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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and specific features. Whether you require an SUV for added space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, make use of filters on Expedia to help you discover the perfect fit for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices vary with demand, so it’s advisable to secure your car well in advance of your trip. By booking early, you're more likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy greater availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are typically less expensive to rent and easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between affordability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 years old may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This could also apply to renters over 70 years of age. Always verify the age requirements before making a booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most favourable option. Alternatively, others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling options, which can be acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car with an empty tank in this case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: You may often incur a surcharge for collecting your rental car at airports, but it could 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 provide peace of mind should anything unexpected occur during your travels. It’s straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extensive road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver’s licence is essential for renting a car.

Frequently asked questions

How much is a rental car per day in Wellington?
The daily price of rental cars in Wellington within the past seven days was as low as £34. With your own affordable set of wheels, the attractions in and around this destination are easily within your reach.
What happens if I need to cancel my Wellington car reservation?
We've got good news! You should be given all of your money back if you cancel a minimum of six hours before pick-up. Your itinerary contains details about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all bookings qualify for a refund though, so it's a good idea to go over your car rental policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Wellington?
Busy city streets and tight parking spaces are no match for an economy car — the most sought-after hire type in Wellington. Get behind the wheel of one of these and navigate traffic like a dream. Reliable, affordable and good on fuel, these small cars pack a punch. But Wellington can be explored in almost any sort of hire you like. Compacts, SUVs and full-size vehicles are other options to consider.
How do I find the best car hire deals in Wellington with Expedia?
It's easy to pick up an amazing deal with Expedia. Just choose your wheels, select your dates and pick-up and drop-off locations, and browse offers from popular providers. Save even more when you combine your Wellington car hire with flight or hotel bookings.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Wellington?
Rental vehicle rules in Wellington require drivers to be at least 21. Are you a younger driver? Surcharges and restrictions could apply. Most hire providers impose what's known as a young renter surcharge, which is an extra fee to the car hire cost. Restrictions often apply to the types of cars young motorists can rent as well. Age limits may differ between outlets, so check before booking.
What do you need to hire a car in Wellington?
Your driver's license and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? In that case, you're also likely to need proof of other coverage. Rules may differ from hire company to hire company, so read through your policy.
What is the cheapest car hire in Wellington?
We looked into prices over the last seven days and found that the lowest daily rate was £34. The second lowest price to rent a set of wheels in Wellington was £35 a day. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I hire a car for a month or longer in Wellington?
You can hire a vehicle for a month or longer in Wellington, so go ahead and extend your getaway! Simply enter your trip details into our long-term car hire deals page and book your ideal ride.
Where can I find a Wellington hire car if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the Wellington hire providers you're considering. If you're under 25, some outlets will charge extra fees. It's better to know about this ahead of time so you can budget accordingly. Every car hire company has its own terms and conditions for young drivers, so it'd be wise to do your research.
Can I drive in Wellington with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the U.S, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the car hire process. If you find that an IDP is required, know that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the car must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Some additional requirements for hiring a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as the hire car website before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your hired car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
