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

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search based on vehicle type and desired features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer outings, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise filters on Expedia to identify the best option for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates vary according to demand, so it's wise to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you're more likely to lock in lower prices and benefit from greater availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Small cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in busy areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 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 years old. Always review the age restrictions before making a reservation.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate under a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most advantageous option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fuel alternatives, which can also be acceptable. Just ensure that the car is returned empty in that case.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but it may be worthwhile for the added convenience it offers.
  • Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avert unnecessary expenses and provides you with extra peace of mind should anything unexpected arise during your trip. Adding car hire insurance is straightforward when booking with Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan to embark on long road trips, search for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's licence is necessary to rent a car.
