Cheap Dollar Car Rental in Portland

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Portland, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70

Before renting a car in Portland, carefully review the rental conditions from suppliers like Dollar. Pay attention to details on payment card requirements, deposits, cross-border travel policies, and driving licence requirements to avoid any surprises.

When renting a car in Portland, choose a car rental deal with a “Full-to-Full” or “Same-to-Same” fuel policy from suppliers like Dollar. These policies ensure you only pay for the fuel you use, helping you avoid unnecessary costs. While a “Full-to-Empty” policy might seem convenient, it can often be more expensive if you don’t use all the fuel.

A credit card is often required for deposits, especially with suppliers like Dollar in Portland. If you only have a debit card, use our website filter to find suitable offers or consider obtaining a credit card. Ensure that the main driver’s card is used to avoid any additional fees.

Before finalizing your booking, check if the rental company offers free cancellation. This can provide peace of mind if your travel plans change unexpectedly.

Being aware of gas stations ensures you won't run low during your travels.

If you plan to share driving, check if the rental company allows a second driver and whether there are additional fees. Some companies offer free second driver options under certain conditions.

Before booking, review the rental agreement for any hidden fees such as airport surcharges, additional driver fees, or late return penalties. Understanding these can help you budget more effectively.
