10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Stockton-on-Tees

  • Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for the summer months, or an economical car for budget considerations, utilise the filters on Expedia to help you discover the best option for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, making it advisable to secure your vehicle well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you are likely to benefit from lower rates and improved availability, particularly during peak travel seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more affordable to rent and simpler to park in busy urban areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  • Age guidelines: Drivers under the age of 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain types of vehicles—such as SUVs or premium models—may not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements may stipulate a full-to-full fuel policy, which requires you to return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is usually the most advantageous option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling choices, which are acceptable as well; just ensure you return the car empty in this scenario.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: There is often a surcharge for collecting your rental car at airports, but this may be worthwhile for the convenience it provides.
  • Know your payment options: Many car rental companies exclusively accept credit cards for payment.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and offers additional peace of mind in case of unexpected events during your trip. It is straightforward to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, seek out rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra costs.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a vehicle.
