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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you’re looking for an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer outings, or an economy car for budget-friendly travel, leverage the filters on Expedia to discover the perfect vehicle for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it’s wise to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you are more likely to lock in lower rates and enjoy a wider selection, particularly during peak travel seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles typically come at a lower rental price and are easier to maneuver and park in crowded areas. Mid-size cars strike a good balance between affordability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers younger than 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle categories—like SUVs or luxury models—might not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age restrictions prior to booking.
  5. 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 fees. This is usually the most economical option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fueling choices, which are acceptable as well. Just make sure to return the car empty in those cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the convenience it offers can make it worthwhile.
  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 something unforeseen occurs during your trip. Adding car rental insurance during your Expedia booking is a simple process.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning on taking long road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary for renting a car.

What happens if I need to cancel my Princeton car reservation?
Good news! You should receive a full refund if you advise us at least six hours ahead of the scheduled pickup time.

These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.

Yes. We partner with quality providers that offer weekly and monthly rentals for a wide range of cars. Head to our long-term car rental deals and explore every corner of Princeton — or beyond!
Where can I find a Princeton car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so be prepared to do a bit of homework. Managed to find a Princeton supplier that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Terrific news! Just take note that an extra charge often applies to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're looking at will have all the details you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Princeton?
It's a good idea to have collision damage protection to cover your Princeton rental car against theft, vandalism and accident damage. And with Expedia, you can easily add this insurance to your vehicle at the time of booking. Providing up to $35,000 in primary coverage, it also offers 24/7 emergency assistance and no deductible if you need to make a claim. Have your plans changed? If you cancel your policy before your scheduled pick-up time, you'll receive a full refund.
Can I drive in Princeton with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Canada, then you'll likely need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. You should also note that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll have to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. A few other things to note for international car rentals are:
  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in many countries to rent a car. If you're younger, 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 cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before getting behind the wheel. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with a rental vehicle.
