10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Red Bay

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and specific features. Whether you need an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for budget-friendly options, utilize the filters on Expedia to discover the perfect vehicle for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your vehicle well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you are likely to access lower rates and a wider selection, particularly during peak travel seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles tend to be more affordable to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain types of vehicles—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This age-related policy can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age restrictions before making a reservation.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rental companies operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This option is typically the most advantageous. Other companies may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which can also be convenient—just remember to return the car empty in that case.
  • 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.
  • Know your payment options: Most car rental companies accept only credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provides peace of mind if something unforeseen occurs during your trip. Adding car rental insurance is straightforward when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan to take long road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a vehicle.
