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

  1. 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 fun, or an economy car for budget-friendliness, utilize filters on Expedia to help you discover the perfect match for your journey.
  2. 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 trip. By booking early, you’re more likely to lock in lower prices and enjoy greater availability, especially during peak travel seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars typically come at a lower rental cost and are easier to maneuver and park in crowded areas. Mid-size vehicles offer a solid balance of affordability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium 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 rentals require a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the best option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fueling alternatives, which are also acceptable. Just be sure to return the car empty in such cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the added convenience may make it worthwhile.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies only 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 something goes wrong during your trip. Adding car rental insurance is simple when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning long road trips, look for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to steer clear of extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.

To avoid any nasty surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know if any extra charges apply to you.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Pottsville?
A thorough insurance plan is a wise choice for your Pottsville adventure. That's why we recommend adding collision protection while reserving your rental car with Expedia.

This might be included in your rental price or your own auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and if you need it.
Can I drive in Pottsville with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Australia, then you might need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car. It's also important to note that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some additional requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in most places to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of vehicles you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before driving away. You typically can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car.
