We always try to get you the best rate. However, you can do a couple things to keep your upcoming rental affordable. You can:

• Check the mileage policy to steer clear of any surprise expenses
• Book your vehicle as far in advance as possible
• Avoid airport pick-ups or drop-offs if possible; they tend to be more expensive

That depends on your needs and what activities you want to do in Opelika. If you're having a bit of trouble picking the right car, make sure to read over the chart below. We've compared the most popular categories for you:

Typically, to rent a car in Opelika you must be at least 21. However, there might be an added charge if you are under the age of 25 or for higher category cars in particular. Go through the supplier's terms to determine what the exact fee is before you book your rental.

Insurance is required, wherever you're renting a car. However, you might already be insured by your existing car or credit card policies. Keep in mind, these policies may not provide 100% coverage, and you'll have to add it on to your booking. Check ahead of time and, if it's required, you can just include it at checkout.

Most suppliers give you a choice of fuel policies. Below is a list of the most common ones.

Most rental car suppliers give you a full to full tank policy. We advise returning your car with a full tank. To avoid any added expenses, find a gas station before you return the car.

Unlimited mileage is a good choice for anyone who don't want to worry about watching the odometer their whole trip. Just make sure that your policy really provides unlimited miles. Check the details on mileage limits before you book.

Before you get started on your Opelika trip, check out a few items before you leave the rental lot. It's important to:

• Check out your vehicle and be certain there is no dents or scratches. Be sure to make note of it on the paperwork, or you may get charged for it
• Inspect the trunk to determine if the spare is inflated and the necessary tools to change it are there
• Get familiar with the controls of your car. Adjust the mirrors and seats, and note how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
• Get comfortable operating the navigation and entertainment. It's best to limit any unnecessary distractions when you are driving around a new city
