KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Colton

  • Colton car rentals always win out when it comes to convenience, flexibility, and comfort. Thus, when you visit California, consider getting car rentals in Colton to drive to all the destinations you admire. In contrast to public transportation and taxis, which are cumulatively costly, car rentals in Colton offer affordable means to adventure the hidden iconic landmarks within the city and outside. Some places worth driving to include Juan Pollo McDonalds Museum, Mary Vagle Nature Center, Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, Iron Brewing Company, and Wildhaven Ranch. A trip to The Los Angeles Museum of Love is a lifelong experience; you want to get there by car.
  • LA/Ontario International Airport (ONT) is the nearest airport to Colton, about 18 miles from the city center. If you fly into the city, you will likely land here. ONT hosts several car rental agencies, including Eagle Rent A Car, Hertz, Alamo, Enterprise, Budget, National, Thrifty, and Avis. The Car Rental Facility is off-site but connected to the airport. Free Car rental shuttles operate between the terminals and the Car Rental Facility every 5-10 minutes. Getting your car rentals in Colton at the airport lets you start adventuring the city as soon as you arrive.
  • Generally, driving in Colton is easy due to good roads and disciplined road users. Drivers are generally patient and adhere to all traffic regulations. Jaywalking is uncommon, as pedestrians strictly follow crosswalk regulations. However, be attentive when driving along densely inhabited areas like schools, residential, and business zones. The city has a zero-tolerance for drinking and driving. You should not have alcohol in your system when driving your Colton car rentals.
  • Despite having well-developed and maintained roads, Colton experiences heavy traffic during peak travel hours because most residents and tourists access the city with private vehicles. It is usually occasioned by vehicles and motorbikes scrambling for position, causing road congestion in most parts of the city. Usually, rush hours begin from 6 am to 9 am and from 4 pm to 7 pm. It is recommended to avoid driving your car rentals in Colton during these hours.

Cons:

The car I got was filthy I had to stop and clean the window because I could not even see out of it. The person behind the desk was less than personable at pickup At drop off I was literally less than 5 minutes past the drop off time and was charged a $10.00 late fee. I asked him to reverse it and was told "I can not, that is how the account is set up". I will NEVER rent from this AVIS again, or any AVIS for that matter if that is how they treat their customers.

Good pricing

Cons:

Quite a bit. My brother experienced multiple mechanical problems including a transmission going out and broken headlights. They told us to drop it off at another location because our pickup location was closing soon. The man at that location tried charging an extra $84 for a "refuling" charge even though we returned the car on full. He was unable to explain why it was on there and stated "I don't know return it in Colton tomorrow." He refused to call anyone to see why the charge was on there and was very rude. I am just amazed at all of the problems we experienced.

Pros:

The rental was great. Drove great and great price

Cons:

I’m sure the last hour of the day on a Friday is always busy. So there was about a half hour to forty minute wait. The only thing that could have been better. But I’m sure happens more often then not on a Friday night night an hour before closing.

The rental car office is literally steps away from the airport. San Bernardino International Airport and Hertz Rental Cars make a quick trip to SoCal so convenient and affordable. We can finally fly down and see friends from Loma Linda to Beaumont without costing and arm and a leg or risking life and limb driving out of LAX or Ontario.
