Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Dayton car reservation?
We appreciate that things change unexpectedly. That's why many bookings offer a refund if you cancel six hours prior to pickup. Your cancellation policy should have all the details you need. If you can't see the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is always here to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Dayton?
Not too small and not too big, compact vehicles are the top choice for many travellers to Dayton. Featuring great gas mileage and easy parking and manoeuvrability, they're perfect for exploring the city. A compact is roomier than an economy vehicle, which means you can cruise around in a little more comfort. Need a bit more legroom? Check out our intermediate, standard or full-size range.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Dayton?
Usually, the requirement is 21 years of age and over in Dayton. It should be pointed out that most companies will charge a young driver fee. Read the fine print before you book, as different rules may apply between rental car suppliers. Keep in mind that if you're planning to rent a luxury vehicle or a larger car like an SUV, drivers may need to be older than 21.
What do you need to rent a car in Dayton?
Be prepared to present a valid driver's licence and a credit card at the rental counter. Before pickup, check with your selected rental company whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to show proof of auto insurance.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Dayton?
Yes, so you won't need to rebook a rental car in the middle of your holiday. Head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and lock in a ride to call your own for the length of your break.
Where can I find a Dayton car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver hoping to rent a vehicle in Dayton, it'd be wise to check the policies of the various rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be additional fees if you're between 21 and 24 years old. To escape any surprise fees and charges at the rental counter, make sure you do your research.
