We try to get you the best rates, whether you book. But booking ahead of time can help keep spending low. Make sure to read the mileage policy and keeping it to one driver will reduce your expense.

What do I need to bring when I pick up my vehicle in Bakersfield?

Make sure to present your driver's license and a credit card in your name.

How old do I have to be to rent a car in Bakersfield?

Hertz's minimum age to rent a car in Bakersfield is 21. Some rentals, especially higher category vehicles, may have an additional fee if you are under 25. Make sure to review Hertz's policy to find out if there is an additional cost for you.

What kind of Hertz rental car should I get for my trip to Bakersfield?

That depends on your needs and what activities you want to do in Bakersfield. Economy or compact vehicles are ideal for short commutes and are easier to park. If you are traveling with coworkers, then a mid-size car or SUV will have more room for luggage and provide a more comfortable ride. Those looking for a touch of luxury on their Bakersfield trip can choose the premium category for a car like a Cadillac or Audi or similar.

Do I need insurance when I rent a car in the United States?

You are required to have insurance before you rent a car from Hertz in the United States. Although many of the major card issuers, like Visa or Discover, give some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For instance, you may not be covered if you book a larger or luxury vehicle. Make sure to check credit card issuer's policy before you decide. Otherwise, as a United States citizen, you can book Collision Damage Coverage through CarRentals.com at checkout.

Do I need to pay a deposit when I book my Hertz car rental?

Hertz requires a deposit when you reserve your rental. Hertz will block the deposit on your credit once you book your car for your trip. Please be aware that the deposit will vary greatly depending on the model and make of the rental.

What is the fuel policy on my Hertz car rental?

We advise a full tank policy. You receive the vehicle with the needle at "F". But, if you return the rental with less than the amount it was given to you, most companies will charge a premium to top it back off. If you want to keep your expenses lower, it is best to find a gas station before you return the car to Hertz.

Bakersfield has enough to keep you entertained, but you may want to head to nearby cities to see what else California has to offer. You can explore the rest of the area free of mileage limits once you've checked off all the activities in Bakersfield.
