Find a Cheaper One Way Car Rental
I'm hoping you can help me. I'm looking to rent a car one way between Seattle and San Francisco this summer and the prices seem to be super high (over $1000). I was wondering if there is any way to get a cheaper rate on a one way rental.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
If you are looking to pick up in Seattle and drop off in San Francisco, the rates will be significantly higher due to the one way fee. Usually the one way fee is not calculated as an extra charge but is calculated to give a much higher rate for each day of the rental. The easiest way to keep the fees down on a one way rental are to keep the number of days (for the one way part!) down to a minimum.
For example if you can pick up a car in Seattle and drop it off in San Francisco within 24 hours, you'll only be charged for one day at the higher one way rate and then you can rent a car in San Francisco for the remainder of the trip.
Also, try to use a discount code if you qualify! There are hundreds of membership programs and professional associations that offer car rental discount codes to their members. You can find a list of car rental discount codes for 8 major car rental companies, at Car Rental Discount Codes and more information here, on One Way Car Rental Tips
Good Luck and hope this helps!
