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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you're in need of an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer outings, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the ideal option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you're more likely to access lower rates and improved availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in busy areas. Mid-size rentals offer a balanced combination of cost, 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—might not be accessible. This also applies to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to making a booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements stipulate a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you'll need to return the car with a full tank to avoid additional fees. This is typically the most advantageous option. Other policies may offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling alternatives, which can also be suitable. Just ensure you return the car empty in those instances.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: A surcharge is often applied for picking up your rental car at airports, though the convenience may justify the extra cost.
  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 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, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to evade 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 York with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the United States, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, know that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, your credit card used to hire the car must also 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'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the hire car company before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or go off-roading with a hired car. Please read the regulations before booking!
