KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Cottonwood Heights

  • Renting a car from one of the local car rentals in Cottonwood Heights would be a wise move when visiting this city. With a rental car, you’ll be free to move from one attraction to another whenever you deem it appropriate. You’ll also enjoy direct, comfortable, and private travel. As if that’s not enough, you can check out attractions in the neighboring towns of Millcreek, Taylorsville, Riverton, Salt Lake City, and Canyon Rim, given that these towns are short drives away.
  • Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) is the closest airport to Cottonwood Heights.

The agencies with desks at this center include Alamo, Budget, Avis, Dollar, Hertz, Payless, Enterprise, and Thrifty. The pickup lot is in the adjacent parking garage.

However, some drivers usually break the rules when the chance arises, while some pedestrians usually cross the roads absent-mindedly.

Staff was friendly. Car was great! Price is great!

Cons:

It took longer than expected to get the car. There was a line. Very busy place it seems. Gas tank was empty at pick up, but they marked it empty, and said they'd credit back some $$ if there was gas in tank at return. Options were very minimal. Upgraded, but there was only one option

Pros:

Hybrid had good gas mileage, staff members were friendly and explained options without being overly pushy

Cons:

The Fusion was the only "full size" car available, and the hybrid battery took so much trunk space that it barely fit the description of fitting 2 large pieces of baggage, taking tremendous trickery to fit the bags in after each unload/reload. The satellite office was not very helpful in finding us a replacement full size car, but we managed through our trip. All other aspects of the car worked out well.

Pros:

I loved not having to go to the airport to pick the car up, it was very convenient and easy to check out. We rented a Yukon and it was great. Excellent rate, comfortable everything went just like we planned.

Pros:

Cons:

Everything. We booked online, got refused at the counter even though we had a debit card and could pay in cash if needed. Would only take a credit card so we took our business elsewhere. Wouldn’t rent a pen from these people.

6.4 Okay

Jul 2018

KAYAK

Cons:

Two complaints: 1. We arrived 30 minutes before our scheduled rental pickup. Was told that we would have to wait 1/2 hour or they would charge us for an extra day. Went back in 10 minutes before the scheduled pick up time and asked if we could pick up yet. She said "Yes. We allow a 30 minute window without charging an extra day." So, we could have received it the first time we came in!!! 2. Rented a compact SUV (description said similar to Toyota Rav4). We received a Jeep Renegade. It got TERRIBLE gas mileage. After being on the road for 30 minutes, the gauge was already down 1/4 tank! Ridiculous!!! Please use cars that get better gas mileage.

The car broke in the snow, they were not helpful. I was told I would get a cross-over they did not say it would be extra then they wanted me to pay 500 bucks extra. They offered a free upgrade to a muscle car but it was no different then the first car I had. They were not helpful and very rude.

I confirmed the reservation with the office the day before pickup. When I arrived, they said that they didn't have my vehicle and had been out of that inventory class for weeks.

Jun 2021

KAYAK

Cons:

I specifically rented a cargo van because I needed to move furniture. When I arrived to pick up the car, the staff told me they did not have a cargo van available - and the only vehicle they could give me was an old, worn-out minivan. As a result, I was not able to complete the move as planned. Further, the staff was not helpful in any fashion and simply told me there was nothing else they could do - it was a take or leave it situation. They made little effort to address the obvious error that had been made with my reservation.

4.0 Mediocre

Cons:

The vehicle I reserved was not available - so I was forced to take another vehicle. The staff was very unapologetic and said the problem occurs - and i had no choice other than to take the car they offered. It was a very disappointing experience.

Sep 2018

KAYAK

Pros:

They gave a car...

Cons:

Absolute nightmare to work with these people. Rude customer service. Sneaky people trying to find any fault with the car to charge the insurance. Had to fill in paperwork because of a tiny rock chip. Good luck getting a hold of anyone to make any changes to the reservation. Ruined our vacation.

2.0 Poor

Jul 2018

KAYAK

Pros:

The customer service agent cancelled the reservation for us at the desk.

Cons:

We were going to be given a Subaru Outback as a standard size SUV. There is no way that that car qualifies as a SUV, let alone standard size. They had no other cars they could rent us. The excuse was that that was the car that was set up in Budgets "list" of approved cars for that class. If that is the case, then Budget really needs to review their list. The desk agent was nice enough, but one of the workers that came in reeked of smoke and was not very pleasant to her when she had asked him if the full size SUV (an actual full size one, a GMC Yukon I believe) was available. He got a bit gruff and said that we could have it if we only wanted it one day since it needed an oil change and some other work.

Pros:

The car we received had only about 3000 miles on it and it was a nicer car than expected.

Cons:

The car was very dirty when we picked it up. Chocolate on the seat, greasy fingerprints all over the interior. We mentioned this when we picked it up and asked if they could fix it. To which they said that they had just run it through the carwash and vacuumed it. The had no other clean cars with which we could exchange it. We called customer service and they gave us one day free and told us we could exchange the car at any budget location. We did. When dropping off the car we had to wait 30 minutes before being helped. The attendant was spending a very long time chatting with a customer and playing with their dog while a line of 3 or 4 other customers waited.
