KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Oak Lawn

  • The area has very minimal public transportation, so you will find that car rentals in Oak Lawn are typically one of the most convenient ways to move throughout the region. If you choose to have your own Oak Lawn car rentals, you will be able to easily explore the city on your own schedule. You will also be able to visit places that are not located in the city center, such as the Wolfe Wildlife Park, which is around a 20-minute drive away. There is also the Chicago Ridge Mall, which is a little under a 30-minute drive away.
  • If you will be flying, it can be a convenient choice to pick up car rentals in Oak Lawn from Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW). Chicago Midway International Airport’s rental car center can be found at 5150 W. 55th Street. There is a free shuttle service that will take you here 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and it picks up travelers from outside of Lower Level Door #2. Some of the rental agencies that you will find here include Alamo, Budget, and Hertz.
  • Before you operate car rentals in Oak Lawn, it is always a good idea to read up on some local driving regulations and rules. For instance, keep in mind that all drivers and passengers are always required to use their seatbelts. If a child is under the age of eight, they are required to be in a proper child’s seat. In the state of Illinois, music coming from a vehicle cannot be heard 75 feet or more from the car.
  • To avoid getting caught in congestion, you will want to make sure that you try not to be on the road during rush hour. In the greater Chicago area, including Oak Lawn, rush hour is generally between 6:00 am and 8:00 am, as well as 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm The area also tends to get quite a bit of rain and snow, so you will want to be particularly careful when driving in these conditions.

there was no car available for rent when we went to pick up the car, and not likely that our selected vehicle (large suv) would be returned. after an hour and a half, we took an uber to our destination and rented from another company.

Jul 2018

KAYAK

Pros:

We had a good car that proved very comfortable for what was a long journey, from Chicago to Newark in 8 days, with a few days stopped off here and there on the way. Fuel consumption was very good, particularly for a car in the USA (albeit a Korean one): 50mpg was pretty typical going a steady 60-70mph. Luggage space was very good. Budget was very amenable to our changing the drop-off location from Boston to Newark, at no additional cost (one-way rental cost already paid).

Cons:

We had to go for a one-way rental, which gave a very much more expensive per-day price for the car, particularly for a short rental of 8 days. Notwithstanding this expense, it was possible to get a one-way rental and it was, if anything, less expensive than other suppliers.
