How old do you have to be to rent a car in Wellington?
Home vehicle rules in Wellington require drivers to be at least 21. Are you a young driver? Some surcharges and restrictions could apply. Many home companies impose what is known as a young renter surcharge, which is an additional fee to the rental car cost. Restrictions usually apply to the classes of cars young drivers can rent as well. Age limits may vary between providers, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Wellington?
Before you can hit the road in Wellington, you'll need a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name. If you don't take out the home company's insurance policy, you may also have to show proof of your own coverage. Requirements can vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you choose a home company.
What side of the road do you drive on in Wellington?
Motorists in Wellington drive on the left, and the steering wheel and other controls are on the opposite side to U.S. Vehicles. Spend a bit of extra time familiarizing yourself with your new car before getting on the road.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Wellington?
Yes, and you're sure to find your perfect set of wheels on our long-term car rental deals page. Just enter your trip details and we'll show you incredible options from various reputable providers.
Where can I find a Wellington car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a car under the age of 25 in Wellington often depends on the holiday home provider you select. Some businesses have a surcharge for drivers aged between 21 and 24 years, yet others may not apply any additional fees for this age bracket. It'd be good to read the terms and conditions of your preferred holiday home company to escape any surprise charges at the holiday home desk.
