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

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and specific features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer enjoyment, or an economical car for budget reasons, utilise the filters on Expedia to identify the best option for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary significantly based on demand, so it's advisable to reserve your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you’re more likely to secure lower rates and enjoy greater availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in bustling areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain types of vehicles—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be accessible. This could also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements necessitate a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid any additional charges. This is generally the most favourable option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fuel choices, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car empty in this scenario.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs an additional surcharge, but the convenience may justify the extra cost.
  • Know your payment options: Many car hire companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car hire insurance can help you avoid unforeseen expenses and provides added peace of mind should any unexpected issues arise during your trip. It’s straightforward to include car hire insurance when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extensive road trips, look for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent any extra charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential to rent a car.
