10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Aurora

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and desired features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car to save money, leverage the filters on Expedia to find the perfect vehicle for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, making it wise to reserve your car well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you're more likely to secure lower rates and enjoy better availability, particularly during peak travel seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Typically, smaller cars are more affordable to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain types of vehicles—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements before finalizing your booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental companies may require a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid extra fees. This is usually the most economical choice. Other options might include full-to-empty or prepaid fueling, which can also be acceptable. Just be sure to return the car empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at the airport often incurs a surcharge, but the added convenience might justify the cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Most car rental companies only accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provides peace of mind if something unforeseen occurs during your trip. Adding car rental insurance is simple when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan to take long road trips, search for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to steer clear of additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
