Frequently asked questions

How do I get a Vancouver Thrifty car rental at a great rate?

We strive to get you the lowest price, whether you book. However, reserving your car ahead of time can help you save even more. Make sure to not add an additional driver and go over the mileage policy to avoid any surprise fees.

Do I need to bring anything special when I get my car in Vancouver?

You'll need to carry with you credit card, as well as your driver's license.

What's Vancouver's minimum age to rent a car?

Thrifty's minimum age to rent a car in Vancouver is 21. Make sure to check Thrifty's policies, as there may be limitations if you are under 25 in most cases or for higher category rentals in particular.

What kind of Thrifty rental car should I get for my trip to Vancouver?

That all depends on your needs and what activities you want to do in Vancouver. Compact or economy automobiles are great for short drives and are easier to park. If you are traveling with coworkers, then a SUV or mid-size vehicle is going to have enough room for all of you and be a more comfortable ride. Those looking for a little luxury on their Vancouver getaway can choose a higher-end car model like a Mercedes C-Class or Cadillac XTS or similar.

Do I need insurance when I rent a car in Canada?

In Canada you do need to have insurance before you rent a car from Thrifty. Many major credit card issuers (American Express, Visa, MasterCard and Discover) typically cover your car rental. However, many of them have limitations, such as not covering large vehicles, like premium models or some SUVs. Make sure to call and find out exactly what your credit card will cover and how much before you head to Vancouver. Otherwise, as a United States citizen, you can add on Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.

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

Thrifty does require a deposit when you book your rental. Thrifty will block the deposit on your credit once you reserve your vehicle for your trip. Please be aware that the deposit can vary greatly based on the model and make of the rental.

Do I have to return my Thrifty rental with a full tank?

At CarRentals.com, we recommend a full to full policy. You pick up your Thrifty rental topped off. If you return the rental with less than the amount it was given to you, most companies will charge a premium to top it back off. If you want to keep your expenses lower, it is best to find a gas station before you bring it back to Thrifty.

Why should I get unlimited miles?

Vancouver certainly has its charms, but you may want to hit the road again after you've checked off all the activities in Vancouver.

Does Vancouver Thrifty offer one-way car rentals?

Thrifty usually offers one-way rentals. You may find it more convenient to return your rental car at another Thrifty. Don't forget there is typically an additional charge when you opt for one-way.
