Cheap Car Hire at Imperial County Airport, IPL

Some rental companies offer a free tank of fuel with your rental. Be sure to understand the terms, including how much fuel you need to return the car with and any potential fees for not meeting these conditions.

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.

Many rental companies have apps that provide real-time updates and notifications about your pickup.

Have your driver’s license, credit card, and rental confirmation readily available to streamline the pickup process.

Be prepared for potential wait times at the rental counter, especially during peak travel seasons.

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.

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 secure the lowest prices, book your car hire at least 2 weeks in advance. December is typically the cheapest month for car hire from Imperial County Airport, IPL.
