10 tips to save on your car rental around Wick Heritage Centre

  • 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 economy car for budget-friendly travel, utilise the filters on Expedia to identify the most suitable option for your journey.
  • Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary based on demand, so it's advisable to secure your car well in advance of your trip. By booking early, you're likely to obtain lower rates and enjoy better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  • Consider a smaller car for savings: Smaller vehicles are typically more economical to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between affordability, 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 be unavailable. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  • Check fuel policies: Some rentals require a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This is generally the best option. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling options, which are also acceptable. Just ensure that you return the car empty in this case.
  • Save on city and airport pickups: You may often incur a surcharge for collecting your rental car at airports, but the added convenience could justify the cost.
  • Know your payment options: Many car rental companies only accept credit cards for payments.
  • Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unnecessary expenses and provides additional peace of mind should anything unexpected occur during your trip. It's straightforward to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  • Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning long road trips, seek rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent incurring extra charges.
  • Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary to rent a car.
