Specilising in premium airport locations and offering a great choice of cars from economy compacts to full-size saloons and MPV's. To get the best car hire rates follow our top recommendations. Book Early - like air tickets, most car hire rates increase the closer you are to the proposed travel dates. Avoid Holiday Periods - this might seem a little strange however hire car rates will increase during the most popular times. If possible therefore, try to avoid the busy periods such as school holidays, France during August, national holidays in the USA, Christmas in Australia, etc. Book Full Days - the vast majority of hire companies charge per 24-hour period. You can sometimes save a days hire if you collect your car slightly later or take it back a little earlier. For example it might be cheaper to use the shuttle bus on the final day rather than hang onto the car. Equally, you may prefer to collect your car the day after you arrive. Avoid The Airport - you will usually be charged a slight premium to collect or drop-off near an airport. This is based upon demand so consider alternative locations such as a hotel or rental office downtown. Excess Insurance - the majority of rentals via Shop4CarHire are inclusive of CDW and many include the excess. However, if the excess is not included it may be worth considering a separate car hire excess insurance policy. If you plan to be away for more than 7 days these are definitely worth considering.
