Frequently asked questions

Can I book now and pay later for my car rental in Northern Virginia?
Lock in your rental car with Expedia and then pay nothing until it's time to pick up your vehicle. You can do so through our Book Now Pay Later option. Simply present a valid credit card to pay the cost in full at the pickup location. The rental car company will also put a hold on your credit card for the deposit. Cheaper deals may need to be paid in advance — how you can pay will be shown at the time of booking. When it's time to hit the road in Northern Virginia, Expedia will help you find your perfect wheels.
What happens if I need to cancel my Northern Virginia car reservation?
You should qualify for a total refund on your prepaid rental if you let us know a minimum of six hours before picking up the car. Look through the policy for the finer details. Our Customer Service Portal may have what you need too.
What types of cars can I rent in Northern Virginia?
Busy city streets and tight parking spaces are no sweat for an economy car — the most popular rental type in Northern Virginia. Grab the wheel of one of these and get around traffic easily. Reliable, affordable and good on gas, these small cars pack plenty of punch. But Northern Virginia can be explored in almost any sort of rental you like. Compact, full-size and premium vehicles are some other options to choose from.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Northern Virginia?
Rental car rules in Northern Virginia require drivers to be at least 21. Are you a younger driver? A few surcharges and restrictions may apply. Rental outlets impose what's known as a young renter surcharge, which is an extra fee to the rental car cost. Restrictions generally apply to the types of cars available to young motorists as well. Age limits may vary between suppliers, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Northern Virginia?
Your driver's license and a credit card in the same name. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? If that's the case, you may need proof of other coverage. Rules may differ between suppliers, so read through your policy.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Northern Virginia?
Yes, and you'll find your ideal ride among our long-term car rental deals. Just enter your trip details and we'll show you fantastic options from a range of trusted companies.
Where can I find a Northern Virginia car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do a little homework. Found a Northern Virginia outlet that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Terrific! Just be aware that some companies charge additional fees to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in will have all the details you need.
