Secure your wheels without paying in advance with our Book Now Pay Later option. When you go to pick up your car in Hartford, simply have whoever’s driving present a valid credit card to pay the cost in full. The car rental company will also place a hold on your card for the security deposit. It’s the ideal way to help you budget for your vacation and alleviate the stress of booking. Keep in mind that prepayment applies to some cheaper car rental deals. Expedia search results will display if a car is eligible for “pay at pickup.”

When you cancel at least six hours in advance of the scheduled collection time, the majority of prepaid reservations qualify for a refund. However, not all are eligible for this, so it’s important to familiarize yourself with your rental policy. Look over your confirmation for the specifics or click through to our Customer Service Portal to find out more.

Busy city streets and cramped parking spaces are no match for an economy car — the most in-demand type of rental in Hartford. Take the wheel of one of these and get around traffic like a dream. Reliable, affordable and with terrific mileage, these small rides pack plenty of punch. But Hartford can be explored in almost any type of rental you like. Compact, full-size and premium vehicles are some other options to choose from.

Drivers aged 21 and above can road trip around Hartford in a rental vehicle. If you’re a young motorist, a daily surcharge will apply. You’ll generally be restricted to a few car categories, such as economy and compact, and may also have to take out inclusive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to learn if any extra fees or restrictions apply.

Any rental company you choose will need these two things — a current driver’s license and credit card. If you want to opt out of the supplier’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to collect your car.
