Cheap AVIS Car Hire in Seattle

Car-sharing services can be a flexible and cost-effective solution for brief journeys.

Before driving away in Seattle, thoroughly inspect the car for any damage. Document any existing damage with photos or video to avoid disputes later on.

When hiring a car in Seattle, choose a car hire deal with a “Full-to-Full” or “Same-to-Same” fuel policy from suppliers like AVIS. These policies ensure you only pay for the fuel you use, helping you avoid unnecessary costs. While a “Full-to-Empty” policy might seem convenient, it can often be more expensive if you don’t use all the fuel.

When renting a car, it's crucial to understand the different insurance options available. Selecting the right insurance can protect your finances in case of an accident. Common options include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and liability insurance, so make sure to confirm the required coverage with the provider.

Choose car hire suppliers with high ratings, as these often indicate better service, newer cars, and more convenient pickup locations. For Seattle, we have car hire deals from 14 suppliers. Among them, AVIS has a rating of 4.7, Payless has a rating of 4.7, Budget has a rating of 4.7 and National has a rating of 4.6.

Before renting a car, check if your personal car insurance covers rental losses. Many personal auto insurance policies and credit cards offer coverage for rentals, which could save you from extra insurance fees.

Research fuel prices in the area where you'll return the vehicle. Filling up at a local station may be cheaper than paying for fuel through the rental company, especially if they charge higher rates.

Select a pickup location that is convenient for you. Some rental companies offer locations within the airport for quick access, while others may require shuttle transportation.
