What's the age requirement to rent a car in Hickory?

Generally, the age limit for renting a car in Hickory is 21—the same as it is across the rest of the USA. Additionally, many suppliers charge an extra fee if you are under 25. Be sure to review the rental agreement to find what the exact price will be before you book your rental.

Is insurance required to rent a car in Hickory?

Insurance is always required, no matter where you're renting a car. That said, you might already be covered by your existing car or credit card policies. Keep in mind, those policies may not cover you 100%, and you'll have to add it on to your booking. Check ahead of time and, if it's needed, you can simply include it at the CarRentals.com checkout.

Are there different fuel policies?

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

What fuel policy do you recommend?

Most rental car suppliers provide you a full tank policy. We suggest bringing it back topped off. If you want to keep your expenses lower, find a gas station before you bring your car back. Stations near airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

Is it worth getting unlimited miles?

If you plan to check out all that Hickory and maybe even the rest of North Carolina offers, you are going to need unlimited miles. You can drive as far as you'd like without worrying about additional fees. Go over the fine print to make sure they are truly "unlimited."

Know before you go

Be sure you check out a few items prior to leaving the rental lot on your Hickory adventure. It's important to:

• Check out the vehicle and be sure there is no damage or scrapes. If you notice any, write it down on the paperwork
• Inspect the trunk to see if the spare is properly inflated and the jack and lung wrench are there
• Familiarize yourself with the car. Adjust the mirrors and seats to your liking, and figure out how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
• Get comfortable operating the radio or entertainment features. You don't want any unneeded distractions in a new city
