KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Garland

  • As you plan your trip to Garland, you should consider getting a car rental to help you move around the city easier. With car rentals in Garland, you can visit different areas in the city and check out the popular attractions here on your terms. No need to deal with annoying bus schedules or having to order an Uber any time you need to go somewhere. You can also visit neighboring cities such as Dallas and Fort Worth and check out the various attractions there.
  • President George Bush Turnpike (TX-190), a toll road that can take you to Plano, has a toll booth at Rowlett Gantry. On State Highway 75, you’ll find two toll booths near Prairie Creek Park. You need a TollTag account to pay your toll charges at the booths. If you don’t have this account, you will need to call the North Texas Tollway Authority (NTTA) office to pay your outstanding fee with a bank card.
  • There are two airports near Garland where you can get your car rental; Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and Dallas Love Field Airport (DAL). DFW has Rental Car Center, which hosts over five rental companies, including reputable brands such as Budget, Avis, Hertz, Enterprise, and Alamo, among others. To get to the rental center, you can board the shuttle bus from the pick-up area on the terminal's lower level. DAL, on the other hand, also has a Rental Car Center that is located between the Parking Spot 2 and Dallas Love Field Garage B. They also have a shuttle service that ferries people from the airport terminal to the rental car center.
  • If you choose to rent an electric car in Garland, Volta, SemaConnect, and ChargePoint stations are scattered across the city.

  • Driving in Garland is quite easy as long as you obey the basic traffic rules and apply common sense. For instance, always exercise extra caution when approaching intersections. If you’re making a right turn, you don’t need to wait until the lights are green, but you should double-check your mirrors just in case there’s a cyclist approaching the turn at the same time. You should also beware of jaywalkers within the city center as it has become quite common in recent years.
  • Ensure the kids are buckled in a child safety car seat when riding in cheap car rentals in Garland. Babies from birth to two years old should ride in rear-facing car seats as long as their safety seat's manufacturer allows them. Children above three can travel in forward-facing car seats until they are five, while those who outgrow forward-facing car seats can ride in booster seats. Children taller than 4’9” are permitted to use seat belts.
  • While traffic in Garland isn’t a huge problem, rush hours from 7 am to 9 am and from 4 pm to 6 pm can be quite hectic. Some of the busiest streets are Broadway Boulevard, West Walnut Street, and Forest Lane. Avoid them during those hours if you can, and take an alternative route. To help you navigate the streets much easier and evade traffic, you can install a GPS to your car rentals in Garland so that you can have a better sense of direction when driving around these streets.

The station owner over-charged me. He changed the contract price so that he could charge almost $60 extra. I want a refund.
