Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Salem?
You'll get bang for your buck in Salem, with car rental prices within the past seven days starting from as little as £45 a day.
Can I hire a car from Roanoke Regional Airport (ROA)?
You can rent a set of wheels from Enterprise, which is just a short commute from Roanoke Regional Airport (ROA).
What happens if I need to cancel my Salem car reservation?
We know that having a bit of wiggle room is important. That's why most reservations offer a complete refund if cancelled six hours in advance of pick-up. It's a good idea to check the policy though because there are some exclusions. If there's nothing specified there, have a look on our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in Salem?
Most visitors opt for economy vehicles in Salem. Drivers love them because they're affordable and fuel-efficient. Plus, their small size makes them ideal for darting around cities, where streets are busy and parking spots are tight. But your options don't stop there. Compacts, full-size cars and SUVs are part of our hire range too. Whether you're sticking around Salem or journeying beyond, we'll have a ride that suits your needs.
Where can I go on a road trip from Salem?
When you've been to all of the fabulous attractions in Salem, there's heaps more to discover in the surrounding region. Grab the keys to a rental car, pack your bags in the trunk and get on the road. These are some road trips we think you'll love:

  • You'll discover University of North Carolina and loads more intriguing sights in Chapel Hill. From Salem, it's roughly 110 miles away.
  • Your next pit stop? Make it Greensboro, which is around 85 miles away. Greensboro Coliseum is one local hot spot you won't want to miss.

Whatever kind of ride you're searching for, Expedia will help you score the best deal. Just compare the offers from top rental suppliers and pick the option that suits you. Love to hit the road with even more in your wallet? Bundle your Salem car hire with flight or hotel bookings.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Salem?
Drivers have to be at least 21. But there are some age-related restrictions to be aware of before you reserve your wheels in Salem. If you're a younger driver, many rental providers will charge an additional fee and limit the kinds of cars you're able to rent. The precise surcharge, and which ages it applies to, differs between suppliers. Take your time to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Salem?
A current driver's license and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? Then there's a good chance you'll also need proof of other coverage. Rules can differ between rental suppliers, so read your policy thoroughly.
What is the cheapest car hire in Salem?
The two lowest daily prices on offer in Salem within the past seven days were £45 and £46. Now that's what we'd call a great deal! 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 Salem?
Yes, so you won't need to rebook a hire vehicle in the middle of your holiday. Head over to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and lock in a set of wheels to call your own for the length of your break.
Where can I find a Salem hire car if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver hoping to rent a vehicle in Salem, we recommend checking the policies of the various rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be additional fees if you're aged between 21 and 24. To escape any unpleasant surprises at the hire desk, make sure you do your research.
Can I drive in Salem with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the United States, you may be required to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the car hire process. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, be aware that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the car needs to 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 most states to be able to hire a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car hire. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
