What types of cars can I rent in Joy?
Mini, economy, full-size, premium ... The choice is yours! However, compact models are the most popular in Joy. If you're after something economical and small, but not too small, this rental car category is a smart choice. Driving around bustling streets will be easy in one of these. Compact vehicles are a little roomier compared to economy rides and are well-suited to solo travellers, couples and families on a budget.
Where can I go on a road trip from Joy?
Joy is full of fun adventures, but don't restrict yourself to just one place. Grab a set of wheels and take to the road to discover what else awaits in the wider region. Here are some great options:

  • Head to Springfield for a fun-filled sightseeing adventure. Approximately 193 kilometres from Joy, it has numerous amazing sights such as Illinois State Fairgrounds.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Joy with Expedia?
Expedia makes it simple to compare costs, offers and providers, and to check customer reviews. Combine your Joy car rental with hotel or flight bookings and you'll save even more.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Joy?
Rental car rules in Joy require drivers to be 21 and over. Are you a younger driver? Surcharges and restrictions may apply. Rental suppliers impose what's known as a young renter surcharge, which is an extra fee to the car rental cost. Restrictions often apply to the types of cars young motorists can rent as well. Age limits may vary between companies, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Joy?
Most rental companies will require two things — your driver's licence and credit card. If you choose to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Joy?
Yes, which means you won't have to rebook a rental vehicle mid-holiday. Head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and lock in a ride that's all yours for the duration of your getaway.
Where can I find a Joy car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so you'll have to do a bit of research. Managed to find a Joy outlet that does rent to under 25s? Terrific! Just take note that extra charges often apply to drivers between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're considering will have all the details you need.
