on your road trip itinerary. Don’t forget to stop by Feasts Classic Car Collection and Memorabilia during your visit.
  • After all that time behind the wheel, treat yourself to a dose of fresh air at Great Otway National Park. It’s roughly 338 kilometres from Southend.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Southend?
In Southend, the rule is generally 21 years and over. Most outlets will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can differ based on the home location. Home policies for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as specialty cars, and require comprehensive insurance. Don’t forget to read the fine print before choosing your wheels.
What do you need to rent a car in Southend?
A valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Opting out of the company’s insurance plan? Then you may also need proof of other coverage. Rules may differ between suppliers, so read your policy thoroughly.
What side of the road do you drive on in Southend?
Unlike the United States, motorists in Southend drive on the left-hand side. Having the steering wheel and some controls on the opposite side can also take some getting used to. Spend some time familiarizing yourself with the car and its quirks before hitting the road.

Click on our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then secure a ride that suits. Whether you’re staying in Southend or exploring beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term holiday home at a fantastic rate.
Where can I find a Southend car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between holiday home suppliers, so be prepared to do a bit of research. Found a Southend outlet that does rent to under 25s? Terrific news! Just keep in mind that some companies charge additional fees to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each holiday home car you’re considering should have all the information you need.
