KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Yuba City

  • A car rental in Yuba City, California, can offer several advantages over relying on public transportation. Public transportation schedules may not always align with your desired itinerary. By having a rental car, you can save time by avoiding waiting for buses or trains and travel directly to your destination without having to adhere to fixed timetables. Also, unlike public transportation, a Yuba City car rental offers a more flexible itinerary and the ability to visit attractions off the beaten path that may not be easily accessible by public transportation, like Sutter County Museum.
  • Sacramento International Airport (SMF) is the closest airport serving Yuba City, about 40 miles away. Consider getting a car rental in Yuba City at this facility, as companies like National, Hertz, Enterprise, Dollar, Budget, Avis, Alamo, National, and Thrifty run their counters here. The car rental providers are conveniently located at the Rental Car Terminal, a short distance from the main terminal building. A free shuttle bus service runs at a 10-minute interval between the rental car terminal and both Terminals A and B.
  • Yuba City is located in an agricultural region, and some roads outside the city may be rural or less developed. These roads might be narrower, have fewer amenities, and may not have streetlights. It is important to drive attentively and be prepared for encounters with large farm vehicles or slower-moving traffic. You may encounter cyclists and pedestrians sharing the road. Stay vigilant in your Yuba City car rental and give them the right-of-way when necessary. Look for designated bike lanes and respect their presence on the road.
  • Like any other city, Yuba City may experience increased traffic during peak commuting hours, typically in the morning (7:00 am to 9:00 am) and evening (between 4:00 pm and 6:00 pm) when people travel to and from work. Congestion may be more noticeable on major thoroughfares and intersections during these times. Yuba City hosts various events and festivals throughout the year, such as California Swan Festival or the Yuba City Sikh Parade, which can lead to increased traffic during those times.

KAYAK

Pros:

Drop off very easy

Cons:

Didn't have the car I reserved available because they overbooked and a "glitch" in their system (bull). Was forced to pay extra for an "upgrade" to rent, unless I wanted to "wait around" for when a car would show up. What's the point of reservations then!?

I had rented a car to get me to the airport to catch an international flight from SF to India. When I went to pick up my car (2hrs after my scheduled pick up time) they told me they wouldn’t have a car ready for another 6-8 hours! They offered no help whatsoever. Had to end up paying s friend to drive me 7hrs round trip to the airport. Luckily I have good friends!!! I will never rent through Hertz again unless I have absolutely no other option.

Pros:

It was nice that they offered to take me home when I dropped off the rental.

Cons:

When I got there to pick up, the vehicle was not ready. I even got there a little after the time I put for pick up, in hopes I would be on the road right away. Instead, I had to wait 20 minutes for the vehicle to be properly detailed.

Cons:

I reserved the car for 10 AM,Due to the coronavirus shelter in place they chose to drop off my car. They told me they would arrive at 10/10:30 but didn’t arrive until 11:15. We walked around the car and the persons left. I put my bags in the trunk and got in the car. There was cigarette ashes in the cupholders and the ac smelled like cigarettes. I called and had them note it. But the lateness with no call. I had to call for an update my self. 10 mins after 10:30 to see where they were. And the cigarettes ashes and smell big turnoff.

After waiting for 10 min they said my car wasn't available. Waited another 10 min and then canceled. Staff was not customer friendly and did not respond well to or resolve my complaints. When I said I was going to Alamo one staff member said"good luck" sarcastically.

Pickup was easy but later we discovered the driver side front lock did not work and when you started the car up and backed up, the brakes made an awful sound. Brought these to the attention of the manager when we brought the car back. They did an investigation but we have not heard back from them.
