Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Oyster car reservation?
Our Customer Service Portal has all the details about cancellations. In nearly all cases, complete refunds are provided if a booking is cancelled at least six hours ahead of the arranged pickup time. Be sure to read the rental agreement to see if there are any exclusions.
What types of cars can I rent in Oyster?
Dart around in a mini, style it up in a premium ride or choose something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to go past a compact car — the top choice in Oyster. They're easy to handle and park, fuel-efficient and a great idea if you're driving around cities. An upgrade from economy, you can expect slightly more comfort and room at a price that's still nice.
Where can I go on a road trip from Oyster?
Oyster is full of fun adventures, but don't restrict yourself to only one place. Book a set of wheels and hit the road to explore the wider region. Here are a few ideas:

  • Head off to Richmond for an excellent sightseeing adventure. Roughly 137 kilometres from Oyster, it's home to many amazing sights, including Richmond Raceway.
  • Why not see everything on offer in Alexandria too? Popular attractions in this colourful city include George Washington Masonic National Memorial. Alexandria is 193 kilometres from Oyster.
  • Longwood Gardens is approximately 290 kilometres from Oyster and is one of the region's most breathtaking nature spots. Go for a walk around and enjoy the fresh air.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Oyster?
Oyster rules state drivers must be 21 and over to be able to rent a car. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra charge and stricter rental conditions. Most suppliers impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the standard car rental rate. This helps cover the higher risk of accident or damage. While many car classes (like economy and compact) are available to young renters, restrictions usually apply to luxury cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Oyster?
Most of the time, all you'll need is a current driver's licence and credit card in your name when collecting your car. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you choose to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Rules may differ between rental companies, so it's always wise to check in advance.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Oyster?
You can rent a car for a month or longer in Oyster, so go on and extend your hard-earned holiday! Just enter your trip details into our long-term car rental deals page and book your ideal ride.
Where can I find an Oyster car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver looking to rent a car in Oyster, we suggest reading the policies of the car 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 nasty surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
