How do I find the best car rental deals in Salem with Expedia?
Expedia makes it easy and fast to compare rates, offers and providers, and to check customer recommendations. Combine your Salem car rental with hotel or flight bookings to make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Salem?
Rental vehicle rules in Salem require drivers to be 21 and older. Are you a younger driver? Surcharges and restrictions may apply. Most rental providers impose what's known as a young driver surcharge, which is an extra fee to the rental car cost. Restrictions usually apply to the sorts of cars available to young motorists as well. Age limits may differ between suppliers, so check before you book.
What do you need to rent a car in Salem?
Your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are necessities. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? If that's the case, you may need proof of other coverage. Rules may differ from rental company to rental company, so be sure to read through your policy.
What is the cheapest car rental in Salem?
The lowest price for a rental car in Salem within the past seven days was just AU$108 per day. The second best deal to be had was AU$116. 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 Salem?
You can, and the great news is providers often offer lower prices the longer you rent. Discover our long-term car rental deals in Salem and drive off with an incredible bargain.
Where can I find a Salem car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental suppliers, so be prepared to do some research. Found a Salem outlet that does rent to under 25s? Terrific! Just be aware that a surcharge often applies to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're interested in should have all the details you need.
Can I drive in Salem with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the United States, then you may need 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, note that you'll also need to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car rental company before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: 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 go off-roading with your home. Please read the details before you book!
