Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Public car reservation?
We understand that having the freedom to change your plans is important. That’s why the majority of reservations offer a total refund if you cancel at least six hours prior to collecting the car. It’s a good idea to check your rental policy though as there are some exceptions. If the information isn’t there, have a look on our Customer Service Portal.

What do you need to rent a car in Public?
Before you can hit the road in Public, you’ll need a valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. If you don’t take out the rental company’s insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of other coverage. Rules can vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you choose a rental provider.

Where can I find a Public car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to check the age policy of the Public rental suppliers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 years of age, some companies will charge extra fees. It’s handy to know this in advance so you can have the funds ready. Each rental car company has its own policies for young drivers, so do your research.
