What types of cars can I rent in Orange County?
Affordability, ease of parking and superb mileage are among the reasons compact vehicles are the top choice in Orange County. Their small size makes them perfect for getting around the city. They're a great option for solo travellers, couples or budget-conscious motorists. Of course, how you cruise around is totally up to you! Go even smaller with a mini or economy, or give yourself more space with a full-size or an intermediate. Chasing a little luxury? Browse our premium rides.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Orange County?
The minimum age to rent a vehicle in Orange County is 21. A surcharge for young drivers will apply, so check before you book and take into account any extra costs. There could also be restrictions on the types of vehicles available to young drivers. For instance, some outlets will only rent out small and medium-sized cars to less-experienced motorists. Rules may be different between providers, so read the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Orange County?
Any rental company you select will need these two things — a current driver's licence 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 your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Orange County?
Head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then reserve your perfect ride. Whether you're stopping in Orange County or road-tripping about, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at a fantastic rate.
Where can I find a Orange County car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Orange County outlets will rent cars to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll have to do some research. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
