KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Franklin

  • Franklin car rentals offer a more flexible transport option for travelers connecting to different parts of the city. Unlike relying on public transportation, car rentals in Franklin offer the freedom to visit off-the-beaten-path destinations. Using car rentals in Franklin enables easy access to nearby attractions such as Arrington Vineyards, Natchez Trace Parkway, and Leiper's Fork. With a car, visitors can maximize their time and make the most of their trip to Franklin and its scenic surroundings.
  • Enjoy self-drive from Logan International Airport (BOS) by renting a car from one of the car agencies at the airport. At BOS, rental car offices are in the Consolidated Rental Car Facility (CRCF). This facility serves all terminals at the airport, making it easily accessible for travelers. To reach the CRCF, there is a convenient and free shuttle called the Rental Car Center (RCC). The shuttle operates 24/7 and runs every 5-6 minutes, providing a seamless and efficient way to get to the rental car offices from any terminal at Logan Intl Airport.
  • When driving car rentals in Franklin, knowing a few key things is important. Franklin follows the standard road rules of the United States, including driving on the right-hand side of the road. It's crucial to obey traffic laws, speed limits, and road signs. Be cautious of pedestrians, especially in downtown areas, as they may not always adhere to crosswalks and may step into the road unexpectedly. Avoid distractions while driving and keep a lookout for cyclists and motorcyclists. Remember that driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly prohibited and can result in severe legal consequences.
  • You will experience considerable challenges driving car rentals in Franklin during the morning and evening rush hours. Rush hour times may vary, but the peak traffic hours are between 7 am and 9 am and between 4:30 pm and 6:30 pm. During these times, certain roads tend to be heavily affected, such as Franklin Parkway, Main Street, and the intersections around downtown. The winter season, which typically spans from November to February, can pose additional challenges for driving. Snowfall and icy conditions during this time may lead to slower speeds, reduced visibility, and increased chances of accidents.

As it was a last minute rental due to an accident, Hertz did not have the suv available that I reserved. The manager was rude stating this and offered me a mini van or sedan, or I could go somewhere else. I chose to go somewhere else. No apologies or anything. The next rental place at least called me to tell me they did not have an suv available so I was able to plan ahead rather than driving there for nothing

Did not pick up car. Canceled reservation and was still charged over 400$. When I call they say I can only be reimbursed by sending a email. I emailed them over 5 business days ago. No response. Would never EVER rent from a Hertz again in my life

Pros:

This was the second time I dealt with the agent Ben and he is truly amazing at his job. The location is limited on vehicles so I always call the office before booking and if he doesnt have something he makes sure he gets it.

Cons:

The rates are too high for the lack of selection at this store. The inventory needs to be worker on.
