How old do you have to be to rent a car in Thornton?
Drivers aged 21 and above can road trip around Thornton in a rental vehicle. If you're a young renter, a daily surcharge will apply. You'll generally have fewer car categories to select from, such as economy and compact, and may also have to purchase inclusive insurance. Always enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to learn if any restrictions apply to you.
What do you need to rent a car in Thornton?
Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — your driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you'd prefer to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your car.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Thornton?
Whether you plan to hang around Thornton or travel beyond, it's easy to reserve a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip dates and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll find you cheap long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Thornton car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do a little homework. Found a Thornton supplier that does rent to under 25s? Terrific! Just be aware that extra fees often apply to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're looking at should have all the information you need.
