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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economical car for budget considerations, utilise the filters on Expedia to identify the best option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary significantly based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your vehicle well ahead of your travel date. By booking early, you’re more likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy a wider selection, especially during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size options strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age requirements before finalising your booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate under a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional fees. This is typically the most economical option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling alternatives, which can also be acceptable; just ensure you return the vehicle empty in this instance.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge; however, it may be worth the extra cost for the convenience it offers.
  7. Know your payment options: Most car hire companies only accept credit cards for transactions.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provide peace of mind should anything unforeseen occur during your trip. It’s straightforward to add car hire insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extensive road trips, look for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.

Can I drive in Yakima with my current driver's license?

Lastly, your credit card used to hire the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Some additional requirements for hiring a car in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to hire a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the car hire company before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or go off-roading with a hired car. Please read the regulations before booking!
