Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Houston?

Can I rent a car from George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH)?

What happens if I need to cancel my Houston car reservation?
Not a problem! If you cancel your prepaid reservation at least six hours before the pickup time, you're likely to qualify for all of your money back. Be sure to read your car's cancellation policy as there are some exceptions. Head to our Customer Service Portal for more information.
What types of cars can I rent in Houston?
Mini, economy, full-size, premium ... The choice is all yours! However, compact models are the most popular in Houston. If you're searching for something reasonably priced and small, but not too small, this category of rental car is a wise choice. Navigating bustling streets will be easy in one of these. Compact cars are a little roomier compared to economy models and are suited to couples and families on a budget.
Where can I go on a road trip from Houston?
Houston has plenty to keep you on the move, but don't limit yourself to just the one place. Book a set of wheels and hit the road to see what else awaits in the wider region. Here are a few places to choose from:

  • You'll discover Kyle Field and loads of other interesting sights in College Station. From Houston, it's about 137 kilometres away.
  • Next stop? Consider Galveston, which is around 72 kilometres away. Moody Gardens is one local highlight you won't want to miss.
  • Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Centre is around 241 kilometres from Houston and is one of the region's most spectacular nature spots. Go for a wander around and enjoy the fresh air.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Houston?
The minimum age to rent a vehicle in Houston is 21. A young driver surcharge will apply, so check before booking and take into account any additional costs. There could also be restrictions on the sorts of vehicles available to young drivers. For example, some outlets will only rent out economy to medium-sized cars to young motorists. Requirements may differ between providers, so read the fine print carefully.
What do you need to rent a car in Houston?
In most cases, all you'll need is a current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when picking up the car. Proof of coverage may also be required if you choose to opt out of the company's insurance policy. These requirements often differ between rental companies, so it's a good idea to check while booking.
What is the cheapest car rental in Houston?
The lowest rate for a rental car in Houston within the past seven days was CA $46 per day. The next best deal snapped up by happy travellers was CA $47. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Houston?
Yes, so you won't have to rebook a rental car in the middle of your vacation. Head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and find a set of wheels that's all yours for the next month or so.
Where can I find a Houston car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver looking for a rental in Houston, we recommend reading the policies of the various car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be additional costs if you're between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any unwanted surprises on pickup, make sure you know what to expect.
