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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle types and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for extra room, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economy car to save money, utilize the filters on Expedia to identify the best option for your trip.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices vary based on demand, making it wise to reserve your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you're likely to secure lower rates and enjoy a wider selection, especially during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles tend to be more affordable to rent and easier to maneuver in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals offer a balanced option, providing a good mix of cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicle types—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 making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the car with a full tank to avoid extra charges. This is typically the best option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fueling choices, which are also acceptable. Just remember to return the car empty in those cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: You may often incur a surcharge for picking up your rental car at airports, but the added convenience might be worth the extra 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. It's easy to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, look for rental options that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
