How old do you have to be to rent a car in Maitland?
Drivers with a valid licence aged 21 and over can rent a car in Maitland. While some companies may be willing to accommodate drivers younger than 21, they will add on fees. Find out what ages the young driver surcharge applies to, and associated costs, before booking your wheels. Companies also restrict the categories of cars young drivers can rent. Higher age limits apply for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Maitland?
Most rental companies will ask for these two things — a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you want to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your wheels.
What side of the road do you drive on in Maitland?
In Maitland and across New Zealand, you'll need to drive on the left-hand side of the road. This can be daunting enough, but the steering wheel and other controls are also on the opposite side to the U.S. For a smooth and safe journey, take things slower and allow yourself extra time to reach your destination.

Click through to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then book your perfect ride. Whether you're basing yourself in Maitland or plan to journey beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at an amazing rate.
Where can I find a Maitland car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver looking for a car rental in Maitland, you'll need 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 on pickup, make sure you do your research.
