Cheap Thrifty Car Hire Deals at Millennium Station, Chicago

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.

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.

If you don’t find what you need at Millennium Station with Thrifty, 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.

Most rental companies will require a credit card for the deposit, which is typically frozen in your account. Make sure to inquire about the specific deposit amount and the policy for releasing the freeze.

Ask about potential extra costs, such as fees for insurance or airport charges, to plan your budget wisely.

Before your journey, browse online to see what cars are currently available to find your preferred model.

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

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.
