What do I need have with me when I pick up my car rental in Oakland?

Be sure to bring your driver's license and a credit card in your name.

What's Oakland's minimum age to rent a car?

Hertz's minimum age to rent a car in Oakland is 21. Some rentals, especially higher category vehicles, may have an additional fee if you are under 25. Take time to go over Hertz's policy to know what the total cost is before you book.

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

That depends on how many people you are traveling with and what activities you want to do in Oakland. Compact or economy vehicles are great for short drives and are easier to park. Commute times in Oakland average 26 minutes, so you may find a mid-size vehicle or SUV more comfortable. If you want to lower your emissions and save on gas, then choose a hybrid vehicle. Those looking for a dash of extravagance on their Oakland vacation can choose a higher-end car model like a Mercedes C-Class or Cadillac XTS or similar.

Does the United States require car insurance?

In the United States you do need to have insurance before you rent from Hertz. Although many of the major card issuers, like Visa or Discover, offer some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For instance, they may not cover your rental car if you book a larger or luxury vehicle. Make sure to check credit card issuer's policy before you decide.

What is the fuel policy on my Hertz car rental?

We suggest a full to full policy. You pick up your Hertz rental with a full tank. But, if you return your rental with less than the amount that you received it with, most companies will charge a premium to top it back off. If you want to save some money, it is best to fill up your tank before you bring it back to Hertz. Stations near or around airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

Oakland has lots to keep you entertained, but you may want to drive to nearby cities to see what else California has to offer.
