10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Marina del Rey

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by vehicle type and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for added space, a convertible for warm summer days, or an economical car for budget-friendly travel, use the filters on Expedia to help you discover the perfect 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. Booking in advance often leads to lower rates and better availability, particularly during peak seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Compact cars are typically more affordable to rent and easier to manoeuvre in busy areas. Mid-size rentals offer a good compromise between price, 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 luxury models—might be unavailable. This may also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age requirements before finalising your booking.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rentals operate on a full-to-full fuel policy, requiring you to return the car with a full tank to avoid extra charges. This is often the most economical choice. Others may offer full-to-empty or prepaid refueling options, which can also be convenient; just remember to return the vehicle empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at the airport may incur a surcharge, but the added convenience can make it worthwhile.
  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 provide peace of mind in case of any unforeseen incidents during your trip. It's simple to add rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you're planning lengthy road trips, look for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is essential for renting a car.
