10 tips to save on your car hire in and around Birdham

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting specific vehicle types and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer outings, or an economical car for budget-friendliness, utilise the filters on Expedia to help you discover the perfect option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary with demand, so it’s advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. Booking early often allows you to obtain lower rates and ensures better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are generally more economical to rent and easier to manoeuvre 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—such as SUVs or premium models—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 rental agreements necessitate 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. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling options, which are also acceptable. Just ensure you return the vehicle empty in this case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Collecting your rental car from airports often incurs a surcharge, though it may be worthwhile for the added convenience.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind should anything unexpected occur during your trip. It’s straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extensive road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional costs.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is mandatory for renting a car.
