Top tips for hiring a car at Atlanta De Kalb/Peachtree airport
- One of the nice features of car rental at Atlanta De Kalb/Peachtree Airport (PDK) is that it is a great combination of great cost-effectiveness and convenience as compared to other methods of transportation to get you from the airport to the center of Atlanta. While there is train, bus, and taxi service, each of these has drawbacks compared to renting a car. This is especially true if you plan on making a longer stay and you will need transportation a number of times during your trip.
- There is only one car rental at Atlanta De Kalb/Peachtree Airport provider available at this airport, but the good news is it's a large national chain most people are familiar with. Their location is offsite from the airport, but they do offer a complimentary shuttle service to get you from the airport to their location. If you prefer, they will also deliver the vehicle to the airport so it is waiting for you after you arrive on your flight. It is important to note that this rental car service is for private flights only and you will need to provide the flight number of your flight to reserve a car. It is also important to note that this location is only open during business hours Monday through Friday and not on weekends.
- When you are ready to return your car rental at Atlanta De Kalb/Peachtree Airport, all you need to do is bring it back to the same rental car location, note your mileage and your gas level, and then take your contract and your keys back to the counter or drop them in the dropbox. Once you've done that, the rental car company can take you on the shuttle back to the airport. If you are returning after hours, you can do so, but bear in mind there will be no shuttle service available to take you back to the airport so you will need to arrange your own transportation.
- Although this is a smaller airport, it still has busier times such as in the early morning and late afternoon hours. Because of that there may be longer waits for shuttles to and from the rental car company as well as to pick up your Atlanta De Kalb/Peachtree Airport car rental once you are there. That is why it is so important to make sure you make a reservation for your rental car.
- Book your car hire at Atlanta De Kalb/Peachtree airport at least 5 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Cons:
Office hours were wrong online and the office closed sooner. They didn't call to let us know or check in to see if we had issues with our flights that might delay our arrival. Upon check in, the staff was extremely rude to me and my family and didn’t offer any solutions. They kept saying “I am sorry we are closed”. My reaction was obviously out of frustration because of the long flight and trip to get there but also because of their lack of empathy and care. The Manager suddenly walked in and help but not before accusing me of speaking “loud” to their employees when that didn’t happen. My family was with me at all times, they are witness of my behavior, and now we are waiting in front of a closed office (which wasn’t supposed to be) and an unfriendly staff that provided no solutions to our situation until the manager came. The manager was not helpful right away, her response was also “I am sorry we are closed and we clocked out”. Ultimately, I kept pleading and asking for help, she open the office and finally gave me a car. The car - We got a car that had almost 52,000 miles on it, bad brakes, bad balancing of the tires and something was off with the wheel bearings. The car was dirty inside and out, you would think they had a car cleaned in these Covid times or that they would have a clean car waiting for us since we had a pre-paid reservation but NO, everything inside and outside was dirty and dusty with open bottles of water and trash all over the vehicle. We needed the vehicle and go on with our vacation so we had no choice but to keep the rental as it was. We didn’t feel safe driving it but it served its purpose. We called Hertz to try to exchange or replace the vehicle the day after we rented it and they gave me an incident # to take to a nearby Hertz store which we did but the manager told me they didn't have any vehicles available. So we had to keep the car in the condition it was and try to have a good vacation. Sometimes it is what it is but we definitely feel we lost our money with this rental and will never ever use this service or company again.2,0 Poor

May 2021
Pros:
Staff was friendly and helpful somewhat. My luggage got stuck in the back of the SUV Tod picked me up in Marta station and I waited 45 mins but could not find the keys to open the truck. They did drop it off at my hotel so very grateful to them. The booking was misleading as I thought they would pick me up at jackson hart field airport.Cons:
They did not tell me hertz location was closed on saturday and where to leave the car. I called the number on the form and they told me to leave car at Atlantic aviation. I was promised a ride back to Marta rail station but he failed to tell me he would not be there on Saturday. Just very disappointed with how communication went.4,0 Mediocre

Pros:
The rep that assisted me, I want to say his name is Brandon was extremely helpful and friendly. Even though they didn't have the vehicle I reserved on hand he assisted me with obtaining something equal to (or better) to fulfill the reservation at no extra charge. I have NEVER received that type of assistance from other places. I was VERY pleased with the service and will make Enterprise my priority rental place.Cons:
Nothing, everything was GREAT!!3,2 Poor

Pros:
Friendly staff at pick up and lower price than I expected. But then charged higher price at drop off! WTF? That Sucked! I called and talked to the staff at that location in Duluth,GA and they would not work with me to reverse the extra money I was charged. Also the car had a broken windshield wiper switch and I had to hold it the during the massive thunderstorm for over 1.5 hours while I drove. Very dangerous not to have both hands on the wheel in a massive rain. Not to mention light care and bad brakes. Test your cars before someone gets hurt! I will be NOT be considering Enterprise nor any affiliated rental car companies in my future rental cars and searches.Cons:
