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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle type and specific features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for those 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 rates can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your car well in advance of your trip. By booking early, you are likely to benefit from lower prices and greater availability, especially during peak travel periods.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically less expensive to hire and easier to manoeuvre in busy urban 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 fees, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or premium models—might not be accessible. This can also apply to renters over 70 years of age. Always verify the age criteria prior to making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements stipulate a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the most advantageous option. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid fuel arrangements, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the vehicle empty in such cases.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the convenience may justify the cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Many car rental companies only accept credit cards as a form of payment.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help prevent unnecessary expenses and provides peace of mind if the unexpected occurs during your trip. Adding car rental insurance is straightforward when you book through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on embarking on long road trips, look for rental options that offer unlimited mileage to avoid extra charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.

  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car rental.
