10 tips to save on your car hire in and around Genoa

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and specific features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it’s advisable to secure your booking well in advance of your trip. By reserving early, you are more likely to obtain lower rates and better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 years old may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or premium models—may not be available. This can also affect renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements before making a booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements require a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is usually the most favourable option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are acceptable as well—just ensure you return the car empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: You will often incur a surcharge for collecting your rental car at airports, but this may be worthwhile for the added convenience.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind in case something unforeseen occurs during your trip. It’s straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extended road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.

  • You'll find National Bowling Stadium and lots more amazing attractions in Reno. From Genoa, it's about 35 miles away.

How old do you have to be to hire a car in Genoa?
Anyone with a valid driver's license 21 and above can hire a car in Genoa. While some companies may be willing to accommodate drivers younger than 21, expect an extra fee. Find out what age range the young renter fee applies to, and what it costs, before reserving your ride. Outlets also restrict the types of cars young drivers can rent. Higher age limits apply for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to hire a car in Genoa?
Before you can get behind the wheel in Genoa, you'll need a driver's license and a credit card in the same name. If you decline to take out the company's insurance plan, you may also have to provide proof of your own coverage. Rules can vary, so read the policy terms and conditions before you choose a hire company.

Where can I find a Genoa hire car if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the rental car companies that are found in Genoa. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under 25, take note that extra costs may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before booking your rental car.
Can I drive in Genoa with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the U.S, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., note that you'll also need to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the car must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Some additional requirements for hiring a car in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states to hire a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your hire car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
