10 tips to save on your Edgeware car hire

Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by specifying vehicle type and desired features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for extra space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for budget-friendly travel, filters on Expedia can help you discover the ideal match for your trip.
Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's advisable 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 seasons.
Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller cars typically have lower rental costs and are easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between price, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate under a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most beneficial option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure the car is returned empty in those cases.
Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but this added convenience might be worth the extra cost.
Know your payment options: Many car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can protect you from unexpected expenses and provide peace of mind if something unforeseen occurs during your trip. It's straightforward to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary for renting a car.
