Remember to double-check your rental policy — there are some cases where it's not an option. Can't find the details there? Our Customer Service Portal is always here to help.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Franklin with Expedia?
Expedia makes it easy to compare costs, offers and rental providers, and to check reviews. Combine your Franklin car rental with flight or hotel bookings and you can save even more.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Franklin?
Franklin requires drivers to be 21 and over to rent a car. However, young drivers can expect a surcharge and stricter rental conditions. Most companies impose a daily young renter fee on top of the standard car rental rate. This covers the extra risk of accident or damage. While many car categories (like economy and compact) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to premium and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Franklin?
Any rental company you choose will require two things — a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you choose to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your wheels.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Franklin?
You can. We partner with trusted companies that offer weekly and monthly rentals for all categories of cars. Pick up one of our long-term car rental deals and explore every nook and cranny of Franklin — or far beyond!
Where can I find a Franklin car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Franklin rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years old, some companies will charge extra costs. It's better to know about this before arriving at the desk so you can have the funds ready. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for young drivers, so it'd be wise to do your research.
