Where can I find a Hartford car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies operating in Hartford. They often have different age policies. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, keep in mind that additional fees may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before booking your rental.
