    Sure, but you gotta have a good credit card. If that ain't possible, I believe you can leave a cash deposit. $400 or $500 sticks in my mind but that's only hearsay.

    Good Luck

    I recommend you read Dave Ramsey's book The Total Money Makeover. It changed the way I look at money.

    I've never had a car rental company check my credit. As long as you show a valid driver's license, valid insurance, and you have a credit card for the deposit, you can rent a car. Some (but not all) rental companies also accept a debit card for car rentals. If you don't have a credit card or debit card, you can usually make a cash payment up-front for the deposit, and you'll get it refunded when you return the car with no damage.

    Yes you can. They will not check your credit but if you do not have car insurance then you will have to pay about $25-$30 more per day for their insurance on the rental car. And you usually have to have a credit card or a debit card of some kind. If you do not have any kind of credit card or debit card you can go buy a prepaid visa card at walmart for like $10 and just load money on it

    once you bypass to %. up the cardboard, they are going to place a short-term carry on your credits card for the envisioned volume of the automobile apartment can charge...or a minimum of $2 hundred or so. in case you haven't any longer have been given this accessible stability on your credits card, then they probable won't lease you the automobile. Have a Plan B for different preparations lest you finally end up getting stranded on the airport in Canada.
