Oregon car rentals

Having your own rental vehicle while in Oregon means having the freedom to go where you need to on your own schedule. Public transportation doesn’t always serve all of the areas you might need to visit on your trip, and taxis can be expensive at times. However, when you rent your own car, the sky’s the limit. From Thor’s Well on the coast to the endless forests near Bend, to downtown Eugene, you’re in charge of your own schedule when you rent a car in Oregon.

Driving in Oregon is as easy and convenient as one could hope. Interstate 5 runs north to south, while Interstate 84 generally travels east to west. Aside from the interstate highways, Oregon features everything from urban streets to small-town avenues and even a few gravel roads out in the countryside. You may even encounter a toll road on your visit, such as the Bridge of the Gods, which crosses the Columbia River to connect with I-84 near Washington. While the winter can bring snowfall and icy conditions, Oregon does a fine job of maintaining its roads year-round.

Oregon, like most other states, allows for teenagers to begin driving with a permit around age sixteen. This does not mean that a sixteen year-old can rent a car in the state, however. In Oregon, the legal minimum age for renting a vehicle is twenty one years. It is important to bear in mind, however, that if you wish to rent a vehicle before you reach age twenty five, many rental agencies will add an underage surcharge to your rental agreement. Sometimes this surcharge is assessed per day, other times it is simply added to the bill entirely. Be prepared to show a valid driver’s license or other documents when signing your rental agreement.
