Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from Heathrow Airport (LHR)?
You sure can. After you've picked up your bags at Heathrow Airport (LHR), you'll find the rental car center located in Terminals 2, 3, 4 and 5. Book a ride that's right for you with Budget, Sixt or Hertz. Alamo and Europcar are other suppliers worth looking at.
What happens if I need to cancel my London car reservation?
We get that having the freedom to change your plans is important. That's why many prepaid bookings give a complete refund if you cancel at least six hours ahead of collecting the car. It's still good to go through the rental agreement though because there are some exclusions. If you can't see any details there, head over to our Customer Service Portal.

Where can I find a London car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the rental companies that are found in London. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages.
