Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Kensington car reservation?
We know that plans change and flexibility is important. That's why the majority of prepaid rentals offer a full refund if you cancel six hours ahead of picking up the car. You may want to read over your policy though as there are some exclusions. If you can't find the answer there, have a look on our Customer Service Portal.

Premium, full-size, intermediate ... Whatever you prefer! However, compact models are the most popular in Kensington. If you're searching for something affordable and small, but not too small, this rental car category is the ideal choice. Driving around busy streets will be easy in one of these. Compact vehicles are a little roomier compared to economy models and are well-suited to families on a budget, couples or solo travellers.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Kensington?
If you're aged 21 and over, you can rent a vehicle in Kensington. Keep in mind that most rental suppliers will charge young drivers an additional fee, which helps cover the higher damage risk involved. Also, young motorists are generally restricted from renting luxury cars or larger vehicles. Take note of the fine print before you book to avoid any surprises when it's time to pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Kensington?
Most rental companies will need these two things — your driver's licence and credit card. If you want to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Check 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 Kensington?
Yes, so you won't have to rebook a rental vehicle halfway through your holiday. Check out our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and lock in a set of wheels that's all yours for however long you want.
Where can I find a Kensington car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether or not you can rent a car if you're under 25 years in Kensington often depends on the rental provider you choose. Some places have a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24 years old, yet other companies may not have any extra costs for this age bracket. Be sure to go through the terms and conditions of your chosen car rental dealer to escape extra charges on pickup.
