How do I find the best car hire deals in Wilmington with Expedia?
Expedia makes it easy to compare rates, offers and rental providers, and to check reviews. Combine your Wilmington car hire with flight or hotel bookings and you can make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Wilmington?
Wilmington requires drivers to be 21 and above to hire a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to a surcharge and some choice restrictions. Most providers impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the standard hire car rate. This helps cover the higher risk of accident or damage. While many car categories (like compact and mid-size) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to premium and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to hire a car in Wilmington?

Can I hire a car for a month or longer in Wilmington?

Where can I find a Wilmington hire car if I am younger than 25?
Some Wilmington outlets will hire to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Policies differ between suppliers, so be prepared to do some research. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some outlets will apply a surcharge to young drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
Can I drive in Wilmington with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the car must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for car hire in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as the hire car website before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with a hired car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
