KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Worcester

  • Cheap car hire in Worcester can be found at a few places within the city limits if you prefer not to hire one at Birmingham Airport. Sunnycars keeps an office just outside the Worcester Foregate Street railway station, which is convenient for those arriving from Birmingham or Bristol. Budget has two offices across the Severn: near Cripplegate Park and the University of Worcester, ideal for visiting friends or relatives. Persons in or near Dines Green and St. John’s can locate Keddy by Europcar, Firefly and Hertz on Bromyard Road.
  • Don’t forget a driving licence is one of the essential items to obtain a hire car in the city, so produce it or a recent hardcopy along with proof of address, proof of insurance and your valid credit card at the office. Persons with prior bookings should have their confirmation details and the card used to complete the transaction on hand. If you’re a non-UK driver, we highly recommend getting an International Driving Permit to avoid complications.
  • Be sure your passengers are wearing seatbelts and you plug in your hands-free mobile device before starting any journey in a Worcester hire car. Foreign motorists should know to drive on the right-hand side of the road and that speed signs are indicated in mph instead of km/h. There are also a few roundabouts within city limits, so remember to yield to oncoming traffic in order to prevent accidents. Drink driving in the UK carries stiff penalties and is dangerous for all concerned, so exercise good judgment when you’re out and about.
  • The Cotswolds are known as an area of particular natural beauty in the UK, and one of the easiest ways of getting to all the tourist attractions is to book car hire in Worcester and base yourself there. The number one thing that the city is known for is Worcester Cathedral, so you’ll want to tick that off you list first. Gheluvelt Park is another scenic place to visit, and if you’re in the mood to drive further out of Newport along the M5 motorway, you’ll be rewarded with a great day out at Worcester Woods Country Park.
  • The nearest airport to Worcester is Birmingham International Airport, which is a little over 27.5 miles away from the city. Collecting the vehicle you chose when you booked your Worcester car hire is really easy at the airport, rather than taking public transport into the city first. National, Enterprise, Avis, Budget and many others have their front desks in the Arrivals Hall, and from there you simply need to take a short 5-minute walk to Car Park 4, which is where the designated hire car area is located.
  • When you’re driving in Worcester and on the roads surrounding it, you’re likely to encounter roadworks at some point. The council constantly repairs and upgrades roads to the point where it has almost become a fixture in the city. The M5 is a busy road, and much of these road works occur here. Like many other cities in the UK that are becoming more environmentally aware, Worcester encourages cycling and walking, so expect to encounter plenty of that form of traffic as well as vehicular.
  • Rush hours in Worcester are predictable, starting in the early morning at roughly 07:30 and peaking at around 08:30. For some reason, Thursdays are the most congested days on average. In the afternoon, prepare for dense traffic from around 16:00 to 17:30. The M5 is the big culprit here, and best avoided at these times if possible, particularly in the vicinity of the J4A M42. Other roads to be circumspect about are the A456 Kidderminster Road, the A450 Worcester Road and Station Drive.
  • 25% of our users found a car hire in Worcester for £22 or less
  • Book your car hire in Worcester at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Standard car hire in Worcester are around 36% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about car hire in Worcester

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

    Your choice of car hire in Worcester comes down to your reasons for visiting the city. The heavily congested central areas suggest that you get only as much car as your needs dictate, so that you can save on petrol costs while sitting in traffic, and to give you more agility. A compact city car or saloon will do the trick, and if you’re travelling alone you should consider a really small economy model. If you’re going to be exploring broader Worcestershire in the city’s vicinity, you can happily book an SUV or a larger saloon model. Tour groups can book a minibus or one of the bigger MPV models.

Car hire insurance in Worcester

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) & Theft Protection Waiver

Some Worcester 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 Worcester.

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 Worcester car hire.
