What types of cars can I rent in Merced?

  • Head off to San Francisco for a fun-filled sightseeing experience. Around 110 miles from Merced, it's home to lots of amazing sights like Pier 39.
  • Your next pit stop? It has to be Palo Alto, which is around 90 miles away. Stanford University is one local hot spot you really shouldn't miss.

How old do you have to be to hire a car in Merced?
Drivers aged 21 and above can go road-tripping around Merced in a rental vehicle. If you're a young driver, a daily surcharge applies. You'll generally be restricted to a few car categories, such as economy and mid-size, and may also have to take out inclusive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any restrictions apply.
What do you need to hire a car in Merced?
You'll need to present a valid driver's license and a credit card when you get to the rental counter. Before pick-up, check with your hire supplier whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to show proof of auto insurance.

Can I hire a car for a month or longer in Merced?
Yes. We partner with trusted companies that offer weekly and monthly hires for many car categories. Pick up one of our long-term car hire deals and discover every inch of Merced — or far beyond!
Where can I find a Merced hire car if I am younger than 25?
Whether or not you can hire a car if you are under 25 years old in Merced often depends on the hire company you select. Some businesses apply a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years old, yet other companies may not have any extra fees for this age bracket. Ensure you understand the terms and conditions of your prospective rental dealer to escape extra charges on pick-up.
Can I drive in Merced with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license from the United States, then you might need to organise 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, note that you'll also need to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car 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 in order to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the hire car company before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your hired vehicle. Please read the details before you book!
