Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Ballard car reservation?
We all have times when plans get upended. That's why we offer your money back on most prepaid bookings if you notify us at least six hours prior to picking up the car. Be sure to double-check your policy — there are some cases where it's not available. Can't find the details there? Our Customer Service Portal has more useful information.

Compact, full-size and premium vehicles are among your options.

There could also be restrictions on the types of cars that can be rented by young drivers. For instance, some providers will only rent out economy, compact and medium-sized cars to young motorists. Rules may be different between outlets, so read the fine print carefully.
What do you need to rent a car in Ballard?
While requirements may differ between rental car outlets in Ballard, the two main things you'll need are a current driver's licence and a credit card in your name. You don't need to take out insurance with your rental company. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Ballard?
Yes, so you won't have to rebook a rental car in the middle of your holiday. Go to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your information and find a ride to call your own for the next month or so.
Where can I find a Ballard car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver hoping to rent a car in Ballard, you'll need to check the policies of the various car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be additional costs if you're between 21 and 24 years old. To avoid any nasty surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
