KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Ballwin

  • Car rentals in Ballwin will give you the flexibility and freedom to explore this suburban city as well as the surrounding areas. Its proximity to the Missouri River means there are a lot of parks in the area that can best be accessed by driving. Having a vehicle is often the only way to get around, as public transportation options are limited. Ballwin is located along Route 66, so with a Ballwin car rental, you can enjoy this scenic and historic drive.
  • Ballwin car rentals are best to get at the airport. The nearest airport to Ballwin is the St. Louis Lambert International Airport (STL), 20 miles away. Here you will find several different agencies both on-site and close to the airport. Upon arrival, look for the ground transportation signs. There are pickup locations at exit 17 outside T1 or exit 12 outside T2. A free shuttle service will be provided by any agencies that are located off-site. Most agencies require that drivers be at least 25 years old. You must also have a valid driver’s license and major credit card for them to keep on file. We suggest booking your car ahead of time to ensure that you get your preferred vehicle type.
  • Driving a car rental in Ballwin, MO can be smoother with these tips. First, respect speed limits and traffic rules, as enforcement is strict. Use navigation apps to get around busy areas like Manchester Road during rush hours. Be prepared for changing weather conditions, especially during winter.

Watch for pedestrians, as Ballwin promotes a pedestrian-friendly environment.

Parking can sometimes be limited in crowded areas, so it’s a good idea to plan ahead. Traffic rules are strictly enforced in the area, so be mindful of the speed limits and local driving laws.

Cons:

Had to go find someone to help me when I first got there. Stood upfront for a few minutes and finally wondered around until I found help. Van was lowest quality out of options listed online. Then drop off location was closed and directions hard to read on drop off box. For cost of rental this was not the experience I expected.

Pros:

The vans were ready as promised.

Cons:

I picked up two 15 passenger vans and our group of 20, with luggage, was prepared to head out on a several hour trip. Since the vans were not filled with gas we had to stop, before getting started, to fill the tanks. This was a bit annoying. And, to bring the vans back with the same amount of gas was impossible so I was charged for several gallons of gas upon returning the vans. Again, a bit annoying.

You wrote a review for Avis Rent A Car 2 days ago 1.0 star rating 7/25/2018 An unbelievable event that is stranger than fiction. I made a reservation on 6/28/18 for a 3-day rental of a full size car in St. Louis, MO, beginning yesterday, 7/24/18. Yesterday, before making my flight to St. Louis, I realized that the reservation had been made for a location off the airport property, so I called the corporate customer service number to see if this could be changed. It turns out the PGA event in St. Louis left no cars available at the airport. I thanked the agent and ended the call. When I got to the off-site location (via Lyft but no fault of Avis), the agent there told me my reservation had been changed to June of next year in Alaska for a SUV vehicle! I called the corporate customer service number and explained my dilemma, and they said they could do nothing to change it. Because of the PGA event, this off-site location was out of cars (except for the one I had reserved but then lost due to the change in reservation). I filed a grievance and asked to be called by a supervisor in 24 hours. No call. No car. No help. So I have been stuck taking several Lyft rides to my business appointments. Unbelievable.

Rented online after my car was totaled in 9’ of water. They allowed me to rent at 22 and just required a fee which I was willing to pay. However when I got there well before my pick up time to get the car they ended up flagging my ID and would not allow me to have a car. I have a clean record and again, my age was known before allowing me to book. I was left without a car for a week and had to take off work for the whole week.
