KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Apex

  • Car rentals in Apex have a number of advantages compared to other means of transport like public buses and taxis. If you are to stay in the city for a considerable period and want to visit various parts of the city, such as the popular Halle Cultural Arts Center, it is more cost-effective in the long run to rent a car than to rely on buses or taxis. Rental cars also come with the benefit of giving you the liberty to decide your own departure times and appropriate routes to take to your destinations, something that is not possible with public buses, which have fixed routes and departu.
  • If you are arriving in Apex via Raleigh-Durham Airport (RDU), you can conveniently connect from the airport to the city center, your accommodation, or any other destination of your preference using a rental car. Various Apex car rentals, including Avis, Hertz, Enterprise, and Budget have their car rental offices inside the airport. There is a free airport shuttle to facilitate your movement from the Arrival Terminal to the car rental facility located a short distance from the baggage collection area.
  • When driving your car rentals in Apex with children, you must adhere to North Carolina’s Child Seat laws. According to these laws, every child below 16 years must always travel in a restraint device that is appropriate to their age, height, and weight. When driving in Apex’s city center, you should be aware of pedestrians who commonly jump into the roads without checking oncoming vehicles. Consequently, it is advisable to maintain a lower speed as much as possible when driving on any of the streets within the city center.
  • The use of rental cars in Apex, like any other vehicles, gets considerably difficult during the morning and evening rush hours, typically from 6:30 am to 9:00 am and later from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm. During this time, most roads in the city experience heavy traffic, with the worst situation being at the section of US 1 East of Ten Ten Road. Therefore, if you must drive your car through this section, it is important that you begin your journey some minutes before the supposed departure time.
  • Intermediate hire cars in Apex are around 34% cheaper than other car types, on average

So when you book something online and pay one fee and then they change the fee price when you get there which is not stated during booking so the experience was bad so I just walked away from the buy all together already was paying 100 bucks for one day then they say there is a 300 deposit fee naw it don’t work like that I will never ever rent a car again.
