KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Salisbury

  • Car rentals in Salisbury offer the most convenient ways of exploring attractions in and around the city. You can easily travel to the Salisbury Historic National Cemetery and Confederate Prison Site. The cemetery holds the remains of over 11,000 unknown Union soldiers. Rental cars also offer more privacy than public transit systems. As such, you can let loose, unwind, and make memories as you get the best of your trip. Lastly, rental vehicles offer more flexibility, unlike public options that operate on fixed schedules and routes.
  • Most flights to Salisbury usually land at Douglas Charles Airport (CLT). Car rentals in Salisbury provide cars right at the airport. Some rental agencies offering onsite services at CLT are Ace, Avis, Airport Van, Alamo, Enterprise, Easirent, Hertz, Dollar, Budget, and MEGA MC. They have rental desks within the terminal, on the Second Floor (Street Level), and the car lot is just a short walk from the terminal. They also provide complimentary shuttle services to their off-airport locations in the city. CLT is a very popular car rental location, therefore; ensure you book your preferred car in advance to secure it upon arrival.
  • There are a few tips you should note before taking a vehicle from Salisbury car rentals to the streets. First, driving is always on the right as the left lane is for passing. The city sees a good number of cyclists, therefore; ensure you stay alert when driving to avoid hitting them. Additionally, all traffic on any two-lane road in Salisbury must stop when a school bus stops to pick up or drop off children.
  • While driving in Salisbury is mostly easy, it can get complicated during rush hour. Salisbury experiences two rush hour periods, just like most cities. The morning rush hour is typically from 7 am to 9 am, while the evening one is usually from around 5 pm to 7 pm. The good news is that all roads do not experience extreme traffic congestion during rush hour. Avoid driving in streets in Downtown Salisbury, like 217 South Main Street, as they particularly get heavy traffic during rush hour.
  • Small hire cars in Salisbury are around 54% cheaper than other car types, on average

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

    Car rentals in Salisbury offer multiple rental options, and the one you choose will largely depend on your preferences and personal needs. You can use the number of passengers or the amount of luggage you intend to have for your trip to choose the right car. Most renters go for vehicles that can handle both urban and suburban roads. Compact cars like sedans are ideal if your trip will be within the urban district. Consider renting an SUV if you intend to tour destinations outside the city. They are ideal for solo travelers and offer easy maneuverability on busy streets.

  • What is the speed limit in Salisbury?

    The speed limits for driving in Salisbury depend on the type of road and its location. Most roads usually have the maximum speeds posted by the roadside's right-hand side. If you're driving on routes without speed signage, keep your speed under 20 mph when in school zones and 30 mph when in residential zones. Unless posted otherwise, the statutory speed limit when driving on roads outside municipalities is about 55 mph. Most highways in Salisbury have speed limits of about 70 mph, which drops to about 55 mph when driving in some sections.

  • Where are the best places to park in Salisbury?

    Salisbury offers multiple parking options. On-street parking is available throughout the city center. Free 24-hour parking is available at Gateway Parking Lot (Corner of E. Innes and Dept. Street), Parking Lot N. Lee Street, 217 S. Main Street, corner of E. Fisher Street and S. Lee Street, and corner of E. Liberty Street and Depo. Paid parking is available on the corner of E. Council Street and N. Main. Expect to pay around $2 per hour for this paid parking lot. It is illegal to park in a handicapped space with no proper signage as it attracts a fine of about $100.

Pros:

I didn't like anything.

Cons:

Better customer service. The most important thing is to have a vehicle when it is confirmed. There should never be a confirmation without vehicles. I won't use Hertz again. Employee was rude and unprofessional.

They canceled my rental before I got the car. I prepaid weeks in advance. They are very horrible to deal with and will never recommend them to anyone. Stay away
