What happens if I need to cancel my East London car reservation?

You may want to check your agreement though as there are some exemptions. If the information isn't there, head over to our Customer Service Portal.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in East London?
East London rules state drivers must be 21 and over to be able to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect a surcharge and stricter rental conditions. Most providers impose a young renter fee in addition to the car rental rate. This helps cover the extra risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and economy) are available to young motorists, restrictions usually apply to luxury cars.
What do you need to rent a car in East London?
A current driver's license and a credit card in the same name are necessities. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? In that case, you're also likely to need proof of your own coverage. The requirements may differ between rental companies, so read through your policy.
