How old do you have to be to rent a car in The Neck?
Usually, the requirement is 21 years and over in The Neck. It's important to note that most outlets will charge a young driver fee. Read the fine print before you book your ride, as different rules may apply between rental car providers.

What do you need to rent a car in The Neck?
You'll need to present your driver's licence and a credit card in your name when you get to the rental counter. Prior to pickup, check with your rental provider whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to show proof of auto insurance.
What side of the road do you drive on in The Neck?
If you're renting a car in The Neck or road-tripping around New Zealand, remember that you'll be driving on the left side of the road. Also, the steering wheel and some controls will be on a different side to what you're accustomed to in the U.S. This may take a while to get the hang of, so drive with extra caution.

Check out our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip details and then secure your perfect ride. Whether you're stopping in The Neck or road-tripping around, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at an awesome rate.
Where can I find a The Neck car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so be prepared to do a bit of shopping around. Found a The Neck supplier that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Great! Just keep in mind that a surcharge often applies to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're considering will have all the information you need.
