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

Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by specifying the 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, utilize filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your journey.
Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to make your reservation well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you are more likely to secure lower rates and enjoy a wider selection, particularly during peak seasons.
Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to maneuver in crowded areas. Mid-size cars offer a solid compromise between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify age restrictions before making a reservation.
Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements require a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional fees. This is typically the most favorable option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fueling alternatives, which are acceptable as well—just ensure you 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 the added convenience might 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 protect you from unexpected expenses and provide peace of mind should anything go awry during your trip. It's easy to add rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning long road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to avoid incurring extra charges.
Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
