What do you need to rent a car in Charleston?
Most of the time, all you’ll need is a driver’s license and a credit card in the same name when collecting the vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be required if you decide to opt out of the company’s insurance plan. Rules often differ between rental companies, so it’s wise to check before you book.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Charleston?
Yes, so there’s no need to rebook a rental vehicle in the middle of your vacation. Click through to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your information and find a set of wheels to call your own for the next month or so.
Where can I find a Charleston car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver looking for a rental in Charleston, you’ll need to check the policies of the various car rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be surcharges if you’re between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any surprise fees and charges at the rental desk, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
