One Way Rentals from Toronto Pearson Airport

Pick up your car at Toronto Pearson and drop it off in Ottawa, Montreal, or even Vancouver. One-way rentals are a popular way to experience the vastness of Canada without needing to double back.

Please note that each provider sets their own rules for one-way rentals, and some may apply a mandatory local fee. This is clearly shown during the booking process.

Driver Age Requirements in Toronto

Can I rent a car in Toronto if I am under 25?
Yes. While many providers apply a Young Driver Surcharge and may restrict access to specific vehicle categories, there are options for younger drivers with a full, valid licence. Minimum age requirements typically vary by provider.

Can I rent a car in Toronto if I am over 70?
Yes. Senior drivers are widely welcomed in Ontario. While some providers may have upper age limits for certain luxury models, most standard rentals have no additional fees or restrictions.

What is the best time of year to explore Toronto by car?

The shoulder seasons of Autumn (September to October) and Spring (May to June) offer pleasant weather and are ideal for seeing the famous Ontario fall colours. Summer is peak season for visiting the Great Lakes, while winter offers a different magic—just ensure your vehicle is appropriately equipped if you plan to drive in snowy conditions.

Essential Tips for Driving in Ontario

The Greater Toronto Area features the 407 ETR, a privately operated, all-electronic toll highway. Because toll payment structures and administration fees vary significantly between car rental providers, it is essential to clarify the specific toll arrangement and any daily fees at the rental desk. While winter tyres are not legally mandatory in Ontario, they are highly recommended during the winter season for improved safety. All specific details regarding your rental and the provider's rules will be found in your car rental terms and conditions.
