Car Rental Armidale

• Picking up your car in Armidale's city centre is often cheaper than at the airport. You'll have to grab a taxi from the terminal, but the rental savings can be worth it.
• If you're visiting during busy times like uni graduation or school holidays, book your car well in advance. Last-minute prices can be much higher when demand is strong.
• Go for a smaller, fuel-efficient car. Unless you're hauling a big crew, a compact car is almost always the cheapest option for both the rental fee and for petrol.
• Always return the car with a full tank of fuel. You'll pay a lot more if the rental company has to fill it up for you. You can even use the FuelCheck NSW app to find the cheapest petrol nearby.
• Consider visiting in the off-season. Rates are often lower in winter (outside of school holidays) when fewer people are travelling to the region.
