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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you need an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for budget-friendly options, utilize the filters on Expedia to discover the best fit for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to reserve your vehicle 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.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller cars typically have lower rental rates and are easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals offer a good compromise between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and some vehicle types—such as SUVs or luxury 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 rental agreements require a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is usually the most favorable option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling choices, which are also acceptable. Just ensure that you return the vehicle empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at the airport often incurs a surcharge, but it may be worth it for the added convenience.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provides peace of mind in case of unforeseen events during your trip. It's easy to add rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan to take long road trips, look for rentals 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.

Expedia makes it easy and fast to compare costs, offers and rental providers, and to check customer reviews. Combine your Peebles car rental with flight or hotel bookings and you'll save even more.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Peebles?
Peebles requires drivers to be at least 21 before they can rent a car. However, young drivers can expect an extra cost and tighter rental conditions. Most providers impose a young renter fee on top of the usual car rental rate. This covers the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car classes (like compact and mid-size) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Peebles?
While rules may differ between rental car outlets, the two key things you'll need are your driver's license and a credit card. You don't need to take out insurance with your rental company. However, proof of alternative coverage may be necessary.
What side of the road do you drive on in Peebles?
Motorists in Peebles drive on the left-hand side, and the steering wheel and other controls are on the opposite side to cars in the U.S. Take some time getting acquainted with your new ride before getting on the road.

Where can I find a Peebles car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver looking for a rental in Peebles, we recommend reading the policies of the various car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be extra costs if you're between 21 and 24 years old. To escape any unwanted surprises at the rental desk, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Peebles?
Start your road trip the right way by choosing Expedia's collision protection. While there are many types of insurance, this is one you'll need to have. It provides primary coverage for theft, vandalism and collision damage up to $35,000, as well as 24/7 emergency help. Don't wait until you reach the rental desk to insure your wheels. Opt in to collision protection while booking your Peebles ride with Expedia and save money and time.
Can I drive in Peebles with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Scotland, then you'll likely need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some other requirements for international car rentals are:
  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with a rental car.
