  • Car rentals in Vernon Hills give the convenience of tailoring the trip to your exact needs. Having a rental car is particularly useful if you're visiting areas with limited public transportation options, like the Half Day Forest Preserve. A car also gives you the ability to take longer trips and explore Lake Michigan and the nearby cities of Chicago and Milwaukee. For business travelers, having a car provides the flexibility to move between meetings and appointments efficiently. If you're traveling with a group or as a family, renting a car is more convenient and cost-effective than taking taxis or rideshares.

The car we rented was dirty on the outside (not washed, bird poop) despite of the workers telling me that they were cleaning the car half hour past our scheduled pick-up time. Interior was clean, though, the check tire pressure sign came on right away, so we had to stop by a gas station to fill the tire. I checked the remaining tires, the pressures were too high. The employees at the hertz were friendly and nice, they blamed their delayed pick up time due to the staff shortage. But I don’t think that should be their excuse to give a customer a dirty car/low tire pressure.

The offices were closed when we arrived. Reservation was set for a time when the office was supposed to stay open but they changed their hours temporarily and didn’t update online nor made us aware of this.

Hertz cancelled my van rental the morning of the rental because they had to give it to Best Buy, one of their corporate clients. I had to change my moving plans at the last minute because I didn't have a van. Very disappointed that Hertz would offer van rentals to customers, even if they aren't available!
