How do I find the best car hire deals in Madison with Expedia?
Expedia makes it quick and easy to compare fees, offers and hire companies, and to check customer recommendations. Bundle your Madison car hire with hotel or flight bookings and you'll make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Madison?
Madison requires drivers to be 21 and over to hire a car. However, young drivers can expect an extra cost and tighter hire conditions. Most providers impose a young renter fee in addition to the usual rental rate. This covers the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and economy) are available to young renters, restrictions usually apply to premium and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Madison?
A valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name are necessities. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? In that case, you're also likely to need proof of your own coverage. Requirements can differ between rental companies, so read your policy thoroughly.
What is the cheapest car rental in Madison?
Madison has had some very happy car renters lately. Daily prices within the past seven days dropped as low as £60 and £61. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I hire a car for a month or longer in Madison?
Yes. We partner with quality providers that offer long-term hires for many categories of cars. Head to our long-term car rental deals and explore every square inch of Madison --- or way beyond!
Where can I find a Madison hire car if I am younger than 25?
Some Madison outlets will rent to drivers under 25, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll have to do some research. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some places will apply a surcharge to young drivers between 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
Can I drive in Madison with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the United States, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, know that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Other things you should know about hire cars in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in many states to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car hire website before your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with a hired car. Please read the details before booking!
