Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Northern Illinois car reservation?
We've all been faced with times when plans get upended. That's why we provide a full refund on most prepaid rentals if you cancel at least six hours before picking up the car. Don't forget to double-check the rental agreement — there are some cases where it's not offered. Found nothing there? Our Customer Service Portal is always available to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Northern Illinois?
Keep it simple with an economy, splash out on a premium ride or choose something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to beat a compact vehicle — the most commonly booked rental type in Northern Illinois. They're a joy to park and handle, fuel-efficient and a great idea if you're driving around bustling cities. A step up from economy, you can expect slightly more comfort and room at a price that's still nice.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Northern Illinois?
The minimum age to rent a car in Northern Illinois is 21. An extra fee for young drivers generally applies, so check before booking and budget for any additional costs. There could also be restrictions on the car categories that can be rented by young drivers. For example, some outlets will only rent out small to medium-sized cars to young motorists. Rules may be different between providers, so be sure to read the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Northern Illinois?
The main things are a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of other coverage if you choose to opt out. Check with your rental provider to avoid any issues.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Northern Illinois?
Yes, and you can find your ideal set of wheels among our long-term car rental deals. Simply enter your trip dates and we'll list excellent offers from numerous leading providers.
Where can I find a Northern Illinois car rental if I am younger than 25?
Renting a vehicle if you are under 25 years old in Northern Illinois often depends on the rental supplier you select. Some businesses have a surcharge for young drivers aged between 21 and 24 years, yet other companies may not apply any extra costs for this age bracket. Make sure you read the terms and conditions of your selected car rental dealer to avoid any surprise charges when picking up your keys.
