9 tips to save on your International Airport car hire near Chicago

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search based on vehicle type and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for additional space, a convertible for the summer, or an economy car for extra luggage, utilise the filters on Expedia to identify the best match for your journey.
  • Book in advance for some of the best rates: It is generally advisable to secure your ORD car hire as early as possible to benefit from lower rates and greater selection. Reserving your vehicle 1-3 months in advance is optimal, particularly before peak seasons.
  • 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 have limited availability. This may also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to confirming your booking.
  • Consider a budget-friendly car for savings: Smaller vehicles, such as economy or compact cars, are typically more economical to rent and easier to park in congested areas. Mid-size rentals provide a good compromise between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements stipulate a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is usually the most advantageous option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car empty in these cases.
  • Know your payment options: Most car hire companies require a credit card in the name of the driver for security deposits. Debit cards are not always accepted.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides added peace of mind should something unforeseen occur during your trip. It's straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking with Expedia.
  • Check for unlimited mileage: If you plan to spend considerable time on the road, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent extra charges on longer journeys.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.
