It is not that difficult to find cheap car rental. You just have to know all the tricks. Learn why it is better to rent the car in the weekend or for a week. Find out why you should prepay the car and how to get a free upgrade. Read about the right insurance and how to get a few extra hours for free.

You can save a lot of money by comparing the various car rental agencies. But it can be very time-consuming, so use an Internet based car rental search engine. Just enter the dates and location, and it will tell you, which car rental agency that is the cheapest.

Try to plan your car rental need for the weekend. Most car rental agencies have special weekend offers, so you can save a lot of money, if you rent the car in the weekend.

Long term rental is another way to rent an inexpensive car. If you need a car for 4 or 5 days, you can often rent a car for a week for the same amount.

Do you want a large Audi instead of a small Fiat? But do you not want to pay for it. Then try to ask for a free upgrade. Often the car rental agencies will give it to you, if the can. The reason is that they want your loyalty, and a cheap way to get it, is to offer you a little extra service. But it is an extra bonus, you cannot be certain to get. So do not plan your whole vacation on it.

There is a lot of money to be saved on the insurance. But before you say no to the insurance, you should read the policy closely, because it can cost you a lot of money, if you are involved in an accident and you are not insured.

On the other hand is the insurance a nice way for the car rental agencies to earn some extra, easy money. So use your common sense and pick only the insurances, you really need.

Normally the rental periods are divided into 24 hours. So if need the car for e.g. 27 hours, it is sensible to wait a few hours before collecting the car; or return it a few hours earlier. You can also try to ask the car rental agency if it is possible to return the car a few hours to late. Often it is not a problem, if you ask for it.

And a final advice: prepay the car. It is normally cheaper than if you rent it at arrival in the airport. So find a good price on the Internet and reserve it. Then it is also faster when you arrive in the airport.
