Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my San Francisco car reservation?
We appreciate that plans change and flexibility is important. That's why the majority of prepaid rentals give a total refund if canceled a minimum of six hours in advance of the pickup time. You may want to read the cancellation policy though as there are some exclusions. If you can't see any details there, click on our Customer Service Portal.
What types of cars can I rent in San Francisco?
Whatever suits your style! Go for a mid-size or full-size if you're traveling with the family, or level up to a premium if it's sophistication you're after. Or, choose an economy model — the most booked rental in San Francisco. Affordable and with superb mileage, they're a good match for solo travelers, couples or anyone else who doesn't require a huge amount of space. They're especially suited to exploring cities. Squeezing into narrow parking spots will be a cinch!
How do I find the best car rental deals in San Francisco with Expedia?
Pick up an incredible deal with Expedia. Simply choose your favorite ride, select your dates and pickup and drop-off locations, and browse offers from popular rental suppliers. Save even more when you combine your San Francisco car rental with flight or hotel bookings.
What do you need to rent a car in San Francisco?
You'll need to present your driver's license and a credit card when you get to the rental counter. Before pickup, check with your rental supplier whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of auto insurance.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in San Francisco?
Yes, so there's no need to rebook a rental car halfway through your vacation. Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and reserve a ride that's all yours for the duration of your escape.
Where can I find a San Francisco car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so be prepared to do a little research. Found a San Francisco supplier that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Terrific news! Just be aware that a surcharge often applies to drivers between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in should have all the information you need.
