Yes – one-way car hire in the USA is possible. If you want to drive coast to coast from Chicago to LA, or between any other cities, just choose a different drop-off location. Be aware that many car hire companies charge a One Way Fee, also known as a drop charge, for this type of rental.

When you search for a one-way rental in the USA on Rentalcars.com, we tell you (before you book) if a car hire company would charge a One Way Fee. And because we deal with so many car hire companies in the USA, you can easily compare them to find the ones with the smallest fees, or even no One Way Fee at all.

Many car hire companies charge what is known as a Young Driver Fee. However, the definition of a ‘young driver’ varies from company to company – some charge a fee if you are under 21, while others will charge if you are under 25. The size of the young driver fee also varies according to car class and engine size.

We will always tell you about this fee before you confirm your booking.

And since we work with hundreds of car hire companies, you can compare several different cars to find the ones with the lowest Young Driver Fee, or even no Young Driver Fee at all.

If you are booking a hire a car in the USA as a foreigner, you will be required to purchase a package that includes a Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), as well as Theft Protection. These cover your rental in case the car is damaged or stolen, and typically have a low excess, or no excess whatsoever.

Most of the car hire companies we work with in the USA include CDW and Theft Protection in their packages, so when you book through us, these are included in the price. You can check the terms and conditions of a specific car for more information.
