10 tips to save on your car hire in and around Imperial Beach

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for sunny days, or an economical car for budget-friendly options, utilise the filters on Expedia to identify the best fit for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates can vary depending on demand, so it's advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you're more likely to obtain lower prices and enjoy a wider selection, particularly during busy seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in busy urban areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 might encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or premium models—may not be available. This also applies to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements prior to making a reservation.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals mandate a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This option is generally the most beneficial. Other policies may include full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are also acceptable. Just ensure you return the vehicle empty in this case.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: There is often a surcharge for collecting your rental car from airports, but the added convenience may justify the 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 offers peace of mind should anything unexpected occur during your trip. Adding car hire insurance when booking through Expedia is straightforward.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning lengthy road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra costs.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.
