What types and makes of rental cars are on offer in Oregon?

That depends on your needs and what you'll be doing when you visit Oregon. If you're having trouble deciding, be sure to go over the chart below. We have compared the most popular vehicle categories for you:

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

Typically, the age limit for renting a car in Oregon is 21. Please note, you may find that there is an added charge if you're under 25 or for higher category cars in particular. Read over the terms to find what any additional fees will be before you book your car.

Do I need insurance to rent a car in Oregon?

When driving in Oregon or the rest of the United States, you will need insurance. Many suppliers need proof of insurance before you pick up your vehicle. The majority of countries require the driver to have insurance. You may be able to buy additional insurance through the rental car dealer, if you know your insurance won't cover your rental. Otherwise, as a U.S. citizen, you can also add on Collision Damage Coverage through CarRentals.com at checkout.

The major credit cards (American Express, Visa, MasterCard, and Discover) will typically cover your car rental. But many of them have restrictions, such as not covering larger vehicles like premium models or some SUVs. Make sure to find out exactly what your credit card will cover and how much before you head to Oregon.

Are there different fuel policies?

Most suppliers allow you to choose which policy you want. Below is a list of the most common ones.

What fuel policy should I get?

Most suppliers provide you a full to full tank policy. We encourage bringing the car back filled up. To avoid any added expenses, it is best to find a gas station before bringing the rental. Stations near airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

Should I get unlimited miles when I rent a car in Oregon?

If you want to check out all that Oregon offers, you are going to need unlimited miles. You can drive as far as you'd like without worrying about additional fees. Review the fine print to make sure your mileage is actually "unlimited."

Know before you go

Before you get started on your Oregon adventure, make sure you check out a few things before you leave the lot. It's worth the time to:

• Check out the vehicle and determine if there is any damage or scrapes. Be sure to make note of it on the paperwork, or you may get charged for it
• Check the trunk to see if the spare is inflated and the jack and lung wrench are there
• Familiarize yourself with the car. Adjust the mirrors and seats, and note how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
• Figure out how to work the radio or entertainment features. It's best to limit any unneeded distractions when you are navigating a new region
