- Driving car rentals in Apple Valley can be a unique experience for those who are visiting the city for the first time. First, it is important to note that driving can be fast-paced and aggressive at times, especially on major roads like Highway 18 and Bear Valley Road. Drivers on these roads often have a "get where I'm going" mentality, so it is best to avoid distractions and stay alert while driving. Additionally, there are many rural areas around the city, which may require extra caution when driving Apple Valley car rentals at night, as wildlife can sometimes be present on roadways.

In the summer, the desert heat can raise the temperature in Apple Valley to over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, which can lead to fatigue and dehydration if you aren't thoroughly prepared. Dust storms can also occur as a result of strong winds in the desert, reducing visibility on the roads and making driving cheap car rentals in Apple Valley difficult.

Cons:
Complete waste of my time. I made the reservation and I literally walked to the rental place and was told I couldn’t rent with a debit card and also that they did not have any cars available for rent. I was stuck for 6 hours waiting for a friend to get into town to pick me up. I was also never reimbursed the insurance on the vehicle that i never even rented. Horrible experience and I will never use hertz or kayak to rent a car ever again8,0 Very Good

Pros:
Staff was friendly and knowledgeable...no up sells!Cons:
The first vehicle brought out appeared comfortable but the tires were obviously worn. We were taking this vehicle across the country, thru the desert in 110 + degree weather. There should be better quality control on vehicles and their upkeep. The staff was very prompt and courteous in providing us with a better maintained vehicle.6,8 Okay
Jul 2019
Pros:
Staff at Victorville and LAX were nice and helpful.Cons:
I wanted a Sedan but was given an SUV crossover which I did not want. Nobody explained to me what to do in case I ended up on a toll road. I tried to pay the toll online but because it was a rental I couldn't do that, so I have to pay an exorbitant price. Dropoff at LAX was disorganized.Car hire locations in or near Apple Valley
