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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car to save money, utilize the filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your trip.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's wise to book your car well ahead of your travel dates. By reserving early, you’re likely to secure lower rates and enjoy better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 often face higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—like SUVs or premium models—may be unavailable. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify age requirements before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on 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 cost-effective option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling arrangements, which are acceptable as well; just remember to return the vehicle empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the added convenience may justify the extra cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Most car rental companies accept only credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help prevent unnecessary expenses and provide peace of mind in case of unexpected events during your trip. Adding car rental insurance is straightforward when booking with Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to avoid extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
