KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in West Sacramento

  • Car rentals in West Sacramento, CA, provide the flexibility to travel according to your own schedule. You are not bound by fixed bus or train timetables and can plan your trips per your preferences. Still, public transportation might not always reach all destinations in West Sacramento, especially if you want to explore remote areas or places with limited transportation options. You can easily access more sites with a rental car, including Cache Creek Nature Preserve and Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area.
  • The primary airport that serves West Sacramento, CA, and the greater Sacramento metropolitan area is the Sacramento International Airport (SMF). The facility is convenient for picking up your West Sacramento car rentals immediately after you land. The Rental Car Terminal at SMF is a separate facility adjacent to the airport. To get there, you must take a shuttle from the terminal curbside. Some major car rental agencies operating at SMF include Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, and Hertz.
  • West Sacramento is located at the convergence of several major highways, including Interstate 80 and Interstate 5. Negotiating these freeway interchanges with car rentals in West Sacramento can be challenging, especially for drivers unfamiliar with the area. Remember, the city is bike-friendly, with many cycling paths and pedestrian-friendly areas. Therefore, drivers need to be aware of bikers and pedestrians, especially in downtown and residential neighborhoods. In more rural areas near West Sacramento, you may encounter wildlife crossing the roads, especially during dusk and dawn. Stay alert and be prepared to brake if necessary.
  • The typical peak traffic hours in West Sacramento align with traditional rush hours experienced in most urban areas. Roads are usually congested in the morning (7:00 am to 9:00 am) when residents commute to work, school, or other destinations and in the evening (4:00 pm to 6:00 pm) when they return home. To this end, consider skirting around streets that experience heavy snarl-up, such as West Capitol Avenue, Highway 50/Interstate 80 Interchange, and Bridge Street. Bear in mind that heavy rain during the rainy season can lead to slippery roads and reduced visibility. Motorists should exercise caution during inclement weather.

Car, SUV, was fine and addressed our needs. We were disappointed in the lack of flexibility at customer service. We asked for a 3-4 hour extension to drop off so we didn't have to drive all day and into the night. They said any extension is charged at a full 24 hour rate even 5 minutes. Representative said he had no discretion on charge. We ended up just making drop off deadline but didn't have time to stop for gas. They charged $9.90 per gallon! Outrageous! I live in Tennessee and pay between $2.50 and $3.00 per gallon. If all rental companies do this, I will never rent for pleasure. I often rent in Europe and they are much more flexible in their rules and policies. I am an Avis Preferred member, but I did not feel preferred at Avis.

The rental location closed at midday but we weren’t informed of this when booking. As a result we couldn’t pick up our car. The Budget location at Sacramento airport wouldn’t honour our booking either se we had to cancel and use another company.

The staff was very friendly and even though I didn't get the car I reserved, I really liked the rental they gave me instead. It would be nice if dropping off could be more efficient, especially since the staff was already slammed with trying to help ppl who were picking up rentals for the weekend (they were working as fast as they can they deserve an award), so we were just kinda standing around until someone had time to check the car we were returning. But all in all a good experience and I would definitely recommend to others.
