10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Baia Mare

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting the vehicle type and specific features you require. Whether you're in need of an SUV for additional space, a convertible for those warm summer days, 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 significantly based on demand, so it is advisable to reserve your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you're more likely to secure lower rates and enjoy a wider selection, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Generally, smaller cars are more affordable to rent and are easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and some vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might be unavailable. This also applies to renters aged over 70. Always verify the age requirements before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Certain rentals require a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is typically the best option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling options, which are also acceptable. Just ensure you return the car empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the convenience may justify the extra cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help prevent unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind should anything unexpected occur during your trip. It's straightforward to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you are planning extensive road trips, look for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to steer clear of additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.
