KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Springfield
- It’s worth the effort to look into car rentals in Springfield for your next trip. Beyond cutting out the stress of navigating bus routes and other types of public transportation, renting a car in Springfield opens opportunities to see some incredible sights close to the city. Springfield visitors can use their car rental to visit the Wilson’s Creek National Battlefield, a landmark where a major Civil War battle was fought. Also, the Fantastic Caverns, with a ride-through tour, and the Dickerson Park Zoo, are other popular sites outside of town. A car rental in Springfield could be an important factor in making your visit memorable.
- Springfield is home to the Springfield-Branson National Airport. The rental car counters are located near the entrance, next to the baggage claim carousels. The Springfield-Branson National Airport provides access to multiple rental car companies, including Avis, Enterprise, Budget, and Thrifty. The lots for these rental car companies are located just outside the terminal and do not require an alternate mode of transportation to get to.
- Springfield traffic is heaviest during rush hour. Visitors should plan on slower commutes between the hours of 6:30am through 9am and again from 4:30pm to 7pm. The streets to avoid during rush hour are Campbell, Sunshine, and Battlefield. If you need to use these roads during those hours, drivers should add at least 20 extra minutes to the commute. Springfield is also designed for those who wish to commute on bicycles and walking, so drivers should be wary of bikers and pedestrians when driving in Springfield.
- Springfield is a city that experiences all four seasons of the year. When visiting between November through February, drivers should be aware that snowy driving conditions are possible. Also, Springfield experiences frequent rainstorms, so drivers must be mindful of the dangers of wet conditions on the roads. Visitors from warmer, dryer locations should practice caution if they are unused to driving in these types of situations. One of the best things to do while driving in slick or wet conditions is simply to slow down and give yourself plenty of space to stop.
- Book your rental car in Springfield at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Pros:

Pros:
NOTHING!Cons:
Booked online during travel. Got confirmation. Then called to confirm location was at airport. Reached destination airport to be told wrong location... AND NO CAR at any location because they called me and because I didn’t answer res was cancelled. I’m flying... that’s why I needed a rental car?!?!?!!! Agents at desk just did not care at all. Will never use the brand again ever!!!!!!4.8 Mediocre
Aug 2018
Pros:
Upon returning car, I expressed to clerk, Taylor, that front bumper was scratched when I initially picked up car. Taylor stated that wouldn’t be an issue since I initially picked up car in that condition.Cons:
Receive phone call regarding scratched front bumper and I had to take the time to write an email and re-explain condition of car at time of pickup, along with pictures. Poor communication between the two Hertz car company. Customer service should have handled this situation. Hoping to soon be informed of the confirmation of my email.2.0 Poor
Jul 2018
Pros:
The fourth person I finally got to help me receive my money why backCons:
The fact that I made a reservation. They called me to cancel it. Told me I would not be charged. Charged me fully then only gave half of my money back due to cancellation ! ( which they did due to lack of cars) then took me a week to receive the rest of my money.2.0 Poor

Cons:
I was given a upgrade that was a Chevy Tahoe rather than a midsize SUV. But that Tahoe had a leaky tire with three plugs in it and I had to keep pulling over and refilling the tire on on a long drive. Also they gave me a car that did not have the left rear turn signal working. Then when I went to turn the car in they said that I had change the car and they charge me $2000 instead of the 299 a week. I’m very disappointed. I will not be using national car rental again.10.0 Wonderful
