Hiring a Car in Ireland: Good to Know

How to Find the Cheap Car Hire Deal in Ireland

Review Car Size and Type

Select a car that fits your needs in terms of size and type, especially if you're traveling with luggage or a group.
Choose the right vehicle for your needs

Check for Promotional Offers

Before booking, check for any promotional offers or discounts that may be available. Many rental companies provide seasonal deals or discounts for early bookings.
Look for discounts and deals

Confirm drop-off location to avoid confusion.

Before finalising your car hire in Ireland, make sure to confirm the drop-off location with your provider. This will help you save time and prevent any misunderstandings at the end of your car hire period.
Confirm your drop-off location

Confirm Mileage Policy

Some rentals may have mileage caps. Check the details to avoid extra fees if you exceed limits.
Understand mileage limitations

Choose a fuel policy that saves you money.

When renting a car from Ireland, choose a car hire deal with a “Full-to-Full” or “Same-to-Same” fuel policy from suppliers like Payless, Budget, Flizzr,Hertz, 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.
Choose a cost-effective car hire fuel policy

Understand Rental Insurance Options

When renting a car, it's crucial to understand the different insurance options available. Selecting the right insurance can protect your finances in case of an accident. Common options include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and liability insurance, so make sure to confirm the required coverage with the provider.
Choose the right rental insurance

Be prepared for card requirements at pickup

Many car hire deals in Ireland require a credit card for the deposit. If you only have a debit card, use our website's filter to find options that accommodate it or consider getting a credit card. Make sure the main driver’s card is used to prevent any extra charges.
Find car hire deals that accept debit cards

Check license and age requirements.

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