What happens if I need to cancel my Petersburg car reservation?
We know that things can change at short notice. That's why many prepaid reservations allow for a total refund if you cancel a minimum of six hours before collecting the car. Your cancellation policy should contain all the information you need. If you can't find the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is always available.
What types of cars can I rent in Petersburg?
Dash around in a nifty mini, splash out on a premium ride or go for something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to go past a compact car — the top pick in Petersburg. They're a snap to handle and park, fuel-efficient and a great idea if you're visiting bustling cities. An upgrade from economy, you can expect a bit more room and comfort at a price that's still affordable.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Petersburg with Expedia?
Expedia makes it quick and easy to compare fees, offers and rental companies, and to check customer reviews. Bundle your Petersburg car rental with flight or hotel bookings to make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Petersburg?
In Petersburg, the rule is generally 21 and over. Most outlets will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can vary depending on the rental location. Rental agreements for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as large cars, and require the purchase of comprehensive insurance. It's always a good idea to read the fine print carefully before booking your ride.
What do you need to rent a car in Petersburg?
Two things — your driver's licence and a credit card in your name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you opt out. Make sure you check your policy terms and conditions to avoid any issues.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Petersburg?
Yes, which means you won't need to rebook a rental vehicle mid-holiday. Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and secure a ride to call your own for the length of your break.
Where can I find a Petersburg car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do a little shopping around. Managed to find a Petersburg supplier that does rent to drivers under 25? Awesome! Just be aware that some companies charge extra fees to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're interested in will have all the details you need.
