Route1 car hire

The age to rent a car will change depending on where in the world you want to go. In most countries you need to be at least 21 years old and a lot of car rental companies will charge extra if you're under 25 years old.

The documents you need to rent a car could change depending on where in the world you want to visit. In most cases you'll need a valid driving licence, photo ID and a credit card. You can check with Route1 when you book.

Yes, you can rent a car with Route1 for a month, but it all depends on availability. Simply put in your dates and destination to see what deals are out there, and whether Route1 has a car available for a month's rental.

This all depends on the level of car rental insurance you pick when you hire a car with Route1. When you do a search for car rental deals with us, you'll be able to see the different levels of insurance you get with each deal clearly. So do your car hire search today and take a look at the levels of cover you could get.

Yes, Route1 often offer car rental with unlimited mileage. But this will depend on the deal you go for when you search for car hire with us. To find a deal without a cap on the miles you make, simply start your car hire search and filter to only show offers with unlimited mileage under 'policies'.

The Route1 cancellation policy will depend on the deal you pick when you book. When you search for car rental with us, simply filter by 'free cancellation' to bag a deal with complete flexibility should your plans change.

Although a lot of major providers do offer van hire, we can't find any vans available through Route1 at the moment. Try Localiza or Click and Rent instead.

The deposit you pay can depend on the type of car you choose, so make sure you check this before you book. You can usually find this information when you’re redirected to the Route1 booking site.

Most major car hire companies accept debit cards, but you might need to show extra documents, pay a larger deposit, or have your credit checked. It’s a good idea to read the Route1 policy before you book to make sure they’ll accept your payment.
