KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Provo
- Suppose your visit to Provo, Utah, coincides with major events or festivals in the city. In that case, expect some roads and streets to close as you drive around in cheap car rentals in Provo. Usually, traffic leading to the venues where these events are held is diverted to try and minimize traffic congestion. Additionally, service at the Provo car rentals is often delayed due to increased car rentals. The town celebrates the Utah Dough Show in May at the Electric Park at Thanksgiving Point. If you are here in June, you will find the locals enjoying the “Here Comes The Sun” Rock Festival at Memorial Park, Payson. Still, Salty Desert Burlesque Festival is held at Club 90, Sandy.
- Legally, you must be 21 or older before renting a car in Provo, Utah. Still, some agencies have varying age requirements based on the vehicle categories. For instance, some companies limit SUVs and other premium vehicles like convertibles to clients aged 25 or older. If you are coming from a foreign country, you must present a valid driver’s license from your country of origin. In addition, carrying your passport and a copy of your visa is recommended, as some agencies might ask for proof of legal status when renting cheap car rentals in Provo. Remember that transactions are made using a major credit card registered in your name.
- In Utah, it is imperative to understand the traffic regulations before moving around in cheap rental cars in Provo. Firstly, you will drive on the right-hand side and overtake on the left. If you encounter non-working traffic signals, treat them as a four-way stop. Note that you can turn right at a red traffic signal, provided you come to a complete stop, and check the oncoming traffic before continuing with your journey. Buses flashing red lights indicate that they’re stopping to load or unload, while those flashing amber lights mean they are slowing down. You must thus halt and wait for the bus.
- A car rental in Provo is a great option for maximum flexibility and comfort. With a car, you can explore this Salt Lake City suburb’s main points of interest and get easy access to the state’s capital. Explore all the events and shows at the Covey Center for the Arts or the Lakeside Storage and Museum. Perhaps, if you’re here on business, you’ll need a set of wheels to get to the Utah Valley Convention Center. You can also spend time exploring Utah Lake, an important area for recreation, or take a tour of the Utah Valley University campus.
- Salt Lake City International Airport is the closest major airport to Provo. You will find the rental car counters in the Gateway Center, which is located just next to the parking garage. You can reach the Gateway Center to collect your car rentals in Provo via the two bridges from the baggage claim area.
- I-15 is the main highway serving Provo, as well as the US-89 and US-189, which also pass through the city. Pedestrians are common around Provo and Utah law states that drivers must always yield to pedestrians around designated crosswalks. Sometimes there may not be sidewalks, so also look out for pedestrians walking along the roadway shoulders, such as Highway 189. Provo is becoming a hub for road cycling and there are also dozens of miles of bike lanes, including the Provo River Parkway Trail and a loop around the Utah Lake, where drivers should be conscientious of sharing the road with cyclists.
- Traffic is notoriously congested during the rush hour commute along the I-15 corridor heading to and from Salt Lake City. Rush hour in Provo starts around 7:30am and lasts until 8:30am and then again from 4:30pm to 6:30pm. If possible, plan your travel after rush hour ends to avoid bumper-to-bumper traffic along major freeways. Snow is common during the winter months in Provo so be sure that you practice safe driving in snowy conditions by not slamming your brakes and driving below the speed limit.

Pros:
We got there 10 minutes before they officially opened and they rushed to help us anyway. The exact car was not available but they had two other cars with 7 seats and gave us the option to choose the larger but wait 20-30 min until it was cleaned or get into slightly smaller with the same number of seats.Cons:
They need to open earlier.7.2 Good
Dec 2019
Pros:
The car was very cleanCons:
The positive: the vehicle was very clean The rest: Customer service rep that worked with us made me feel uncomfortable and uneasy about even renting the vehicle. She said things like “this is my baby so please be careful with it”, “please drive carefully out there” (multiple times) and made it seem like it was her personal vehicle. And in text this sounds normal, but her tone, body language, facial expression, and general bluntness made me feel like I didn’t even want to take the car. If she was so worried about it getting damaged why even rent it out? I was so uncomfortable and worried about anything happening that we even returned it early. We had it rented for a full day (24hrs) for almost $100 but we just used it for what we needed and took it back 5 hours later. I was in such a rush to take it back that I forgot to put gas in it, so I probably got charged more. I haven’t checked yet. Lastly, I booked this rental through kayak. And when you’re checking out it recommends you purchase insurance. I did, and when we got there I showed her the insurance email and she looked at it, looked at me, and said “I don’t know what that is”. I explained how I bought it through kayak and she then told me they don’t take it and took our personal insurance information down before we could leave. All in all, the great cleanliness of the vehicle was not worth it. I do not recommend this location.10.0 Wonderful

Jun 2020
Pros:
The staff was very friendly for pick-up at the Provo Airport. We dropped off the car to the Louisville Airport rental parking lot and left the key in the car; we did not end up meeting any staff during our drop-off process. It was a brand-new 2020 Chevy Malibu with awesome tech updates, making it very easy to use our maps phone app, music, and more!Cons:
We paid Kayak $11.00 a day for insurance, and ended up paying additional insurance through Hertz, because we were unaware that the $11.00 a day would not cover what we were hoping it would cover.10.0 Wonderful

There was a $30/day fee because I’m 6 months away from being 25, they didn’t quote me that until we arrived to the airport. So our online reservation quote was like $170 but when we ended up paying $305. Knowing that before hand would have been really helpful.10.0 Wonderful

the line was very long to pick up the car. 20 min. wait. No one was there to drop off the car to. It is a small airport with only a few flights. But they know that people will return the car within the hour of the flight leaving. Things go better when staff is on hand to receive in the car.7.2 Good

Cons:
The after hours drop off at Provo airport was a nightmare. The dropbox for National was LOCKED so we couldn't put our keys in it. No one was available and the 1-800 number we called was frustrating since the lady couldn't even pull up the information she needed about the location. We ended up telling 'customer service' that we were going to put it in the Hertz rental box and she told us there isn't a hertz there. We were looking right at it- Yes there is! After we folded and stapled it up in a paper with National written on it we put it in the Hertz drop off box, and left a note on the National counter. It took 3 days for them to close out and process our rental. What should have been a 5 minute process took almost 45.10.0 Wonderful
