KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Smyrna
- Domestic and international visitors who love exploring new places should consider coming to Smyrna, Georgia, thanks to the city's numerous wonderful attractions. Because there are so many places you can explore during your stay in Smyrna, it isn't easy to explore them within a short visit, especially if you are using shuttle buses to move from one place to the other. You can explore many places in Smyrna if you hire a rental vehicle. You can, for instance, drive to the Smyrna History Museum, 50 miles away from the city center, in about an hour and see some magical historical artifacts. Nature enthusiasts can use car rentals in Smyrna to access Marietta Square within minutes and relax in the vast green space since the park is only around 20 miles away from the CBD.
- Follow Georgia's child seat regulations if you plan to drive your rental car with children on any Smyrna roads. According to Georgia's child seat regulations, all children under the age of eight must be securely restrained in the rear seat of a vehicle using a child passenger restraint system, like a car seat or booster seat. Furthermore, the law stipulates that children in the backseat of a vehicle must be at least 8 years old or 4'9" tall and be restrained. When using cheap car rentals in Wichita Falls, you can get a special car seat for your kid as part of your rental car agreement.
- Most international visitors and other visitors coming to Smyrna from far-flung states arrive in the city by air. If you are coming to this Georgian city by air, you can easily hire a car to take you to the destination of your choice, regardless of whether the destination is around or far from the city. All the airports serving this city, including Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport, Columbus Metropolitan Area Airport and Atlanta Peachtree Airport have car rental agencies within their premises. A car rental agency near Columbus Metropolitan Area Airport at West Britt David Road features car rental agencies such as Hertz, SIXT, and Budget. Considering that the offices of these prominent car rentals in Smyrna are near the airport, you won't need to take a shuttle bus to book a car to drive while vacationing in Smyrna.
- Smyrna's landscape is primarily flat, with a few minor hills and valleys. There are various reasons why Smyrna drivers need to exercise caution when using Smyrna car rentals. One major issue of concern is that Smyrna's weather can sometimes be erratic, with occasional strong storms and copious amounts of rain. You need to be keen when operating your rental car, especially if you are not used to operating a vehicle in rainy or stormy weather since this can make the roads slick and increase the danger of accidents.
- Driving on the streets of Smyrna is pretty easy, considering the roads on the city's outskirts are well tarmacked, wide, and in good condition. However, driving within Smyrna's city center can be hectic because streets such as Adams Drive 30080, Afton Court 300080, and Adams Place 30082 have many pedestrians and bikers. That's why you must be cautious while driving on such streets while using Smyrna car rentals. Ensure you observe a speed limit not exceeding 25 mph to avoid hitting bikers and motorists.
- Users can select from a variety of flexible and more reasonably priced transportation options with cheap car rentals in Smyrna to go around the city. However, renters must be at least 21 years old to reserve a car from any cheap car rentals in Wichita Falls. Also, if you are under 25, you might not be able to hire certain car types, such SUVs and double-cabin pickups. When picking up your rental car, you must also have a valid driver's license with your name and current home address on it.
- Driving in Smyrna has its fair challenges, like driving in other busy cities. The roads entering and leaving the city center are usually full of traffic. Some roads prone to high traffic congestion, especially during rush hours, include 2190 Atlanta Road, Afton Way 30080, and Alcott Drive. Avoid driving on such congested roads during peak hours. Alternatively, use the roads hours before or after peak hours to avoid wasting time on the way due to traffic congestion.
- Book your car hire in Smyrna at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Mini car hire in Smyrna are around 35% cheaper than other car types, on average

Apr 2021
Pros:
I booked the car through kayak, and after waiting 30 minutes, they told me that the car, which was to be ~700, was going to be 1100 because they were going to give me a RARE upgrade. I told them I didn't want an upgrade that I had to pay for. I wanted what I paid for. So, after 20 more minutes, the guy I was dealing with went in the back and didn't come out. Some other guy came out and ultimately helped me. Also, I explicitly told them I did NOT want satellite radio. When I got the bill, it included a $35 fee for the satellite radio. Also, they gave the car bone empty. The fuel light came on 2 miles after I drove out of the parking lot. The car itself (A Ford Fusion) was great. The process to get it was very poor. Btw - It was a Hertz rental facility.Cons:
Pickup was NOT good. ~50 minutes to get the car. Plus the bait and switch, satellite radio fiasco and followed up with no gas in the car. I won't do this again2,0 Poor
Mar 2021
Pros:
It was cheap. The car worked (except for two of the rear speakers).Cons:
Easily the worst car rental experience of my entire life. The staff at the pickup location were unprofessional, unprepared, and dishonest. They did not have the van I prepaid for, but told me on the phone prior to pickup that they did. When I arrived and was stranded at the location, they took an hour to start working with me, then told me that there was no van (and hadn't been one for days) and tried to make me accept a sedan instead. They told me that the only way I would get a van was going to the airport, but refused to arrange a way for me to get there. They kept implying that they were going to have to just cancel my reservation unless I just accepted a smaller car. After two hours, they "found" a large SUV that, while still not as big as I needed, was workable. They then tried to strongarm me into paying an upgrade fee and again implied that unless I agreed to it they would cancel my reservation. After waiving the upgrade fee, they then acted like they did me some huge favor and tried to guilt me into paying extra again. After all this, the salesman told me that they would charge $2.00 per gallon to pre-purchase my fuel. When I pointed out that the wall sign said a higher price, he told me to ignore that because it was out of date. Shame on me, I agreed. Guess which amount I was charged? To put a cherry on top, when I tried to drop the vehicle back off at the location using the after-hours key drop they told me to use, I arrived to find the only entrance to the facility gated and locked. I had to sit in a nearby parking lot for an hour waiting for the 1-800 number to finally work with me, and now I have to take time off of work to make another trip out there. I haven't actually returned the vehicle yet after corporate extended my dropoff time to today. But how much do you want to bet they try to stick me with some extra fees?2,0 Poor

Cons:
After booking the rental, i received a call the Saturday of the rental, less than 3 hours prior to pickup stating the vehicle was not available.4,8 Mediocre
Aug 2020
Pros:
The location was close.Cons:
Facility was very dirty. In Bathroom, the cabinet holding supplies was busted, the tissue holder was broken and the soap dispenser was broken. The facility including sink and toilet were filthy. Common area floor was dirty as well. Reservation was for a full size SUV. It was NOT a full size SUV. The person said that it seats 7 so it is rated as a full size SUV. First, there is NO way it could fit 7 people, maybe if you include 4 children. A smart car can fit 5 so does that make it a compact SUV? Felt cheated so I have lost trust in Hertz.Enterprise Rent-A-Car

Sep 2017
Pros:
Car was comfortable. No hassle at pick up. Car drove well. The employee at pick up was very sweet and helpful. Easy to get to pick up location.Cons:
Interior of car smelled awful and never really got better. No other option for stereo besides boring and one dimensional XM radio. Really would've appreciated being able to plug my device in without having to download app. When I droppped off the car there ended up being hidden fees and charges during the rental that I was not informed of until after my card was charged. I was also charged for extra rental hours even though I brought the car back on the date I was supposed to before the location closed. The car also had terrible gas mileage and I was forced to spend a lot more on gas than I should have. All in all it was a shady and unprofessional experience. At least now I know to stay away from Thrifty locations. The employee I dealt with at drop off was rude as well.7,2 Good
