KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Trussville

  • One of the biggest advantages of car rentals in Trussville is that you can easily see amazing spots like the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum, which showcases an impressive collection of vintage motorcycles and vehicles, as well as the Birmingham Botanical Gardens that include Japanese gardens, rose gardens, and more.

The beauty of a rental car is that you can go to these spots without relying on expensive taxis or rideshare vehicles or on somewhat limited public transportation options.
  • If you would like to pick up Trussville car rentals at an airport location, the Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport (BHM) will be your best choice in this area.

In Alabama, unless otherwise posted, you are generally allowed to make a right turn on red after coming to a complete stop and ensuring it's safe to do so.
  • Some of the main roads you will find in Trussville include Chalkville Road (Highway 11), which is one of the major roads in Trussville, running north-south through the city.

Pros:

Staff both departing and returning were great. Needed Suv and was given as promised

Cons:

The only negative was there were no floor mats or paper sheet covers for the interior floorboard. The place I was going was rural and muddy, so I had to constantly lay down towels or garbage bags to keep the interior floor carpet clean.

Pros:

Drop off was quick but it looked like both the workers at the booth wanted to be anywhere other then there.

Cons:

It took awhile to pick up the car because the front desk was understaffed. The vehicle smelled heavily of smoke the interior driver and passenger side doors where cut up and the seats were stained and filthy. The front windshield had two big chips in it and there were scratches all over the vehicle. Lastly, someone took the floor mats out of the vehicle and never returned them. I will NEVER RENT FROM AVIS AGAIN and I strongly suggest you don’t either.

Picked up a Camry initially, but we knew within a few minutes we would have to return it. Strong tire vibration left us feeling unsafe for our upcoming road trip. Dealt with tired employees and a lot of back & forth before finally finding a good replacement. It took about 2 hours off our journey so we were off to a late start. Replacement car was just fine, but windshield wipers were so loud. Both cars could've been cleaned better. Drop off was okay but felt bad for stressed and overworked employee who handled it.

Cons:

It was not clear to me that there was an offsite Budget, who I actually rented from, and a onsite at the airport Budget. The man in charge was very helpful to honor what I had and made clear that it would be $5 more per day. Which was fine.

Cons:

There is no mention of the additional security deposit at any point prior to making the reservation, even if you pay for the vehicle ahead of time, and they will attempt to force you into paying a cancellation fee if you’re unable to cover the surprise $200 deposit. Make purchasers aware, before wasting their time.
