Affordable, easy to drive and great on mileage, it’s no coincidence that compact vehicles are the most popular rental in Nanaimo. Explore this city in one of these and you’ll be able to park in tight spaces and easily dart around busy streets. A compact is ideal for city escapes or short road trips.

What do you need to rent a car in Nanaimo?
Most rental companies will ask for these two things — your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you choose to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to pick up the keys.

Where can I find a Nanaimo car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a vehicle if you are under 25 years old in Nanaimo often depends on the rental supplier you choose. Some outlets apply a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24 years old, yet other companies may not apply any extra fees for this age bracket. It’d be good to understand the terms and conditions of your selected car rental dealer to escape extra charges when collecting your car.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Nanaimo?
Get your road trip off to a good start by purchasing Expedia’s collision damage protection. While there are many types of car rental insurance, this is one you’ll need to have. It provides primary coverage for theft, vandalism and collision damage up to $35,000, as well as 24-hour emergency help. Don’t wait until you reach the rental desk to insure your ride. Opt in to collision protection while reserving your Nanaimo ride with Expedia and save money and time.
