KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Clinton

  • Car rentals in Clinton allow you to travel at your own pace and schedule. When you don't want to wait for public transportation to go to places like Bickelhaupt Arboretum, Camanche Depot, and Museum, or Wide River Winery, rental cars let you go when you want. Clinton is situated in a region with plenty of exciting destinations for day trips by car, such as The Quad Cities area, comprising Davenport and Bettendorf in Iowa and Rock Island and Moline in Illinois, where you can explore attractions like the John Deere Pavilion, Figge Art Museum, and the RiverCenter. The Quad Cities also offer scenic riverfront views and dining options.
  • One of the most easily accessible locations for obtaining Clinton car rentals is Quad Cities International Airport (MLI). The airport hosts around six prominent rental car providers, all situated within the public terminal, adjacent to exits 6 and 7 on the eastern side, conveniently close to the baggage claim area. The designated lot is positioned to the east of the terminal structure for returning rental vehicles, clearly marked with a dedicated entrance sign. Parking spaces throughout the rental and return areas are well-marked and designated adequately for your convenience.
  • Seat belts are mandatory for all passengers in car rentals in Clinton, regardless of their seating position. Texting while driving is usually prohibited for all drivers, as it can lead to distracted driving and accidents. In areas with four-way stops, the vehicle that arrives first or has the right of way goes first. Flashing headlights can have various meanings, such as indicating that you're yielding the right of way or warning other drivers of a potential hazard.
  • The busiest driving times on main roads in Clinton can vary based on factors like local commuting patterns, work schedules, school hours, and events. Typically, the morning rush hour occurs between 7 am and 9 am. During this time, you can expect increased traffic on main roads like US Route 30 (Lincoln Highway), US Route 67 (2nd Street), and US Route 61 (3rd Street).

Gas hog. Was supposed to have full size car, not Jeep which got less than 30 mpg. Neither USB port worked, using my phone's GPS used all my phone battery before arrival at my destination. Tried to stop at 2 Hertz locations in Dayton, neither had a clue what to do to fix it. One offered to switch vehicles but would take another hour. Couldn't do that or I would be late to my destination.

Pros:

Arrived to pick up vehicle and they told me dogs are not allowed but I already had mine with me. He told me about the $150 fee for cleaning up dog hair. I appreciated the info and made sure it was hair free upon return. Worked out perfectly.

Cons:

Nothing. They even had a windshield scraper for snow in the vehicle.Nice touch.
