10 tips to save on your car hire around Oxford Brookes University

  • 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 the summer, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the best option 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 likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy a broader selection, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 years may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate under a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is usually the most advantageous option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fuel options, which are acceptable as well; just ensure you return the car empty in such cases.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: You will often incur a surcharge for collecting your rental car at airports, but the convenience may make it worthwhile.
  • Know your payment options: Many car hire providers exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can assist you in avoiding unnecessary expenses and provide you with added peace of mind should something unforeseen occur during your trip. It's straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking with Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning long road trips, search for 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.
