Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Canterbury car reservation?
There are always times when even our best-laid plans get upended. That’s why we give a full refund on the majority of rentals if you notify us six hours ahead of the scheduled collection time. Don’t forget to double-check your rental policy — there are some instances where it’s not offered. Found nothing there? Our Customer Service Portal has more useful information.
What types of cars can I rent in Canterbury?
Not too small yet not too big, compact vehicles are the number one choice for many travellers to Canterbury. Featuring excellent mileage and easy manoeuvrability and parking, they’re ideal for travelling around the city.

What do you need to rent a car in Canterbury?
Before you can road trip around Canterbury, you’ll need a driver’s license and a credit card that matches the name on your license.
