10 tips to save on your car hire in and around Margaret River

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and specific features. Whether you require an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economy car for budget-friendliness, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the perfect vehicle for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices vary based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your car well in advance of your trip. By booking early, you are likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy a wider selection, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in congested areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. 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 available. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. 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 typically the most advantageous option. Others may present full-to-empty or prepaid fueling alternatives, which can also work. Just ensure you return the vehicle empty in such cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: There is often a surcharge for collecting your rental car at airports, but this may be justified by the convenience it offers.
  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 provide peace of mind should any unexpected issues arise during your trip. It's straightforward to add car hire insurance when you book through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning extensive road trips, look for rental options that include unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.
