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

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle types and specific features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economy car for budget-friendliness, utilize filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to reserve your vehicle well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you’re more likely to secure lower prices and better availability, especially during busy seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are typically less expensive to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size vehicles strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain types of vehicles—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always confirm the age requirements prior to making a reservation.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the most advantageous option. Other policies may include full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which are also acceptable. Just ensure you return the vehicle empty in these cases.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at the airport often incurs a surcharge, but it might be worth the extra cost for the convenience it provides.
  • Know your payment options: Many car rental companies only accept credit cards for transactions.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help prevent unexpected costs and offers you additional peace of mind in case something unforeseen occurs during your trip. It’s easy to add insurance when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, look for rental options 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 vehicle.
