KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Ozark

  • Ozark is a small city located in the southwestern part of the Missouri. It offers a variety of attractions and activities for tourists and residents alike. Renting a car in Ozark will give you the freedom to explore the surrounding areas and attractions at your own pace. For instance, Ozark is located near several state parks and recreational areas, such as Table Rock Lake and Mark Twain National Forest and Ozark car rentals are essential for getting there and for exploring each location thoroughly. Additionally, renting a car in Ozark is more cost-efficient than taking a taxi or ride-share service as most taxi services in Ozark charge high rates, especially for longer trips.
  • Springfield-Branson Airport (SGF) is about 30 miles from Ozark. The rental car offices at SGF are located in the terminal building near baggage claim. The cars themselves are on the lower level in the parking lot. Branson Airport (BKG) is about 50 miles from Ozark. The rental car facilities at BKG are located inside the airport terminal building on the first floor near baggage claim. Fort Leonard Wood Waynesville Regional Airport (TBN) is 70 miles from Ozark and there are no onsite rental car facilities. However, passengers can make arrangements for rental cars in advance and have them delivered to the airport.
  • You can anticipate driving cheap car rentals in Ozark to be generally easygoing with well-maintained roads. However, like most small towns, there are still a few things to keep in mind when driving in the Ozark area. Drivers in Ozark tend to be polite and respectful of one another. In addition, trucks are frequently seen on the highways and interstates, as the region is a thoroughfare for long-haul truckers.
  • Rush hour in Ozark generally occurs between 7 am to 9 am and 4 pm to 6 pm on weekdays. The city is served by several highways, including US-65 and State Highway 14, which can become congested during peak times. Winter weather can make driving conditions difficult, particularly when the roads are coated with snow, ice, or sleet. Ozark receives an average of 15 inches of snowfall annually, usually between December and February. Therefore, drivers should be cautious when temperatures drop below freezing, as black ice can form, making driving car rentals in Ozark hazardous.
  • Luxury hire cars in Ozark are around 35% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Ozark?

    When choosing Ozark car rentals, a reliable and sturdy SUV or crossover would be the best type of car to rent. Ozark has a mix of rural and urban areas, with many hilly and winding roads. An SUV or crossover is made for navigating these types of terrains, providing better traction and stability than many smaller vehicles. Another benefit of renting an SUV or crossover is their higher ride height, which offers greater visibility on the road, especially on winding country roads.

  • What’s the speed limit in Ozark?

    The speed limit in Ozark varies depending on the type of road and the location. In business districts, the speed limit is generally 25 mph, and residential areas typically have a limit of 30 mph. State highways within city limits have a higher limit of 55 miles per hour. On most rural highways outside city limits, the speed limit is typically 60 mph, while interstates allow up to 70 mph. There are also school zones in Ozark with a speed limit of 20 mph during school hours.

  • Where are the best places to park in Ozark?

    There are several free parking options available for cheap car rentals in Ozark, including street parking, public parking lots, and parking garages. Generally, parking is free in the downtown area, which is walkable and has ample public parking. However, some private lots may charge a fee for parking, so it is essential to pay attention to signage and read policies before parking in these lots. In addition, there are also public parking lots near parks and other attractions that may require payment or have a limited amount of time that a vehicle can park. Rates typically vary depending on the duration of parking, but parking is generally affordable and costs between $1 to $2 per hour.

A Rental Confirmation doesn’t mean anything. I had 3! Count them THREE “Confirmed” Reservations and when I went to Pick Up my rental…they had zero cars available or any size or model. Nothing. Zero Inventory. So basically your reservation is first come first serve no matter what kind of bull**** confirmation number you have. Y’all are worse than the airlines.

I called on 10/19/23 to confirm rental car pickup at Springfield airport; Avis rep confirmed airport pickup. Upon arrival I was told to pick up rental at Avis in Springfield. I had to take Uber (cost: $26.94) to Avis location in Springfield.

Pros:

I like the vehicle that I was given

Cons:

I have never had the best luck with Avis. Several times, I have been charged twice for a rental. And it’s taken over a month to be reimbursed. One of those times, I had to reach out three times to get my refund.
