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

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and specific features. Whether you're in need of an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for budget-friendliness, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the perfect match for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates can vary based on demand, so it’s advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. Booking in advance typically allows you to lock in lower prices and enjoy better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are usually more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in congested areas. Mid-size cars offer a good compromise between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and certain types of vehicles—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always confirm the age restrictions prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements require a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the most advantageous option. Other agreements may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fuel choices, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car empty in those circumstances.
  • 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 extra cost.
  • Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides you with peace of mind if something unforeseen occurs during your trip. It’s straightforward to add car hire insurance when making a reservation through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extended road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent extra charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a vehicle.
