10 tips to save on your car hire in and around Summerville

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you require an SUV for extra space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economical car for budget reasons, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary according to demand, making it advisable to secure your vehicle well ahead of your trip. Booking in advance typically allows you to lock in lower rates and enjoy greater availability, especially during peak travel seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are generally more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in busy areas. Mid-size vehicles offer a balanced combination of cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age restrictions prior to making a 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 generally the best option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fuel choices, which are also acceptable. Just ensure you return the vehicle empty in those cases.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the added convenience may justify the cost.
  • Know your payment options: Many car hire companies only accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unforeseen expenses and provide peace of mind in case something unexpected occurs during your trip. It's straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's licence is necessary to rent a car.
