10 tips to save on your car hire in and around Oak Harbor

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and specific features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer outings, or an economy car for cost-effectiveness, utilise Expedia's filters to assist in locating the ideal vehicle for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can 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 a wider selection, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles tend to be less expensive to rent and are easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between affordability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. 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—may be unavailable. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  5. 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 fees. This is generally the most favourable option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fuel alternatives, which can also be acceptable; just ensure you return the car empty in such cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: There is often a surcharge for collecting your rental car from airports, but this may be worthwhile for the added convenience it provides.
  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 offers peace of mind should any unforeseen events occur during your trip. It’s straightforward to add car hire insurance while booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extensive road trips, seek rentals that include unlimited mileage to prevent incurring additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver’s licence is essential for renting a car.

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your hire vehicle.
