KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Plymouth

  • One of the major advantages of renting cheap car rentals in Plymouth is the flexibility and independence it offers. The city is spread out and has limited public transportation options, making it difficult to access some of the popular attractions without a car. Renting a car gives you the freedom to explore the city at your own pace and visit attractions that may not be easily accessible by public transport. The city features several parks and natural reserves that are best explored via Plymouth car rentals. For instance, the Plymouth Orchards & Cider Mill is a popular destination for families with children. You can also access cities such as Detroit, Ann Arbor, and Lansing.
  • Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) is located in Romulus, about 23 miles east of Plymouth. The rental car offices at DTW are located in the consolidated rental car facility, which can be accessed from the terminals via a shuttle. The shuttle pick-up location is outside the baggage claim area on the lower level of each terminal. Flint Bishop Airport (FNT) is located in Flint, about 46 miles north of Plymouth. The rental car offices at FNT are located on the ground transportation level of the airport terminal.
  • Driving in Plymouth is relatively stress-free, and the roads are well-maintained. However, there are some unique rules and signage that drivers need to be aware of to ensure a safe and enjoyable driving experience. One of the most important things for drivers to know is that Michigan law requires drivers to give cyclists at least three feet of room when passing them on the road. This rule is essential for ensuring the safety and protection of cyclists on the road. Another important rule is that all drivers are required to have automobile insurance, which is mandatory under Michigan state law. Therefore, you should always carry proof of insurance with you while driving car rentals in Plymouth.
  • Rush hour traffic in Plymouth typically occurs in the morning between 7:00 am to 9:00 am and evening between 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm, with heavier congestion on highways like the I-275 and I-96. These busy routes can also have higher accident rates. Winter weather can also be a challenge for drivers in Plymouth, as snow and ice can make roads slippery and reduce visibility. Additionally, spring and summer months may bring heavy rain and flooding, which can also make it difficult to drive cheap car rentals in Plymouth. Certain areas may also have muddy zones or roads due to construction or rural conditions.
  • Book your car hire in Plymouth at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

The hertz location didn’t actually have the car I reserved when I got there for my scheduled pick up. I will say the location was extremely busy on the day I picked up, but I did spend 3 hours there before I was given a car. They did end up “upgrading” me to a bigger car, but mostly because I had just been sitting there so long and they still didn’t have the size car I reserved. I like that they gave me an upgrade for free in the end. I could tell they were struggling to keep up with all the problems they were running into that day and they were still nice and kept their cool. I think the communication between hertz and the third party apps needs to be better to ensure the location actually has the cars someone is reserving.

Pros:

The booking process was easy.

Cons:

The vehicle was dirty, it had alarms that popped up when turning it on to let me know that it was out of washer fluid and needed an oil change. There was a significant shake in the steering wheel when driving at 70-75 on the express way. Overall the car should not have been rented to a customer.

They tried to charge me 38 dollars a day more because they did not have the car size I booked. This is NOT the customer's problem. I refused to pay and had to find a new rental company. I will not use Avis ever again. This totally screwed me for my trip.

Employees were great, our Pacifica ran like a charm. But the vehicle was definitely never cleaned before we got it. I didnt notice right away or j would have asked for a new one. There was a dirty sock under one seat and an old receipt under another. And the trunk had about a handful of popcorn just sitting there by the trunk release. The poor cleaning is the only complaint I have.
