How much is a rental car per day in Wilmington?
Low-priced car rentals started at $34 per day in Wilmington, based on prices within the past seven days. With rates like this, we make it easy to pick up some keys and take to the road for less.
Can I rent a car from Wilmington Intl. Airport (ILM)?

What happens if I need to cancel my Wilmington car reservation?
We’ve got good news! You should be eligible for a full refund if you advise us a minimum of six hours before the arranged pickup time. Your confirmation contains details about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all reservations result in a refund though, so it’s a good idea to go over the car’s rental agreement.
What types of cars can I rent in Wilmington?
Whatever suits your style! Go for a mid-size or full-size if you’re traveling with the family, or scale up to a premium for a top-of-the-range ride. Or, choose an economy vehicle — the most booked rental in Wilmington. Affordable and with terrific mileage, they’re a good match for singles, couples or anyone else who doesn’t require a great deal of room. They’re particularly suited to city driving. Squeezing into narrow parking spots will be a walk in the park!

  • Make tracks to Raleigh for a fantastic sightseeing experience. About 110 mi from Wilmington, it’s home to numerous amazing attractions such as Duke University.
  • Your next pit stop? It has to be Myrtle Beach, which is around 65 mi away. Broadway at the Beach is one local highlight you shouldn’t miss.

Why should I rent a Wilmington car with Expedia?

How do I find the best car rental deals in Wilmington with Expedia?
Expedia makes it easy and fast to compare prices, offers and rental providers, and to check customer ratings. Combine your Wilmington car rental with flight or hotel bookings and you can make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Wilmington?
The youngest age you can rent a car in Wilmington is 21. An extra fee for young drivers usually applies, so check before you book and factor in any additional costs. There could also be restrictions on the categories of vehicles available to young drivers. For example, some companies will only rent out small and medium-sized cars to young motorists. Rules may vary between outlets, so look over the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Wilmington?
Most rental companies will ask for these two things — a current driver’s license and credit card. If you choose to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to pick up the keys.
What is the cheapest car rental in Wilmington?
Based on prices found over the past seven days, you could’ve sat in the driver’s seat of your own rental car for just $34 per day. The second lowest daily rate in Wilmington was $35. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Wilmington?
You can, and the great news is providers often offer lower rates the longer your rental term. Check out our long-term car rental deals in Wilmington and drive away with a serious bargain.
Where can I find a Wilmington car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car rental companies located in Wilmington. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, take note that additional fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before collecting the vehicle.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Wilmington?
It’s a good idea to have collision damage protection to cover your Wilmington car rental against accident damage, theft and vandalism. And with Expedia, you can easily add this insurance to your vehicle during the booking process. Providing up to $35,000 in primary coverage, it also offers 24-hour emergency assistance and a zero-dollar deductible in the event of a claim. Change of plans? If you cancel your insurance before your scheduled pick-up time, you’ll get all your money back.
