When spending your hard earned dollars, car rental specials can help save you money. If you go to car rental websites you usually see a tab for “hot deals”, and usually you will see their best or current offers advertised on the home page. Summer being such a busy travel time, it’s important to source and book ahead.

When you’re looking to save some cash on weekend or weekly car rentals, you’ll want to do some research to make sure that that any available specials will satisfy your needs. Booking ahead also improves the chance of a free upgrade, always a welcome surprise.

Weekend and Weekly Specials may only apply for certain locations. As airport car hire is very popular, you may discover that there are no discounts or specials applied at the airport depots. There are a few great ways to save money on your car hire. You may wish to consider if you will require a new or used vehicle as the used vehicles are generally cheaper. As only National car rental agents are located within the airport, if you are wishing to hire a used vehicle, you may be required to catch a shuttle or make your own way to the local operating agent.

When booking a discounted weekend car hire, ensure that you meet the requirements that will provide the discounted rates. For example, you may need to book the vehicle for a minimum amount of days and the pick up day may need to be Thursday. Some weekend specials will only apply for pickups on Friday or Saturday.

Special booking rates may require you to select a particular size vehicle and will not allow for any further upgrades. You may also have a time limit that will determine the special and if you go over the maximum time you may need to pay additional fees.

With car rental, weekly rates will cover bookings for 5 – 7 days. If you are lucky enough to find a weekly special, generally you would have to include a Saturday night within the booking to be entitled to the discount. You should also make sure to read the terms and conditions that are provided for your car hire as if you find yourself needing to return the vehicle early, you may be hit with more charges.

When you collect your car hire, you are responsible for the vehicle as soon as you drive away. Therefore it is imperative to ensure you have noted any defects or damages that may be visible to you and have them included in your contract. This is to avoid your credit card being charged for any damages listed upon return of the car.

Remember, if finding a car rental special to meet your needs is proving elusive, make sure to check if you at least qualify for a car rental discount from an association or professional membership that will help lower your rate.And as always these days, take full advantage of the internet and it’s ability to source nearly all the deals available.Safe travels from all the staff.
