What do I need to bring when I get my rental car in San Francisco?

You'll need to carry with you your driver's permit and a credit card in your name.

What is the minimum age to rent a car in San Francisco?

Ace's minimum age to rent a car in San Francisco is 21. Some rentals, especially higher category vehicles (luxury, SUVs, etc.), may have an added fee if you are under 25. Make sure to check Ace's policy to find out if there is an additional cost before you book.

Is there a particular vehicle I should get for my trip to San Francisco?

That depends on how many people you are traveling with and what activities you want to do in San Francisco. Economy or compact automobiles are ideal for short drives and are easier to park. Commute times in San Francisco are close to 36 minutes, so you may find a SUV or mid-size car more comfortable. If you want to decrease your emissions and save on gas, then choose a hybrid vehicle.

You are required to have insurance before you rent from Ace in the United States. Although many of the major card issuers, like MasterCard or Visa, provide some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For instance, you may not be covered if you book a luxury or larger vehicle. Make sure to check credit card issuer's policy before you decide. Additionally, as a United States citizen, you can book Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.

Do I need to pay a deposit when I book my Ace car rental?

Ace does require a deposit when you book your rental car. Ace will block the deposit on your credit once you book your car for your trip. Please be aware that the deposit will vary greatly depending on the make and model of the rental.

Do I have to full up the tank before I take my car back to Ace?

We advise a full to full policy. You pick up your Ace rental with a full tank, and you will want to refuel up to the amount you picked the car up with. If you want to save some money, it is best to fill up your tank before you return the car to Ace. Stations near or around airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

San Francisco has over half a million people, so there should be plenty to do. Unlimited miles allow you to see what else California has to offer without being concerned about your limits.
