If you’re keen to avoid overspending on your rental, checkout the tips below which should help you avoid overpaying unnecessarily.

Book in advance

Booking in advance, ideally at least 3 months before your trip but earlier if you think that time will be busy, should mean you have a larger list of cars available - which can save you money by avoiding spending on a car which is perhaps bigger (and therefore more expensive) than you require.

Check your insurance

Some insurance providers cover rental cars, or can add them for a lesser fee, so it’s worth reviewing your policy and where necessary calling your provider to see if you’re covered. One important here is to make sure that your provider has the same level of coverage as required by the rental company - if you use our booking system above we provide this information under the “Important Information” button for each supplier so you can be certain.

Ask about parking

Finding out whether where you’re staying has parking or whether there is affordable parking nearby is a pro tip; if not you could be paying out daily which when summed with the hire prices begins to mount.

Avoid unnecessary addons

As you go through the booking process you’ll be offered addons such as GPS hire and toll transponders - consider whether you will really need these items or if you could work around them. Can you for instance pick up a car phone holder before your trip and instead use your mobile’s maps app?

So your trip is fast approaching and you’re creating the mental list of things to remember or sort before the day; below are some of our recommendations and pro tips to ensure you have everything avoid any nasty surprises on the day.

What you will need on the day

On the day you will need to have to hand an original, valid, unexpired government issued driver’s licence which has a photograph of you. The licence must be valid for the entire duration of your stay.

You will also need a major credit or debit card in your name, which can cover typically 20% more than the cost of renting the vehicle. Some rental companies also have additional requirements for customers paying with a debit card so it’s worth reviewing their requirements before you travel if applicable.

Lastly, keeping a hard copy of your reservation and if necessary insurance documents is always sensible in case your electronic copies are unavailable. Typically the car rental firm can help you without your reservation but it’s easier and less stressful if you have a hard copy and it’s easily accessible.

What to do before accepting the car

It’s generally sensible to ask to review the car before accepting the keys, so you can highlight and ask to be noted any damage or scuffage already throughout. Ask the rep to document anything you find which you are unhappy about but also take pictures on your phone - you phone will date the pictures which means you can evidence that it was how you picked the car up.
