10 tips to save on your car hire in Lanarkshire

  • Use filters to find the right car: Streamline your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you're in need of an SUV for added space, a convertible for those summer days, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to help you discover the ideal match for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices vary with 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 rates and enjoy better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Generally, smaller cars are less expensive to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals offer a balanced combination of affordability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain types of vehicles—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the most convenient option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure to return the vehicle empty in this 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 provides.
  • Know your payment options: Many car hire companies primarily accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind in case something unforeseen occurs during your trip. Adding car hire insurance while booking with Expedia is a straightforward process.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning lengthy road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to steer clear of additional charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.
