How old do you have to be to rent a car in Charlestown?
The minimum age is 21. But there are several age-related rules you should bear in mind before you reserve your Charlestown wheels. If you're a young driver, many home outlets will charge an additional fee and limit the types of cars you're able to rent. This size of the surcharge, and which age range it applies to, differs between providers. Take the time to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Charlestown?
Before you can hop behind the wheel in Charlestown, you'll need a valid driver's license and a credit card that matches the name on your license. If you don't take out the home company's insurance policy, you may also have to show proof of your own coverage. Rules can vary, so read the policy terms and conditions before you choose a home supplier.
What side of the road do you drive on in Charlestown?
In Charlestown, like the rest of Australia, you drive on the left-hand side. Go slower to build confidence driving on the left if it's your first time.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Charlestown?
Yes, so you won't have to rebook a holiday home car in the middle of your holiday. Go to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and find a ride to call your own for the duration of your getaway.
Where can I find a Charlestown car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver hoping to rent a vehicle in Charlestown, we suggest reading the terms and conditions of the holiday home companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25  some may not. There may be additional fees if you're between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any nasty surprises on pickup, make sure you do your research.
