Drive around this city in one of these and you'll be able to park in tight spaces and easily dart around busy streets. A compact is ideal for city getaways or quick road trips. But they're not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy ride or stretch out in a full-size or premium — there's a style of vehicle to suit you!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Wood River?
Generally, the requirement is 21 years of age and over in Wood River. You should be aware that most outlets will apply a young renter surcharge.

What do you need to rent a car in Wood River?
A current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? If that's the case, you may need proof of your own coverage. Rules can differ between providers, so read your policy thoroughly.
