Cheap Thrifty Car Hire in Sapporo

A compact vehicle is easier to park and maneuver in congested city streets.

Some rental agreements come with mileage limits, while others offer unlimited mileage. Make sure to review the mileage policy to avoid unexpected fees.

When hiring a car in Sapporo, choose a car hire deal with a “Full-to-Full” or “Same-to-Same” fuel policy from suppliers like Thrifty. These policies ensure you only pay for the fuel you use, helping you avoid unnecessary costs. While a “Full-to-Empty” policy might seem convenient, it can often be more expensive if you don’t use all the fuel.

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.

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.

A credit card is often required for deposits, especially with suppliers like Thrifty in Sapporo. If you only have a debit card, use our website filter to find suitable offers or consider obtaining a credit card. Ensure that the main driver’s card is used to avoid any additional 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 Sapporo, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70

Car hires from Thrifty in Sapporo are charged per day. If you rent for more than 24 hours, you will be charged for an additional day, so plan accordingly.
