Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Gainesville?
Fun road trip adventures await in Gainesville, with daily rental car rates starting from an impressive AU$70. That's based on prices found within the past seven days.
Can I rent a car from Gainesville, GA (GVL-Lee Gilmer Memorial)?
Enterprise is a short commute from the terminal and the only car rental outlet. Lock in your set of wheels as soon as you can to avoid missing out.
What happens if I need to cancel my Gainesville car reservation?
We all have times when plans suddenly change. That's why we provide a full refund on many prepaid rentals if cancelled six hours in advance of collecting the car. Be sure to double-check the rental agreement — there are some cases where it's not available. Can't find the details there? Our Customer Service Portal is always available to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Gainesville?
Keep costs low with an economy, splash out on a premium ride or choose something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to go past a compact vehicle — the top pick in Gainesville. They're a joy to handle and park, fuel-efficient and a smart idea if you're visiting busy cities. An upgrade from economy, you can expect a little more comfort and room at a price that's still nice.
Where can I go on a road trip from Gainesville?
After you've been to all of the amazing sights in Gainesville, there's loads more to see in the region. Pick up the keys to a rental car, pack your bags in the trunk and get out there. Here are some drives we know you'll enjoy:

  • Head to Asheville for a fun-filled sightseeing adventure. Roughly 193 kilometres from Gainesville, it's home to tons of amazing attractions, including Biltmore Estate.
  • About 80 kilometres away, Atlanta is also a hit with wanderers. Set aside time to experience Centennial Olympic Park while you're in town. It's one of the reasons people love visiting this thriving city.
  • Head to Belle Meade Plantation to rediscover nature. Take a picnic to enjoy or just relax and unwind. From Gainesville, it's around 338 kilometres away.

Why should I rent a Gainesville car with Expedia?
You'll pick up an amazing deal on your set of wheels with Expedia. Compact or full-size, you're sure to find your dream ride from one of the rental companies in Gainesville.

Whatever sort of ride you want, Expedia will help you pick up the best deal. Simply compare offers from well-known rental providers and book the option that's perfect for you. Like to hit the road with even more in your wallet? Bundle your Gainesville car rental with hotel or flight bookings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Gainesville?
Rental vehicle rules in Gainesville require drivers to be 21 and above. Are you a younger driver? Some restrictions and surcharges may apply. Rental suppliers impose what's known as a young driver surcharge, which is an extra fee to the cost of the rental car. Restrictions usually apply to the classes of cars available to young people as well. Age limits may vary between suppliers, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Gainesville?
Generally, you'll need a driver's licence and credit card in your name when collecting the keys to your vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be required if you'd prefer to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Requirements are likely to differ between providers, so it's always wise to check in advance.
What is the cheapest car rental in Gainesville?
AU$70 and AU$71 were the two lowest daily prices picked up by rental car customers in Gainesville within the past seven days. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental 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 Gainesville?
Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then secure a ride that suits. Whether you're staying put in Gainesville or venturing far beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at a fantastic rate.
Where can I find a Gainesville car rental if I am younger than 25?
Renting a car if you're under 25 years in Gainesville often depends on the rental company you select. Some places apply a surcharge for drivers between 21 and 24 years old, however others may not have any additional costs for this age group. Be sure to go through the terms and conditions of your prospective rental company to avoid extra costs at the rental desk.
Can I drive in Gainesville with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the U.S, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., know that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the car rental company before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car. Please read the regulations before you book!
