Cheap Budget Car Hire Deals at Terminal 3 Station, Chicago

If sharing driving responsibilities, check the policies regarding additional drivers. Some companies charge fees for each extra driver, while others may include it for free under certain conditions.

Many rental companies require payment by credit card and may not accept debit cards. If you only have a debit card, check the rental company's payment policies in advance and look for suitable options.

Ask the rental company about their specific pickup and drop-off processes for a hassle-free experience.

To save on refueling costs when departing from Terminal 3 Station, 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.

If you don’t find what you need at Terminal 3 Station with Budget, you might discover more car hire options in Chicago, which can occasionally be cheaper. However, keep in mind that the additional cost of transferring from Airport to Chicago might result in higher overall expenses compared to picking up your rental car directly at the airport.

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.

If you're looking for more comfort or features, inquire about upgrade options at the rental desk. Sometimes, upgrades are offered at a discounted rate at pickup.
