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

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you're after an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to find the best option 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 in advance of your trip. By booking early, you're more likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy greater availability, especially during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller cars are typically less expensive to rent and easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 years 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 years old. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals implement a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid extra fees. This is generally the most advantageous choice. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling options, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car empty in such cases.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: You may often incur a surcharge for collecting your rental car at airports, but the added convenience might justify the expense.
  • Know your payment options: Many car hire providers exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind in case of unexpected events during your trip. Adding car hire insurance when booking with Expedia is straightforward.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning lengthy road trips, seek rentals with unlimited mileage to prevent additional costs.
  • Bring your driver's licence and ID: A valid driver's licence is essential for renting a car.
