What types of cars can I rent in Charleston?
Mini, intermediate, full-size, premium ... The choice is yours! However, compact models are the most popular in Charleston. If you're looking for something inexpensive and small, but not too small, this home vehicle category is a great choice. Navigating busy streets will be easy in one of these. Compact cars are slightly more spacious than economy rides and are suited to families on a budget, couples or solo travellers.
Why should I rent a Charleston car with Expedia?
There are tons of reasons to book your wheels with Expedia. We have suppliers to take your pick of in Charleston, and we'll find you the best price with our exclusive offers and member prices.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Charleston with Expedia?
Check reviews and ratings, choose your favourite ride and compare offers from top providers. Expedia makes it easy to find the best deal on your home wheels. Bundle your Charleston car rental with hotel or flight bookings and drive away with extra savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Charleston?
Charleston requires drivers to be at least 21 before they can rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect a surcharge and some restrictions. Most suppliers impose a daily young renter fee on top of the normal car rental rate. This covers the higher risk of accident or damage. While many car classes (like economy and compact) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Charleston?
Renting a car in Charleston is a cinch. Generally, all you'll need is a valid driver's license and a credit card. Once you've found the perfect set of wheels, read your policy to ensure there are no further requirements prior to your scheduled pickup.
What side of the road do you drive on in Charleston?
People in Charleston drive on the left-hand side of the road, and the steering wheel and other controls are on the opposite side to U.S. Vehicles. Spend a bit of extra time getting acquainted with your new car before getting on the road.
What is the cheapest car rental in Charleston?
We looked into prices over the last seven days and found that the lowest daily rate was AU$65. The second lowest price for holiday home vehicles in Charleston was AU$95 a day. These rates were available on Expedia, with a holiday home starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Charleston?
Whether you plan to stay in Charleston or travel beyond, you can reserve a long-term holiday home with Expedia. Enter your trip dates and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll help you find incredible long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Charleston car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Charleston providers will rent cars to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll need to do some research. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
