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

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Streamline your search by selecting vehicle type and desired features. Whether you need an SUV for additional space, a convertible for warm summer days, or an economy car for budget-friendly travel, use the filters on Expedia to discover the best option for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental prices can vary significantly with demand, so it’s advisable to secure your car well ahead of your trip. By booking in advance, you're likely to lock in lower rates and have a wider selection, especially during peak travel seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to navigate and park in bustling areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle categories—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70. Always verify the age requirements prior to booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals adhere to a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional fees. This is typically the most advantageous option. Others might offer full-to-empty or prepaid refuelling choices, which can also be convenient. Just ensure you return the car empty in that scenario.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the added convenience may justify the extra cost.
  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 unexpected expenses and provides peace of mind in case something unforeseen occurs during your trip. It's simple to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you plan on taking long road trips, search for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is necessary for renting a vehicle.
