To secure Charleston SUV rentals, you need to be at least 21 years old. However, car rental agencies can set the limit higher than that if they choose. So, if you are younger than 25, make sure that the agency will rent to someone your age before you arrive to collect the vehicle. Also, if you are younger than 25, the car rental agency may charge you an extra fee every day because of your age. At the time that you make your reservation, you should ask whether this fee will be assessed and how much it will be.
A number of car rental agencies have counters at Charleston International Airport (CHS), including Alamo, Avis, Budget, Enterprise, Hertz, and National. All these car rental agencies have Charleston SUV rentals available among the vehicles in their fleet. You can find the car rental counters at CHS in the arrivals area near the baggage claim carousels. To pick up your rental vehicle, walk to the Rental Car Pavilion which is just outside just beyond baggage claim.

On Highway 17, Enterprise has a location both immediately east and immediately west of the intersection with I-526. You can also find an Enterprise agency in the northeast corner of the city on Marina Drive. Near the Carnival Cruise port near the shores of Cooper River, you can find an Avis car rental on Meeting Street.
