How old do you have to be to rent a car in Widnes?
If you're 21 and above, you can rent a vehicle in Widnes. Be aware that rental outlets will charge young drivers an extra fee, which is meant to cover the higher accident or damage risk involved.

What do you need to rent a car in Widnes?
A valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? Then you may also need proof of your own coverage. Requirements can differ between providers, so be sure to read through your policy.
