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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you're seeking an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economy car for cost-effectiveness, utilise the filters on Expedia to help you identify the ideal vehicle for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to reserve your car well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you're likely to secure more competitive rates and enjoy better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to park in congested areas. Mid-size rentals offer a good compromise 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 accessible. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate under a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most beneficial option. Other policies may include full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling options, which are also acceptable. Just ensure you return the car empty in this case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: It's common to 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 hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides you with peace of mind should something unforeseen occur during your trip. Adding car hire insurance when booking through Expedia is straightforward.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning extensive road trips, search for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to evade extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential to rent a car.
