10 tips to save on your Hamm car hire

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you need an SUV for extra room, a convertible for summer enjoyment, 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 vary based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you're more likely to lock in lower rates and enjoy better availability, especially during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to maneuver in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—like SUVs or premium options—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  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 generally the best choice. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which are also acceptable. Just ensure you return the car empty in this case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: You may incur a surcharge for picking up your rental car at airports, but the added convenience might 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 safeguard you against unexpected expenses and provides peace of mind during your trip. It's simple to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning long road trips, look for rental options that offer unlimited mileage to avoid incurring extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.
