Cheap Thrifty Car Rental Deals at Wattenscheid, Bochum

Before returning the vehicle, clarify the return procedures with the rental company. Knowing where to drop off the car and any required inspections can streamline the process.

If you don’t find what you need at Wattenscheid with Thrifty, you might discover more car rental options in Bochum, which can occasionally be cheaper. However, keep in mind that the additional cost of transferring from Airport to Bochum might result in higher overall expenses compared to picking up your rental car directly at the airport.

Before traveling, familiarize yourself with local driving laws and regulations. This can help you avoid fines and ensure a safe driving experience.

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.

To save on refueling costs when departing from Wattenscheid, look for deals with a 'full to full' tank fuel policy, or even better, a free tank fuel policy, as opposed to a 'half-full to full' one.

Before booking, review the rental agreement for any hidden fees such as airport surcharges, additional driver fees, or late return penalties. Understanding these can help you budget more effectively.

Bring along your driver's license, ID, and credit card, as these are required for the rental.

Most rental companies will require a credit card for the deposit, which is typically frozen in your account. Make sure to inquire about the specific deposit amount and the policy for releasing the freeze.
