How old do you have to be to hire a car in Swarthmore?
Swarthmore requires drivers to be 21 and above to be able to hire a car. However, young drivers can expect an extra cost and tighter hire conditions. Most companies impose a young renter fee on top of the car hire rate. This covers the extra risk of damage or accident. While many car classes (like mid-size and compact) are available to young renters, restrictions usually apply to premium and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Swarthmore?
While requirements may differ between car rental outlets, the two key things you’ll need are a valid driver’s license and a credit card. You don’t need to take out auto insurance with your rental provider. However, proof of alternative coverage may be necessary.

Where can I find a Swarthmore hire car if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a younger driver looking to hire a car in Swarthmore, we suggest reading the policies of the various car hire companies you’re interested in. Some may hire to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be extra costs if you’re aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any nasty surprises on pick-up, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
Can I drive in Swarthmore with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license issued in the United States, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, be aware that you’ll also have to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to hire the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Other things you should know about hiring a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car hire website before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your hire car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
