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

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you’re looking for an SUV for extra space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for budget-friendly options, utilize the filters on Expedia to 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 wise to secure your car well in advance of your trip. By booking early, you're more likely to lock in lower rates and enjoy better availability, especially during peak travel seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller cars tend to be less expensive to rent and are often easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and some vehicle categories—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age requirements before making a reservation.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, requiring you to return the car with a full tank to avoid extra charges. This is generally the best option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which can also be convenient. Just remember to return the car empty in that case.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but it might be worthwhile for the added convenience.
  • Know your payment options: Many car rental companies only accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected costs and provides peace of mind in case something unforeseen occurs during your trip. Adding car rental insurance when booking with Expedia is a straightforward process.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning long road trips, search for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
