Top Tips for Renting an SUV in Mobile
- Renting an SUV in Mobile offers versatility, space, and comfort, ideal for exploring the city's diverse attractions and nearby destinations. Unlike public transport, an SUV provides enhanced flexibility since you can control your schedule, including the departure times and routes. With this type of car, you can easily access remote or rugged sites like Gulf State Park or Dauphin Island. Its ample space accommodates groups and luggage, making it ideal for trips to Bellingrath Gardens or USS Alabama. Whether navigating downtown or venturing into nature, Mobile SUV rentals enhance your overall experience.
- Consider a few things if you choose Mobile Regional Airport (MOB) or Pensacola International Airport (PNS) as your preferred pickup location for Mobile SUV rentals. Since these locations attract more renters, booking in advance ensures availability, especially during peak travel times. When picking up your SUV, ensure you have a valid driver's license, credit card, and insurance information. Mobile Regional Airport offers on-site rental options in the Ground Transportation Center, which is adjacent to the main terminal building. On the other hand, at Pensacola International Airport, car rentals are located in the consolidated rental car facility, which is a short shuttle ride away from the terminal.
- For enhanced experience when using Mobile SUV rentals, you should keep a few things in mind. Always pay attention to pedestrians, as jaywalking is common, especially on the busy streets within the city center. The city experiences a generally relaxed driving style, but drivers usually observe traffic laws. Mobile enforces a Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) limit of 0.08% for drivers, strictly penalizing DUI offenses. Stay informed about local regulations to ensure a safe and law-abiding driving experience while exploring the city and its surroundings.
- The convenience of using Mobile SUV rentals tends to decline during rush hours, generally from 7:00 am to 9:00 am and 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm. The I-10 corridor, including its junction with I-65 and the US-98 causeway, usually experiences heavy traffic congestion. Mobile's humid subtropical climate usually has an impact on the driving conditions. Heavy rain and occasional hurricanes might affect road safety and visibility, so being cautious during stormy seasons, typically summer and early fall, is advised. Adjusting your driving times to avoid rush hours and staying vigilant during adverse weather can help ensure a smoother driving experience in Mobile.

Pros:
Easy pick up and drop off. The car swap was pretty smooth.Cons:
Flat tire half way through the trip. No damage to the tire it just went flat somehow so that added about 3 hours to the trip. Road side assistance took two hours to get to us when it was estimated to be a little less than an hour (he changed it very quickly though and was very nice).2.0 Poor
Sep 2020
Pros:
They cancelled my reservation 8 hours before I needed the car which put me in a bind. Then I had to make a reservation with another company and pay double the price. They would not reimburse me or give me any sort of reparation.8.4 Very good

Cons:
Customer service rep you walk the customer to the car or employee to help with the bags and the same teach someone how to work the new technology of the vehicle you get... since is going to be yours for fee hrs or days..... and do together a full inspection of the vehicle....6.0 Okay
Jul 2020
Pros:
The customer service staff were incredibly friendly and nice. Cannot commend them enough.Cons:
The car had an overwhelming smokers smell. It was intense. Especially in the heat. It was horrible. Also the car's touch screen (which basically controls everything) didn't work well. It routinely would freeze and we'd have to restart the car to get it to work again.Enterprise Rent-A-Car

To ACTUALLY let the customer know before heading there and stand in line for an hour or so OUTSIDE to then get denied the rental8.0 Very good
May 2020
Cons:
Pickup took 45 minutes to get a car. I realize we are under a pandemic though. There was really only one guy checking people in and checking the cars in, so he was doing the best he could. Dropping the car off was so much easier. They had streamlined their process. It took 5 minutes.10.0 Wonderful

Nov 2019
Pros:
All of the staff that I interacted with were super friendly, helpful, and accommodating.Cons:
Drop off was a little bit confusing because there didn’t seem to be a dedicated spot for returns. There were two aisles where you could park the car instead and staff would come meet you where you parked.8.8 Very good
Aug 2019
Pros:
The team was kind and quickly went through rental procedure.Cons:
It is very hard to find those who are in parking lot for returning vehicle, or any dents or scratches prior to leaving. A large return sign check point and perhaps a single point outside for scratch and dent concerns would be very helpful. Guys in a badly parked truck looked like other customers.Hertz

May 2021
Cons:
The car provided to me was filthy. I could barely see through the smeared windshield, and there wasn't a drop of washer fluid. Worse, there was a terrible scraping sound that Hertz must have known about. This car should not have been rented to anyone, certainly not at the high price that I paid. It was the worst rental car experience I have ever had.8.0 Very good
Mar 2021
Pros:
Staff was friendly but somewhat busy for no reasonCons:
The vehicle could have been cleaner and not missing a mat4.0 Mediocre
Dec 2020
Cons:
When I picked up the car, I was told that the gas tank was full. When I got on the road, I realized that the tank was only 1/4 full. The vehicle also reeked of cigarette smoke to the point that we had to get air fresheners and all had a massive headache. The car was not clean on the outside. Inside was fine. We also had to put air in one of the tires three different times during our trip. This was not a good car rental experience.Dollar

Feb 2021
Pros:
Nothing. They gave away our car. Staff was rude at Mobile Airport and basically just said, "We don't have any cars." No offer to help fix this, despite the fact that they didn't hold our reservation.Cons:
1. They could have held our reservation--we did nothing to deserve them not having a car for us. 2. They could have offered to help find another car someplace else after they gave our reservation away. 3. They could have at least act like they cared that they screwed us.10.0 Wonderful

Chech out took 5 minutes, forgot to fill out the form. Brought it back a week later with a full tank, perfunctory check on the vehicle took 3 or 4 minutes and I was on my way with receipt.Cons:
Couldn't figure out where the gas cap filler cap release was was? Odd for the vehicle? But all my other kias have had the gas release in the same place ...7.6 Good

Oct 2018
Pros:
I liked the car and the price. The ease of ordering was nice too.Cons:
We had one heck of a time trying to get this car dropped off. There wasn't a Thrifty in Destin Florida that was open and we were told on the phone by customer service that we could not drop off at a Dollar or Hertz only to find out that the Dollar location could easily accept a Thrifty rental. It is a great benefit for clients to be able to drop off at many locations if needed. This should be conveyed to the customer.10.0 Wonderful
