10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Midland

Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for extra space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to discover the best vehicle for your journey.
Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking early, you're more likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy greater availability, especially during peak seasons.
Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in busy areas. Mid-size vehicles offer a good compromise between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—may not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age requirements before making a booking.
Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate under a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is usually the most favourable option. Others might offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling options, which can also be acceptable, but ensure you return the car empty in that case.
Save on city and airport pickups: There is often a surcharge for collecting your rental car at airports, but the convenience may be worth the extra cost.
Know your payment options: Many car rental companies only accept credit cards as a form of payment.
Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind in case something unexpected occurs during your trip. Adding car rental insurance while booking with Expedia is straightforward.
Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning on embarking on long road trips, look for rental options that include unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.

Can I drive in Midland with my current driver's license?

If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the U.S, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting 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, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car rental.
