Car & Van Hire - Whitehaven
Hiring a car at Whitehaven
The town and port of Whitehaven is on the Cumbrian coast, served by the A595 Road. Whitehaven lies close to the Sellafield Nuclear Reprocessing site, the main employer in the area, although Whitehaven's industrial heritage comes from the exporting of coal and importing of cotton, sugar, cocoa and coffee. The harbour area underwent extensive renovation in 2002-2003 and now incorporates a marina, and is the main tourist attraction in the town, where a maritime festival featuring tall ships and a range of entertainment takes place every two years. Whitehaven has two railway stations, both on the Cumbrian Coast Line from Carlisle to Barrow-in-Furness. The town has a sizeable shopping centre along King Street and Strand Street, with high street names represented alongside smaller independent retailers. Whitehaven is a good base for those wishing to visit the Lake District National Park. Loweswater and Buttermere are only 20 miles away and Keswick just seven miles further on. Ornithologists stay in the town due to its proximity to the RSPB nature reserve at St Bees Head. With a great deal on a car of your choice from Enterprise Rent-A-Car, all these fabulous locations are within easy reach. Enterprise is situated half a mile from the town centre, on the B5345. The 300 bus from Strand Street covers the route in five minutes.

To rent a car from Enterprise Rent-A-Car in the United States and Canada, you will need the following:
- To be 25 years old
- A valid driving licence with a photo
- A photo ID (for example: a driving licence or passport)
- Credit or debit card (check the acceptable forms of payment at the location you're renting from)
Some locations may require additional information, including but not limited to:
- An International Driving Permit (IDP): If the licence is written in a language or characters different from those of the country of rental, an IDP is also required. Renters are advised to check whether local authorities require foreign drivers to present an International Driving Permit to avoid the risk of potential fines. Renters with licences from countries that are not part of the International Driving Permit Agreement should carry a certified translation.
- Return travel and accommodation information: Visitors to the UK must also provide proof of return travel and accommodation information while in the UK.
As a customer, you have a choice as to how you would like to pay for fuel.
Fuel policy at non-airport locations:
- You may refuel the vehicle to the same fuel level you received when you picked up the vehicle, or if you choose not to refuel the vehicle to the same fuel level, you will be charged the local Enterprise rate which is typically above the local pump price. An additional refuelling charge may apply at some locations.
- A full tank of fuel is not guaranteed.

- You may opt to pre-pay for fuel — pre-pay gives you two conveniences:

- The pre-pay fuel option is calculated at the local rate of fuel minus a per gallon discount.
Note: Pre-paid fuel is only sold in full tanks at the discounted price per gallon and is not refundable. Local fuel rates will vary by the area you are renting a vehicle.
