Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from John Glenn Columbus Intl. Airport (CMH)?
Land at John Glenn Columbus Intl. Airport (CMH) and then head for Hertz or Enterprise, both a short distance away. You'll be exploring Newark in your rental in no time at all.
What happens if I need to cancel my Newark car reservation?
There are always times when plans get upended. That's why we offer a full refund on many prepaid rentals if you let us know at least six hours before the pickup time. Be sure to double-check your rental agreement — there are some cases where it's not an option. Can't find anything there? Our Customer Service Portal is always available to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Newark?
Reasonably priced, easy to drive and good on mileage, it's not surprising compact vehicles are the most sought-after rental category in Newark. Drive around this city in one of these and you'll be able to fit into tight parking spaces and easily manoeuvre busy streets. A compact is perfect for city breaks or shorter road trips. But they're not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy model or bigger with an intermediate, a full-size or premium — there's a style of vehicle to suit you!
Where can I go on a road trip from Newark?
Newark is full of surprises, but don't restrict yourself to just the one place. Grab a set of wheels and hit the road to discover what else awaits in the wider area. Here are a few ideas:

  • Columbus is about 48 kilometres from Newark. Top-rated sights like Ohio Stadium deserve a place on your must-see list here.
  • Why not see everything on offer in Akron too? Major sights to see here include Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens. Akron is roughly 137 kilometres from Newark.
  • Venture into the great outdoors and take in the serenity at Geneva State Park. It's 225 kilometres from Newark.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Newark?
Rental car rules in Newark require drivers to be 21 and above. Are you a young driver? Some surcharges and restrictions could apply. Rental outlets impose what's known as a young driver surcharge, which is an extra fee to the rental car cost. Restrictions often apply to the classes of cars available to young people as well. Age limits may vary between outlets, so check before you book.
What do you need to rent a car in Newark?
Before you can hop behind the wheel in Newark, you'll need a driver's licence and a credit card. If you prefer not to take out the rental company's insurance plan, you may also have to provide proof of other coverage. Rules can vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you select a rental provider.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Newark?
Check out our long-term car rental deals page, enter your preferences and then lock in your perfect ride. Whether you're staying in Newark or venturing far beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at a fabulous rate.
Where can I find a Newark car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver looking for a rental in Newark, we suggest reading the terms and conditions of the various car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be surcharges if you're between 21 and 24 years old. To avoid any unwanted surprises at the rental desk, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
