How old do you have to be to rent a car in Ithaca?
Drivers have to be at least 18. But there are a handful of age-related rules you should bear in mind before you reserve your Ithaca wheels. If you’re a younger driver, most home outlets will charge an extra fee and limit the types of vehicles you can rent. The surcharge amount, and which ages it applies to, varies between companies. It’s always a good idea to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Ithaca?
Most home companies will require two things — a current driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you’d like to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring with you to the home counter.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Ithaca?
Yes, and the great news is companies often offer lower prices the longer your home term. Check out our long-term car rental deals in Ithaca and drive off with an amazing bargain.
Where can I find an Ithaca car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the holiday home car companies operating in Ithaca. They often have different age policies. If you’ve found a supplier that does cater to drivers under the age of 25 take note that additional fees may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before picking up the keys to your vehicle.
Can I drive in Ithaca with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the United States, you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, be aware that you’ll also have to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the car rental company before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car. Please read the regulations before booking!
