KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Woodhaven

  • Driving car rentals in Woodhaven is a convenient and enjoyable way to get around this city at the southern tip of the Detroit metropolitan area and just west of the Canadian border. In Woodhaven car rentals, you can save time compared to using public transportation and you can get to where you need to be on your own timetable. In car rentals in Woodhaven, you can enjoy local sites, such as the Marshlands Museum and Nature Center, the Detroit Institute of Arts, and Historic Fort Wayne. Woodhaven car rentals give you the freedom to drive south to Toledo, north to Michigan's Upper Peninsula, and east to Toronto.
  • Situated less than 15 miles northwest of Woodhaven, the Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) is an easy and convenient place to secure Woodhaven car rentals. Follow the signs to Ground Transportation, where you can catch a free shuttle to the Rental Car Campus. You can catch this shuttle from either the McNamara or the Evans terminal. After you return your car to the lot where you got it, you can catch the complimentary shuttle back to your DTW terminal.
  • For anyone driving car rentals in and around Woodhaven, be advised that people in the Detroit metropolitan area tend to drive very fast. Interstate traffic traveling at 85 mph is not uncommon. If you are in the left lane going the speed limit, drivers will be honking and waving at you because you are going too slow and should get out of the lane. Drivers in Woodhaven also tend to drive through a yellow light. Therefore, if you are the first car at a light, wait a few seconds before you go when it turns green, since a car will probably be turning left in front of you through the yellow light.
  • In Woodhaven and the surrounding Detroit metropolitan area, rush hour is from 6 am to 10 am and then from 3 pm to 7 pm on weekdays. Friday's traffic is particularly congested. If you are driving car rentals in Woodhaven, consider investing in a GPS add-on in order to help you navigate around the worst traffic. From November to April in Detroit, be prepared for harsh winter weather, including snow, ice, very cold temperatures, and freezing winds. Always clear your car of snow, ice, and frost before driving it, stick to plowed roads, and if you skid on ice, steer into to the skid until you regain control of your car.
  • Medium hire cars in Woodhaven are around 53% cheaper than other car types, on average

For this reason, whether it is winter when you will be driving through harsh weather or warmer weather when you will be driving on damaged roads, an SUV makes an ideal choice for those driving car rentals in Woodhaven. In the winter, an SUV offers traction and power for the snow. In the warmer months, it provides an easier ride over roads with cracks and potholes. If you are uncomfortable driving a larger vehicle, consider renting a smaller SUV; many small SUVs are not much bigger than a station wagon.

  • What's the speed limit in Woodhaven?

    I-75 running north/south virtually through the middle of Woodhaven has a 70 mph speed limit, as do other nearby Interstates, including I-94, I-275, and I-96.

Residential areas, school zones, and business districts in Woodhaven have 25 mph speed limits.

  • Where are the best places to park in Woodhaven?

    In the winter, Woodhaven declares a Snow Emergency if there are three or more inches of snow on the ground, and therefore, no cars may be parked on the street. In Woodhaven, parking is usually free on residential streets, though check signs for time limits. Most retail businesses have their own parking lots with free parking for patrons and visitors. If you travel into downtown Detroit, parking meters are around $1 per hour from 7 am to 10 pm, usually with a 2-hour time limit.

Booked with directly with Hertz website days in advance, reservation confirmed by Hertz, hour before Im scheduled to pickup they call to say they have no cars and that they’ll try to find one…..wtf. I show up an hour and half later than my pickup time they still have no car, but found one a half hour away and expect me to drive out there to get it. Finally they offer me a Lyft to take me out there. Bottom line I got a car 3 hrs later than when I needed it to get on the road. Unprofessional for a rental car company to have no cars to cover rental reservations that they have confirmed.
