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

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and specific features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for added space, a convertible for those summer drives, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the ideal fit for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary significantly based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. Booking in advance often results in lower rates and improved availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in congested areas. Mid-size options offer a balanced mix of cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be accessible. This could also apply to renters over 70 years of age. Always verify the age requirements prior to making a booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements require a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is usually the most advantageous option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fuel alternatives, which can also be acceptable; just ensure you return the car empty in that case.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: You may often incur a surcharge for picking up your rental car at airports, but the convenience it offers might justify the extra cost.
  • Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment transactions.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can shield you from unnecessary expenses and provide peace of mind should the unexpected occur during your trip. Adding car hire insurance when booking through Expedia is straightforward.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning extended road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to avoid incurring extra charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's licence is essential for renting a car.
