Cheapest Rental Car Hire Tips.
-
On the right is a collection of the cheapest
rental car hire sites we recommend. Just click on each link and compare the best
of the best.
-
Like most products in the travel industry car
hire prices are very sensitive to supply and demand. It is a good idea to
make you car hire reservation as soon as you decide to travel. As more cars
in a companies' fleet are booked the more expensive they become. Booking
early will also increase the chances of getting the size, model and color
you desire.
-
Be advised that your credit card may have
special discounts or upgrades with a certain car hire company.
-
Also, many car hire companies have
partnerships with airlines, hotel chains or tour operators. The car hire web
site will display who they are affiliated with.
-
One important thing to consider is where you
are going to pick up your rental car. It can be up to 10% cheaper if you can
pick up your car from a place that is outside the airport. Car rental
companies usually have to pay the airport a fee which is often passed on to
you. Some companies based outside the airport are often only minutes away in
a complementary (or cheap) shuttle. You need to weigh up convenience with
price here.
-
Another consideration is what country you
should rent the car from. If you are going to a few different countries on
your trip it pays to rent from the cheapest country you are going to visit.
Check the different prices for each country. Perhaps this will affect which
country you decide to fly to start your trip.
-
Conversely, it may be cheaper to drop your
rental car off in one particular country. You could make this country your
last destination.
-
Local car hire companies can be cheaper than
large international brands. On the other hand, these smaller companies are
often not as efficient as the larger ones in regard to service and maintenance. To get the best service quality and price you will need to
compare a couple of the best company's prices.
-
Remember to investigate peripheral and
associated costs such as drop off charges, required deposits, cancellation
penalties, insurance, and return early fees. These should all be considered
along with the main price. Have a look at the fine print when comparing
deals to see exactly what each one includes.
-
Wholesalers can often offer cheaper prices
than traditional car hire companies. They do not own fleets, but rather rent
cars in bulk and thereby reduce costs. Off peak periods are always the best
times to get the cheapest car hire rates from wholesalers.
-
You can save by considering your refueling
options.
-
Remember to fill the tank before you return
the car and be aware that gas stations near the airport can be relatively
expensive.
-
It is almost always cheaper to refill a car
than to purchase the petrol that was in the tank and return it empty. This
is because it is almost impossible to return your car with a completely
empty tank. Accordingly, you are effectively giving away some of your
petrol.
-
When filling contemplate which country is the
cheapest and remember that cities are always cheaper than the country side.
-
The internet is the best place to find the
cheapest car hire as there are some great efficient and easy to use car hire
web sites. See below for the best of the best.
