Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Central Chicago car reservation?
If you need to make changes to your itinerary, almost all prepaid rentals are eligible for a total refund. Just advise us a minimum of six hours prior to the scheduled collection time. Double-check your agreement for any exclusions. Your itinerary will have more details, or you can visit our Customer Service Portal for more information.
What types of cars can I rent in Central Chicago?
Not too small yet not too big, compact cars are the top pick for many rental customers in Central Chicago. Featuring superb mileage and easy manoeuvrability and parking, they're well-suited to exploring the city. A compact car is slightly more spacious than an economy vehicle, so you can cruise around in a bit more comfort and style. Prefer a bit more legroom? Check out our standard, intermediate and full-size options.
How do I find the best car rental deals in Central Chicago with Expedia?
Check out customer reviews and ratings, choose your favourite ride and compare offers from top suppliers. Expedia makes it easy to score the best deal on your rental wheels. Combine your Central Chicago car rental with flight or hotel bookings and drive away with even more in your wallet.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Central Chicago?
Usually, you need to be 21 years and over in Central Chicago. It's worth noting that most outlets will apply a young renter surcharge. Read the fine print before you book, as different rules may apply between rental car providers. Keep in mind that if you're planning to rent a luxury ride or a larger car like a premium SUV, drivers may need to be older than 21.
What do you need to rent a car in Central Chicago?
Most rental companies will ask for these two things — your driver's licence and credit card. 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 collect your wheels.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Central Chicago?
Yes, and the awesome news is suppliers often offer lower prices the longer your rental term. Check out our long-term car rental deals in Central Chicago and cruise away with an impressive bargain.
Where can I find a Central Chicago car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do a bit of research. Found a Central Chicago supplier that does rent to drivers under 25? Terrific! Just be aware that extra fees often apply to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're interested in will have all the information you need.
