Cheap Eco by Europcar Car Rental in Nottingham

When renting a car, understand the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means you return the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means you return it with the same level of fuel. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

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.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Nottingham, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70

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.

If you plan to share driving, check if the rental company allows a second driver and whether there are additional fees. Some companies offer free second driver options under certain conditions.

Steer clear of peak traffic times to minimize delays and frustration.

Familiarize yourself with local habits to enhance your safety and compliance on the road.

Be aware that some rental companies impose age restrictions or additional fees for drivers under 25. Make sure to check the company’s age policy when booking.
