KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Canton

  • Consider booking Canton car rentals anytime you are in the city for a vacation with family, a business trip, or a romantic weekend with your significant other. The most affordable means of transport in Canton is the public buses run by CATS Transportation. However, their disadvantage is that they only provide transportation services between 5 am and 9:30 pm and have fixed routes. Car rentals in Canton are, therefore, a better option because you drive your car at any time in the city and use any route that is more convenient. One of the places in Canton that you can visit with your rented car is Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium, where you can enjoy excellent sports and entertainment.

If you must use this road to get to your destination, consider departing about 20 minutes before the supposed time.

The office rented our car to someone elas and when we arrived, they argued with us. We did not leave with a car and had to hire a taxi to take us elsewhere. Horrible office.

Rented a minivan weeks in advance, showed up and they didn’t have the vehicle. Vehicle did not perform the necessary functions I needed from the minivan, was in need of service per the dealership, and was significantly less fuel efficient. Spent hundreds more in gas and could’ve just used our personal SUV for the trip for free. Manager was unwilling to fix the issue and tried to lie about the situation to avoid doing anything. No wonder this company is on the verge of bankruptcy

The current climate with rental cars is terrible! To pay over $200 for a one day rental is crazy. Especially now that i have to fight with my KIA to get it covered. This is outrageous but I needed to get home to FL from GA...very disappointed in the industry as a whole.

Avis informed me that there was NO car available for me because they were low on inventory. I never picked up the a car from them and they still charged me $50 - which I am disputing. Buyers beware !!!

Pick up location was closed and I was not notified. Large SUV was not available and a mini van was a suggested replacement. A mini van is not a large suv and if I'd wanted a mini van I'd have reserved one
