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

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. If you’re looking for an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economy car for budget-friendliness, use the filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your trip.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates can vary based on demand, so it’s wise to secure your car well ahead of your travel dates. By booking early, you are likely to lock in lower prices and enjoy a wider selection, especially during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are generally more affordable to rent and easier to maneuver in crowded areas. Mid-size vehicles strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain types of vehicles—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements require a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the most advantageous option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling alternatives, which can also work, but make sure to return the car empty in such cases.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the convenience may justify the extra cost.
  • Know your payment options: Most car rental companies only accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provide peace of mind if something unforeseen occurs during your trip. It’s easy to add rental insurance when you book through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, search for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to avoid incurring extra fees.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
