How long do you need a car for?
1 month car hire
Need a car for 28 to 30 days? Our one month rentals start from £24 a day on the UK mainland. For most people a month of local driving fits comfortably within 1,000 miles. If you commute more than 20 miles each way, look at 2,000.
2 month car hire
A two month rental suits a project, a move or a longer stay. You get your chosen allowance each month, so 1,000 miles a month means 2,000 miles across the rental. Add up your usual weekly miles to pick the package. At the end of the first month we will contact you for your mileage and a new agreement to sign.
3 month car hire
You can hire for up to 90 days, which is just under three months. Allowances run monthly, so choose the package for your normal month. If your plans change and you need longer, contact our Rental Operations team before your check-in date to talk about a new rental agreement.
What happens if you go over your mileage?
Every extra mile costs 20 pence, whichever package you choose. If you take the 1,000 mile package and drive 1,300 miles in a month, you pay for 300 extra miles. If you expect to go over your allowance most months, a higher package may suit you better.
When your rental renews, we will call or text you for your current mileage. Please give an accurate reading. Without one, your rental can go overdue and extra charges may apply.

Why choose Avis for your business long-term car hire?
A short-term car lease tends to last between 3 months and 1 year. Typically, the monthly leasing costs are much higher for shorter contracts, meaning that even the cheapest short-term car lease can be costly.
Many car leasing companies will want you to make an initial payment and at the end of the fixed term, there may be an option for you to buy the car.
When you choose long-term car rental with Avis, you benefit from much more flexibility without any long-term commitment. Our long-term car hire deals come with insurance, maintenance and road tax included for up to 90 days.
