  • Tukwila is a sprawling city with many popular attractions. Renting cheap car rentals in Tukwila ensures that you have the flexibility and convenience to explore the city comfortably. You can easily plan your itinerary and move around the city at your own pace without worrying about the schedules of other transport options. In addition, many popular attractions in and around Tukwila are easily accessible by car.

  • Seattle/Tacoma International Airport (SEA) is the airport that serves Tukwila. It is only 3 miles away and the rental car companies at SEA Airport are located at a centralized rental car facility near the airport. The rental car companies located at the Rental Car Facility include Alamo, Avis, Dollar, Budget, Enterprise, Hertz, Payless, National, and Thrifty. To get to the Rental Car Facility, passengers may follow the signs leading to the parking garage, and take the sky bridge to the third floor. There, they will find a shuttle bus service that runs between the garage and the rental car facility. The shuttle ride takes approximately 5-7 minutes.
  • When driving cheap car rentals in Tukwila, it's important to keep an eye out for unique road signs. The city has signs for HOV (High Occupancy Vehicles) lanes that allow only vehicles with two or more occupants during certain hours of the day.

  • Tukwila, WA is located in the greater Seattle area and experiences heavy traffic during rush hour, typically between 7:00 am-9:00 am and 4:00 pm-7:00 pm on weekdays. The roads and intersections that mostly experience heavy traffic during these times are Interstate 5 (I-5), Interstate 405 (I-405), and State Route 167 (SR 167). During the winter season which is usually between November to February, the greater Seattle area can experience heavy rain, occasional snow, and strong winds. Snow and ice can also make driving cheap car rentals in Tukwila difficult, particularly on hilly roads and in areas that don't get treated as often, so it is important to prepare your car for winter driving conditions by equipping snow tires and carrying chains.

When I originally searched for a rental, I accidentally used a downtown location for my drop-off instead of the airport. I only noticed this error after I completed the purchase, but the agent said it wouldn't be a problem to change it later. I called Enterprise the next day to make sure it was OK to change the drop-off location and they said it would add over $300 to my one-day rental! Obviously, I declined, dropped it off downtown, and took a $15 Lyft ride to the airport. I was just picking up a car parked at the airport, so I had no time-crunch, but this could've really screwed someone's day up if they were trying to catch a flight!

Pros:

Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Mechanical condition of vehicles was big problem. Went through 3 cars in a week. One (the 1st) had brake trouble, another (the 2nd) actually broke down on the freeway 20 min. after pick-up. Also, all offices closing at 6 PM is a big problem if you need to replace a broken car after that hour.

The first van I tried had a broken seat folding mechanism. The second one developed intermittent brake problem, had to call a tow truck and go for a replacement. Will certainly remember the Alamo as a rental company to avoid.
