Cheap Budget Car Hire Deals at Preston Station, Melbourne

When booking, check if the rental company offers extras such as GPS or child seats. These can enhance your driving experience but may incur additional costs, so it's wise to factor them into your budget.

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.

Prefer an automatic car? Budget offers automatic car rentals at Preston Station. Just select ‘automatic’ when searching, and we'll handle the rest, ensuring you get the convenience of an automatic transmission without any hassle.

Before leaving the rental location, inspect the car for any existing damage and ensure it’s documented. Take photos if necessary to avoid disputes when returning the vehicle.

If you're traveling with pets, confirm the rental company's pet policy before booking. Some companies allow pets but may have specific fees or restrictions, so it’s best to clarify in advance.

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

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.
