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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle types and desired features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer outings, or an economy 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 based on demand, so it’s advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you’re more likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy a wider selection, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals offer a balanced combination of cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be available. This could also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, which requires you to return the car with a full tank to avoid extra fees. This is typically the most advantageous option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling alternatives, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car empty in such cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: There’s often a surcharge for collecting your rental car from airports, but it may be worthwhile for the added convenience it offers.
  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 you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind should something unexpected occur during your trip. It’s simple to add car rental insurance when reserving through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you’re planning extended road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to steer clear of additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's licence is necessary to rent a car.

Can I drive in Nashville with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the United States, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required, know that you'll also have to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car rental company before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with your home vehicle. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
