How old do you have to be to rent a car in Ulsta?
Ulsta requires drivers to be 21 and over to be able to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect an extra cost and some restrictions on choice. Many companies impose a young renter fee on top of the standard car rental rate. This helps cover the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like economy and compact) are available to young drivers, restrictions usually apply to luxury and specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Ulsta?
The essentials are a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you choose to opt out. Check with your rental agency to avoid any problems.
What side of the road do you drive on in Ulsta?
If you're renting a car in Ulsta or road-tripping around Scotland, get ready to drive on the left-hand side. Also, the steering wheel will be on the opposite side of what you're used to in the U.S. This may take a while to get the hang of, so take things slow to begin with.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Ulsta?
You can rent a car for a month or longer in Ulsta, so go ahead and extend your hard-earned holiday! Just enter your trip details into our long-term car rental deals page and secure your ideal ride.
Where can I find a Ulsta car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so you'll have to do a little research. Managed to find a Ulsta outlet that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Great! Just bear in mind that extra charges often apply to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're looking at should have all the details you need.
