Guide
Minimum age and years with a licence
Each rental company decides from what age and after how many years of holding a licence you can rent. Some rent from 18, many only from 21 or older, and often even later for more powerful cars. The licence-held-since filter quickly shows which offers are right for you.
Deposit without a credit card
Many young people don't have a credit card, but that doesn't have to be a problem. Depending on the vehicle, you can pay the deposit online by PayPal or bank transfer or in cash at pick-up. Some rental companies offer vehicles with no deposit at all. Simply filter by deposit type in the app.
Moving flats with a small van
For moving into a new room, a small van that you can drive on a category B licence is often enough. Organise helpers and boxes in advance, and the 8-hour hourly rate might be all you need. Vans are in demand at the start of term and at the end of each month, so it pays to request early.
