How much is a rental car per day in Washington?

What happens if I need to cancel my Washington car reservation?

Be sure to double-check your cancellation policy — there are some instances where it's not an option. Found nothing there? Our Customer Service Portal is always here to help.
What types of cars can I rent in Washington?
Economical, easy to operate and fuel-efficient, it's no surprise that compact cars are the most booked type of rental in Washington. Drive around this city in one of these and you'll be able to fit into tight parking spaces and easily dart around busy streets. A compact is perfect for city escapes or quick road trips. But they're not your only choice. Go even smaller with an economy ride or stretch out in an intermediate, a full-size or premium — the choice is yours!
Where can I go on a road trip from Washington?
Washington offers adventures galore, but don't limit yourself to just one place. Rent some wheels and head off to discover what else awaits in the surrounding area. Here are a few ideas:

  • Richmond is about 145 kilometres from Washington. Notable sights like Richmond Raceway deserve to be high on your must-see list while you're in town.
  • Situated 97 kilometres away, Alexandria is also a favourite with travellers. Allow time to take in George Washington Masonic National Memorial while you're in town. It's one of the reasons people love staying a while in this colourful city.
  • Visit Longwood Gardens to feel grounded in nature. Take a picnic to enjoy or just recharge your batteries in the fresh air. From Washington, it's 257 kilometres away.

Why should I rent a Washington car with Expedia?
With our exclusive offers, member discounts and big range of rental companies, finding the best ride at the ideal price is a piece of cake with Expedia.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Washington with Expedia?
Check customer reviews, choose your preferred ride and compare prices from top providers. Expedia makes it a cinch to nab the best deal on your rental wheels. Bundle your Washington car rental with flight or hotel bookings and start your road trip with even more in your wallet.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Washington?
In Washington, the requirement is 21 and over. Most companies will charge extra fees for young drivers, which can differ based on the rental location. Rental agreements for young drivers may include restrictions for certain vehicles, such as luxury cars, and require the purchase of comprehensive insurance. Remember to check the fine print before locking in your ride.
What do you need to rent a car in Washington?
Most rental companies will require two things — a current driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you'd prefer to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
What is the cheapest car rental in Washington?
According to prices found within the past seven days, the lowest daily rate for a rental vehicle in Washington was CA $160. The next best price was CA $180 per day. 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 Washington?
You can, and the good news is providers often offer lower rates the longer you rent. Look through our long-term car rental deals in Washington and score an incredible bargain.
Where can I find a Washington car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the rental companies that are found in Washington. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, bear in mind that additional fees may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before picking up the keys to your vehicle.
