Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Tupelo Regional Airport (TUP)?
Make a speedy getaway from Tupelo Regional Airport (TUP) and rent a vehicle from Hertz. This car rental outlet is a short commute from the terminal.
What happens if I need to cancel my Houston car reservation?
We get that things change unexpectedly. That's why the majority of prepaid rentals offer a refund if you cancel at least six hours before the scheduled collection time. Your rental agreement should include all the specifics you need. If you can't see the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is always available.
What types of cars can I rent in Houston?
Reasonably priced, a breeze to handle and fuel-efficient, it's little wonder compact vehicles are the most commonly booked type of rental in Houston. Drive around this city in one of these and you'll be able to fit into tight parking spaces and easily navigate traffic. A compact is ideal for city escapes or short road trips. But they're not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy ride or bigger with an intermediate, a full-size or premium — the choice is all yours!
Where can I go on a road trip from Houston?
Houston is full of adventures, but don't limit yourself to only one place. Pick up a set of wheels and head off to explore the wider area. Here are a few places to choose from:

  • Head off to Memphis for a fun-filled sightseeing experience. Approximately 177 kilometres from Houston, it's home to loads of great sights like Graceland.
  • Why not see everything on offer in Tuscaloosa too? Top tourist attractions in this happening city include Bryant-Denny Stadium. Tuscaloosa is roughly 153 kilometres from Houston.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Houston?
You have to be at least 21. But there are a handful of age-related requirements you should keep in mind before locking in your wheels in Houston. If you're a younger motorist, rental providers will likely charge an additional daily fee and limit the sorts of cars you can rent. The exact surcharge, and which age range it applies to, varies between outlets. Take a moment to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Houston?
Any rental company you choose will need these two things — your driver's licence and credit card. 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 thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up the keys.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Houston?
Click on our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then secure your ideal ride. Whether you're basing yourself in Houston or road-tripping about, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at an incredible rate.
Where can I find a Houston car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies that operate in Houston. They often have different age policies. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, take note that extra costs may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before picking up your vehicle.
