What age do you have to be to rent a car in Herndon?

Generally, to rent a car in Herndon you must be at least 21—the same as it is across the rest of the United States of America. Additionally, many suppliers charge an added fee if you are under 25.

Insurance is mandatory, no matter where you're renting a car. Nevertheless, your current car insurance may cover you.

Check ahead of time and, if it is necessary, you can conveniently include it at the CarRentals.com checkout.

What is the difference between all the fuel policies?

Most suppliers give you a choice of fuel policies. Below is a list of the most common ones.

We usually recommend that you opt for the full-to-full policy. This policy simply means you bring your rental back to the full, and you're all set.

Is it worth getting unlimited miles?

Unlimited mileage is a good choice for travelers who don't want to worry about watching the odometer their whole trip. Just make sure that your policy really provides unlimited miles. Read the details on mileage limits before you book.
