What happens if I need to cancel my Ashburton car reservation?
We've got good news! You should get a complete refund if you cancel at least six hours before the scheduled pickup time. Your confirmation contains details about this, and so does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid bookings will receive a refund though, so it's a good idea to scan your policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Ashburton?
Affordable, easy to drive and great on mileage, it's no coincidence that compact cars are the most sought-after rental category in Ashburton. Drive around this city in one of these and you'll be able to park in tight spaces and easily navigate traffic. A compact is ideal for city getaways or shorter road trips. But they're not your only choice. Go even smaller with an economy model or stretch out in an intermediate, a full-size or premium — the choice is yours!

Higher limits are in place for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to rent a car in Ashburton?
Most rental companies will ask for these two things — your driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you want to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.

Where can I find an Ashburton car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so you'll have to do a bit of homework. Found an Ashburton outlet that does rent to under 25s? Great! Just keep in mind that extra charges often apply to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're interested in will have all the information you need.
