KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Oxford

  • Hiring a vehicle from one of the top Oxford car rentals would be a wise move. If you rent a car, you can move from destination to destination swiftly, directly, and comfortably at whatever time you like. You'll also be able to visit attractions in neighboring towns like Grenada, Corinth, Marion, and Olive Branch.
  • The nearest active airport to Oxford is Tupelo Airport (TUP), which lies approximately 47 miles from the center of the town. At this airport, the car rentals in Oxford you can rent from our Budget and Hertz. The counters for these agencies are inside the terminal, while the pickup lot is a short distance from the terminal building. This being the case, you can easily walk to both parts of the airport. The rentals offered at this airport are always in demand. To avoid missing the one you fancy, book it in advance.
  • A majority of road users in Oxford adhere to the road regulations. However, not all are that disciplined. Occasionally, some motorists overtake or turn without warning, while some pedestrians cross unexpectedly, even at points without crosswalks. With this in mind, when driving in this city, ensure you maintain a safe distance between you and the vehicle ahead and watch out for pedestrians.
  • In Oxford, traffic is usually prevalent from 7:00 am to 9:00 am and 4:30 pm to 7:00 pm. During the morning, the streets heading into the city are the most congested, while in the evening, the most congested roads are the ones heading to the neighborhoods. If you're certain you will have to drive during these hours, have a navigation system installed. It will help you figure out the lesser congested routes.
  • Book your car hire in Oxford at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Intermediate hire cars in Oxford are around 32% cheaper than other car types, on average

Before settling on a particular vehicle, consider the number of people you'll use the car with and the baggage you'll have. If you plan on traveling alone, renting an Economy rental would suffice. On the other hand, if you intend to travel with up to four other individuals, consider hiring a Standard/Full-size Sedan or a Minivan. Additionally, consider the destinations you intend to visit. Suppose you want to visit destinations served by dirt and gravel roads. If so, it would be wise to hire an SUV, given that these vehicles are suited to such roads.

Unless otherwise posted, when driving in this city, you must not speed past 15 mph on alleys and 30 mph on residential and commercial districts as well as school zones. On West Highway 6, you must not exceed 65 mph when a bit far from Oxford and 55 mph as you approach the city. The noted speed limits are heavily enforced. As such, adhering to them at all times is recommended to avoid a heavy, unnecessary fine.

  • Where are the best places to park in Oxford?

    If lacking parking is one of the reasons you're hesitant about renting a vehicle from one of the top car rentals in Oxford, worry not since this city boasts paid on-street and off-street parking lots as well as free parking lots. There are on-street parking spots near Courthouse Square, North Lamar, South Lamar, Van Buren Avenue, and Jackson Avenue at the cost of about $1.25 an hour.

Off-street parking lot spots are also relatively affordable, costing about $0.75 per hour. Free parking is at the OPC/Water Tower Lot and the 2nd to 3rd floors of the Oxford Square North Parking Lot.

The staff was friendly, but this location only rents to in-state drivers. I was required to post a $500 deposit in order to rent. For several days before the rental I called every day in order to even get the rental ok’d by the manager.
