  • If you want to have a great vacation in Illinois, consider using car rentals in Plainfield to move around the city. With Plainfield car rentals, you can access some of the tourist attractions in the city, such as Lake Renwick Heron Rookery Nature Preserve and Sable Creek Winery. You can avoid delays with your car rental in Plainfield as compared to the buses and trains, which have specific stops as per their traveling schedule. You can also avoid leaving your four-legged buddy at home when using car rentals, since many public transportation options do not allow animals on trips.
  • The best location to rent car rentals in Plainfield is at O'Hare International Airport (ORD). This is because ORD offers a variety of car rental agencies that you can consider reserving your car for a great trip in the city. For instance, you’ll be served by Hertz, Kyte, Dollar, Budget, Alamo, Avis, Enterprise, or Thrifty. All of these car agencies feature shuttles at Ground Transportation, which drops its customers at the car rental facility to pick up the car keys. However, for reservation purposes, you need to visit the car rental counter located at the main terminal close to the baggage claim area.
  • Before hitting the road with car rentals in Plainfield, ensure you fasten your seat belt to avoid confrontations with the traffic officers on the road. When traveling with kids, they should be in their booster seats or child seats in the back seat of the car. Only children above 12 years are allowed to use the front seats when using car rentals in Plainfield. Always keep your eyes on the road when driving on Plainfield Road and Wolf Road, as these are some of the busiest roads in the city, with pedestrians and cyclists jumping onto the road without warning.

Rush hours in Plainfield begin from 6:00 am to 8:00 am and 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm. On Thursday and Friday, the afternoon traffic is always intense. Thus, you are recommended to move around the city comfortably during the off-peak hours.

Pros:

They called me a day before my scheduled pick up date to tell me they did not have ANY cars to rent me. I will never use them nor recommend them again. I have many friends who rent from them an all were made aware of this. They didn’t give any alternatives or recommendations on who may have them very dissatisfied

Cons:

Never call customer a day before to cancel their rental

Standard SUV

KAYAK
I reserved a small SUV. when I got there all they had was a mini van and a mustang. I only needed the rental for 24 hrs as my car was in the shop. they pulled it into the open garage area and there were several cars back there. they basically told me to take the mini van, or pay extra $35.00 for the mustang. I told them I couldn’t do the mustang because my mom’s walker wouldn’t fit in the trunk. I will NEVER use Budget in Shorewood Illinois again.
