Very helpful employees who did their best to assist me when my credit card wasn't working properly. No aggressive tactics to sell insurance, easy returns, and no need to charge electric vehicles. I will only rent from them now because of how nice the employees are!

Why book a rental car with Free2move?

Renting a car has never been easier or more affordable

Every year, millions of travellers look for cheap car rentals as soon as they arrive at their destination. Whether it’s for a business trip, a spontaneous weekend getaway, or a family holiday, the demand keeps growing. The market used to be dominated by a few traditional players, but things have changed: thanks to comparison platforms, it’s now possible to find the best deal in just a few clicks.

Booking a car directly at the airport helps you avoid public transport queues, save time, and enjoy complete freedom during your stay. Modern platforms like Free2move make the process simple by comparing offers from multiple rental companies, guaranteeing you the fairest price without compromising on quality.

Major UK airports: perfect starting points

The UK welcomes millions of international visitors every year, and its major airports are key hubs for car hire. Booking your car in advance ensures availability and saves valuable time.

  • London Heathrow (LHR) – The UK’s largest airport, offering everything from compact city cars to luxury sedans.

  • London Gatwick (LGW) – Ideal for both leisure and business travellers, with a wide choice of affordable cars.

  • Manchester (MAN) – A great base for exploring Northern England, the Lake District, or Wales.

  • Edinburgh (EDI) – Perfect for touring Scotland’s Highlands and historic cities.

  • Birmingham (BHX) – Conveniently located in the heart of England, connecting you to the Midlands and beyond.

At each of these airports, booking online with Free2move allows you to secure your car in advance and enjoy competitive rates—even during peak travel seasons.

A wide range of vehicles for every need

One of the main advantages of renting a car at the airport is the variety of options available. Whether you’re travelling solo, as a couple, with family, or on business, there’s always a vehicle to suit your needs.

Economy cars – Perfect for city driving and short trips at a low cost (Ford Fiesta, Vauxhall Corsa, Fiat 500). SUVs and crossovers – Great for families and luggage-heavy trips, offering both comfort and safety (Nissan Qashqai, Kia Sportage). Saloons and estates – Ideal for long-distance journeys, combining space and comfort. Electric and hybrid vehicles – An increasingly popular eco-friendly and cost-efficient alternative. Luxury and convertibles – Perfect for travellers wanting to explore the countryside or coastlines in style.

With Free2move, you can filter cars by price, category, or features (automatic gearbox, GPS, child seats) and find the best value rental without compromising on quality.
