KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Hartlepool

  • Hire a car in Hartlepool, so you can freely drive around and see more of the city and its surroundings without being limited to public transport. Suppose you are visiting as a tourist in Hartlepool. In that case, you can drive to historical sites like The Museum of Hartlepool and Heugh Battery Museum. When you hire a car in Hartlepool, the museums are approximately 30 minutes drive from the town centre. If you take the number 7 bus, it will take an hour to get there.
  • If you’re flying in, you will land at Durham Tee Valley Airport, where you can find car hire desks right in the arrivals and departures halls. Some car hire companies at Durham Tee Valley Airport are Enterprise, Free2Move, Keddy by Europcar and Sunnycars. Some car hire companies don’t have a desk at the airport but have an office at a nearby location offsite. In that case, they usually offer a shuttle to transfer you to their car hire facilities.
  • When driving in Hartlepool, always watch out for pedestrians and cyclists. It's important to avoid hitting them when driving in the city. You should also always remember to carry your car hire paperwork agreement in the vehicle in case you get stopped by the police. You also will need to take your driver’s licence and a credit card when driving in Hartlepool. It's also useful to carry a second form of photo ID, such as a passport.
  • The streets of Hartlepool get congested during the rush hours. The morning peak hours run from 8 am to 10 am and also from 4 pm to 6 pm. You should avoid driving in the town centre during these hours. It would also be best not to drive near schools during pick-up and drop-off times. If you're planning a day trip, it's best to head out early before rush hour traffic or later after it stops. Similarly, when you return, plan to arrive before or after peak times, so you don't get stuck in traffic. One advantage of Hartlepool car hire is that you can choose to stop off somewhere for dinner on the way home.
