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

Usually, the age limit for car rentals in Oakdale is 21—the same as it is across the rest of the United States of America. However, you might need to pay a surcharge if you're under 25. Be sure to read over the supplier's terms to figure out what the exact fee will be before you book your vehicle.

Does Oakdale require rental car insurance?

When driving in Oakdale or the rest of the U.S.A., you will need insurance. Many suppliers need proof of insurance before you pick up your car. Almost all countries require driver's insurance. You might be able to purchase additional insurance through the rental car dealer for your trip, if you think your insurance won't cover you while traveling through the United States. Additionally, as a United States citizen, you can also purchase Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.

Although many of the major card issuers, like MasterCard or Visa, provide some insurance, there are usually restrictions. For example, they may not cover your rental car if you get a luxury or larger vehicle. Be sure to check the rental car company's policy before you decide.

What is the fuel policy for Oakdale rental cars?

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

What type of fuel policy should I choose?

Most suppliers give you a full tank policy. At CarRentals.com, we advise returning it with a full tank of gas. If you want to keep your expenses lower, it is best to fill up your tank before returning the rental car. Stations near airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

Is it worth getting unlimited miles?

If you wish to see all that Oakdale and maybe even the rest of Louisiana offers, you are going to want unlimited miles. You won't have to worry about extra charges if you decide to drive all over Oakdale. Read the fine print to be certain they are truly "unlimited."

Tips before you leave the lot

Before you begin on your Oakdale vacation, be sure you go over a few items before you leave the rental lot. It's worth the time to:

• Walk around the vehicle and be sure there is no dents or scrapes. If you notice any, mark it down on the paperwork
• Check the trunk to see if the spare is properly inflated and the necessary tools to change it are there
• Get familiar with the controls of your car. Adjust the mirrors and seats to your liking, and figure out how to turn on the lights and wipers
• Get comfortable working the radio or entertainment features. It's best to limit any unnecessary distractions when you are navigating a new city
