KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Hinckley

  • Car hire in Hinckley ensures you enjoy greater flexibility than if you were to make the same journey using public transport. Not only can you drive directly to your destination whenever you please, but you don’t have to abide by the timetables put in place by trains and buses. For example, you can get to Atherstone by car in around 18min. This same journey via public transport not only takes longer, but is also indirect.
  • Birmingham Airport (BHX) is one of the closest terminals to Hinckley, making it a great place to pick up your hire car from. Once you have passed through immigration, you will have a great selection of car hire companies to choose between. For example, Alamo is located inside the arrivals hall, whereas Green Motion is can be reached with a free shuttle. Upon arrival at your chosen agency, you’ll need to complete the paperwork and provide a photo ID to staff at your Hinckley car hire provider. Once this is all complete, you’ll be free to continue your onwards journey.
  • Using a car hire in Hinckley, you will find that it’s a popular commuter town to nearby cities. With jaywalking not being illegal in the UK, you should drive with vigilance through the centre, as people often cross the road in areas that are not designated crossings for pedestrians. Cycling is also a popular sport across the UK, with Hinckley being no different, so you should regularly check your mirrors to ensure there are no cyclists nearby.
  • When driving a Hinckley hire car you’ll find traffic gets very busy during rush hour, when many of the locals are commuting to nearby cities such as Birmingham, Leicester and Coventry. Rush hour is from approximately 8:00 to 9:00 and 17:00 to 18:00, so if you don’t enjoy driving on busy roads, it’s best to avoid these times and opt for the late morning or early afternoon. Mansion Street is one of the busiest roads, so if possible try and use an alternative such as Regent Street.
  • Small hire cars in Hinckley are around 57% cheaper than other car types, on average
