What types of cars can I rent in Buffalo?
The majority of visitors rent economy cars in Buffalo. Motorists love them because they're fuel-efficient and affordable.

  • You'll find Genesee River's High Falls and lots more interesting sights in Rochester. From Buffalo, it's roughly 105 kilometers away.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Buffalo?
In most cases, the requirement is 21 years and over in Buffalo. It should be noted that most companies have a young driver surcharge. Read the fine print before you book your ride, as different rules may apply between rental car suppliers. Bear in mind that if you want to rent a luxury ride or a large car like an SUV, you may need to be older than 21.
What do you need to rent a car in Buffalo?
Your driver's license and a credit card in the same name. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? Then you may also need proof of your own coverage. Requirements may differ between suppliers, so be sure to read through your policy.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Buffalo?
Yes, so there's no need to rebook a rental vehicle mid-vacation. Click on our long-term car rental deals page, enter your information and secure a set of wheels to call your own for the length of your escape.
Where can I find a Buffalo car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a vehicle if you are under 25 years old in Buffalo often depends on the rental company you choose. Some businesses apply a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years of age, but others may not apply any additional fees for this age group. Make sure you understand the terms and conditions of your preferred car company to avoid any surprise charges at the rental desk.
