The market town of Ipswich is the capital of Suffolk in the East of England, located about 60 miles from London. It is a town rich in history and heritage, dating from Saxon and Roman times – the claim has even been made that it is England’s oldest city. It has a historically significant port, though the waterside area has now been redeveloped into a thriving centre for leisure and entertainment.
Enterprise has two car hire branches in Ipswich, one located in the city centre – convenient for hotels in the centre and the train station – and the second located to the north of the city on Ipswich Whitehouse Industrial Estate, just off the A14. Pick-ups and drop-offs can be arranged for either of these Ipswich branches.
The essential items you will need to bring to an Enterprise Rent-A-Car branch when hiring a vehicle are a valid drivers licence, valid ID, and a credit or debit card. You will also need to prove you are over 25 years of age, and there may be additional documentation required for international drivers. Learn more about what you need when hiring here.
No. At Enterprise you don't need to purchase insurance as we provide a damage waiver within the cost of your hire. You can, of course, take option to purchase additional protection products to reduce the excess further to give you complete peace of mind. Visit our car hire insurance page for further details.
