KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Wolverhampton

  • Once you have collected your cheap car hire in Wolverhampton, you can set out and explore the surrounding area, and visit some of the most popular tourist destinations in the English midlands.  Birmingham is only 17 miles away and it takes about 30mins to get there by car. The city is famous for a variety of museums that reflect the history of the city, as well as its many football teams. If you would prefer to get out of the city, then we recommend that you take the 30min drive up to Cannock Chase Area of Natural Beauty, where you can enjoy quiet walks in the typical British countryside.
  • While the United Kingdom is not famous for hot weather you may still want to get a Wolverhampton car hire with air conditioning, especially if you are travelling in the peak of summer. You can easily add another driver to the car hire package and share out the responsibilities of driving around Wolverhampton. You can also request baby seats and cushioned booster seats, should you need them, and we recommend hiring a vehicle with a navigation tool or sat-nav to better help you find your way around Wolverhampton.
  • When collecting your cheap car hire in Wolverhampton, you will be asked to show a valid driver’s licence that you have owned for at least 12 months. Normally, you are expected to pay by credit card, unless you have already contacted the rental company and agreed to pay by debit card. If you are younger than 25 years old, then it is likely that you will have to pay a surcharge for young drivers to cover increased insurance costs.
  • Wolverhampton is served by major road arteries travelling north, south east and west, all of which connect to the inner ring road of the A4150 at the city centre. If you relish driving, then a car hire in Wolverhampton offers dynamic flexibility to go wherever the road takes you, near or far. If you’re thinking about a couple of short hops before lunch, visit Himley Hall and Park about 7 miles to the south via the A449, or the RAF Museum Cosford, which is about 10 miles west along the A41.
  • Many of the major international hired car agencies have offices at Birmingham Airport (BHX) which is about 25 miles to the southeast and is the closest major airport to Wolverhampton. On the Ground Floor of the airport’s Arrivals Hall near Costa is where you’ll find the Car Hire Centre. From there, it’s a 5-minute walk to the parking garage, where you can pick up your car hire in Wolverhampton.
  • The service sector and aerospace industry employ a large number of people in Wolverhampton. Coupled with university students and tourists, you should expect heavy pedestrian and bike traffic not to mention lots of vehicles, which can clog the junction points along the A4150 during the morning and evening rush hours. There are three roundabouts east, west and south along this critical roadway, which could create bottlenecks for vehicles, but inside the ring traffic should flow more freely.
  • If you hate traffic queues, then be sure to avoid the A4150 during the early morning (07:00-09:00) and early evening (08:00-20:00) when gridlock is heaviest. You may also experience backups along the M6 to and from Birmingham Airport, so be sure to allow for plenty of travel time just in case. During football season Molineux Stadium, home of the Wanderers Premiership team, becomes a magnate for travelling fans, so make sure you’re well on your way come Sunday afternoon to bypass the game time crush and plan ahead to avoid the exodus returning back.

FAQs about car hire in Wolverhampton

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Wolverhampton?

    Economy cars like the Mini and other compacts offer distinct advantages over larger vehicles for fuel management and parking, making them ideal for managing the city’s streets. If you’re visiting with the family, however, an intermediate SUV or people carrier is more sensible depending on the size of your entourage.

  • What’s the speed limit in Wolverhampton?

    40mph is the legal speed limit within the environs of the city and on the A4150 ring road, but this may be reduced for roadwork or construction, so pay attention to speed signs when driving your Wolverhampton car hire as you explore. Remember that roundabouts and junction points are key areas where traffic cams and CCTV are stationed so drive with caution as you encounter them. Accelerate to 70mph on the M6 leading to/from Birmingham, but keep the dial below 50mph on the A460 and the A41 carriageways.

Pros:

Everything was quick and easy, even when I returned the vehicle two minutes before closing time. There is a Shell station next door to fill your tank before returning the car.

Cons:

The car was a little loud and rough on the highways, but I got a small compact. They are all like that to some degree.

Car hire insurance in Wolverhampton

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) & Theft Protection Waiver

Some Wolverhampton car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Wolverhampton.

Deductible

Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your Wolverhampton car hire.
