May 18th, 2009 | by admin |

If you think you just book a rental car and pay for it you would be mistaken as there is much more to it than that especially if you want a discount.

Choose three to four car rental firms that fit your wants and needs, do this either through the phonebook, or through the internet. Spend some time carrying out this task because in some respects it the most important if you want to locate the best car rental deal.

It is always a good idea to check out if the car rental agency is running any special deals at the time you phone as you could save yourself quite a few dollars. If you are looking for more reductions in your car rental, ask the office if they have special rates for customers who use certain air carriers for example.

 

Choose a pickup point; find one that is near you so it won’t be any hassle, some car rental companies pay for the cab ride you have to take, some pick you up at your home or at the airport to take you to your rental. It’s nice having a large car, the comfort can’t be beat but it comes at a cost so if you are on a budget, stick to what you need.

The next thing to do, after you’ve totally decided on which to take, remember to reserve it, some car rentals include the reservation fee on the overall rent, some make it out to be an extra fee, you should also look out for this when get a car rental.

 

If you are looking purely to save money then you need to follow some of these pieces of advice.

Some people swear by asking what no-cost upgrades are available when they get to the car rental office first thing in the morning.

If you want a free upgrade, then there is a very good chance that you will get one if you are early because the car rental office will be waiting for most of their economy fleet to be returned.

Try getting an internet car rental as these types of rentals offer internet only discounts. More and more you will find car rental companies online that will find a car if all you give them is how much you are prepared to spend.
