Insights shared by verified travelers who rented a car in Wilmington 
Verified travelerSep 2024
Wilmington is much like other towns, so choice of car depends mostly on renter's needs. Traffic is undemanding, parking isn't difficult to find and roads are pretty clear and straightforward.
Verified travelerFeb 2024
Signage could be better for turning, sites to see; and more.
Verified travelerOct 2023
Driving is fine, like any other city just follow the laws!
Verified travelerJun 2023
Thank you for a smooth check in in Wilmington and a great car. Drop off was a 10 out of 10. The fellow at RDU location was fast, friendly and professional. Many thanks!
AdamAug 2023
The line is always shortest for Enterprise/Alamo or National. It's a very quick walk from the terminal to the rental car lot, no shuttle.
Verified travelerJul 2023
On street parking (meters) is free after 6pm in some areas!

None - all well done. It's the DCA location that needs clear notice to renters.

KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Wilmington

  • Car rentals in Wilmington are a convenient way to visit the city and its neighborhoods, granting you flexibility and freedom to move around. Whether in Wilmington for business or holiday, choosing a Wilmington car rental company through KAYAK gives you the opportunity to visit different attractions and discover Wilmington neighborhoods at your convenience. For instance, you can travel places like Water Street Center, Harbor Oaks, Historic Downtown Wilmington, or even go to Carolina, Kure, or Wrightsville Beach, where you can unwind and enjoy local meals, such as cheesesteak egg rolls.
  • Different Wilmington car rental companies offer various vehicles depending on client needs. Picking a rental car from these companies is easy and will take you a few minutes since they are located within a short walking distance from the Wilmington International Airport. For instance, Alamo is a 10min walk from the airport. Other car rental companies that are within a walking distance from the airport include Enterprise, National, Dollar, Thrifty, Hertz, among many others.
  • Wilmington’s law enforcement officials are strategically located at different points to ensure drivers adhere to driving rules. The strategy has improved the road conditions and community impacts by reducing crime rates in the neighborhoods. While using your Wilmington rental car, ensure you stop at a stoplight, stick to the speed limits, observe traffic circle rules, and stick to the correct lanes to avoid problems with the highway patrol, as it might affect your experience.
  • If you plan to drive around Wilmington and its neighborhoods, we recommend you avoid rush hours, from around 7am to 8am and from about 6pm to 7:30pm. Wilmington traffic in various areas, such as the South College Road in Wilmington, may be challenging for a foreign driver as multiple cars line the middle lane during peak hours. If you have to drive during rush hour, avoid going through Market Street, Carolina Beach Road, and Oleander Drive, which can be quite congested.
  • Booking a rental car near the airport is the best choice, whether for business or personal reasons. Wilmington car rentals such as Budget, Hertz, Avis, and Enterprise are located near Wilmington International Airport. These companies are located near the only terminal in the airport, which has eight gates. Thus, picking up your rental car in the city is easy and convenient. The distance from the airport to the city center is 4.5 miles (7.2km) and takes about 8min using a rental vehicle. A bus takes 11min to cover the same distance. Again, you can choose affordable car rentals in Wilmington from those near the airport if you’re on a tight budget.
  • Choose a comfortable, spacious, and affordable rental car that meets your needs. It should have all the safety features, including seatbelt reminders, airbags, luggage space, a toll pass, and parking sensors. Ensure your car rental agency checks the functionality of these features before picking up your rental car. Some types of rental vehicles to choose from include standard SUV, intermediate SUV, Compact, economy, luxury, and supplier choice. Prices vary depending on the car rental company. Thus, choose cheap car rentals in Wilmington to avoid affecting your budget despite your reason for renting the car.
  • Be careful when driving your rental vehicle in Wilmington during winter. The icy, steep, and hilly roads are slippery, and you're prone to accidents and fatal injuries. That’s why most car rental companies offer different models of 4WD vehicles for renters to choose from. However, most companies give tips for driving on slippery roads, such as driving on matching tires, turning off traction control and driving slower on curvy snowy roads. Despite these weather conditions, these rental companies offer cheap car rentals in Wilmington that are affordable to most renters in the city.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Wilmington for $52 or less
  • Luxury rental cars in Wilmington are around 78% cheaper than other car types, on average

Drop off was quite a problem as they had no parking spots available as instructed to park the car in those spots and no one working at the time not couldn’t get any time of help on what to do over the phone either. That took a whole lot of extra minutes and we almost missed our flight. On top of that, I never got my receipt back after the opening hours so decided to call to make sure all was ok and they said the reservation number I had which was my hertz receipt number given by them wasn’t pulling up my information, was someone else. They couldn’t find my reservation with the number they provided me nor my drivers license nor my last name. Finally only by my credit card charge they found me but said it was a different reservation number than I had - which was my hertz receipt tho. And then they said it was still an open reservation as if I still had the car when I absolutely didn’t. So they still haven’t checked it out and finalized my rental. By 11pm I finally got the receipt email sent after calling them abs going through all that around 3pm and car was dropped off at 5am.

We decided to get the car a few days earlier and changed the reservation with the help of customer service of budget itself. We also recieved a confirmation with the new data. As we tried to pick up our car we had to learn that the budget shop will not honor our reservation and that they have no car for us. Fur sure we had a lot of trouble to reorganize our whole trip.

I noticed my reservation was for noon but I didn't arrive until 7:45pm so I updated my reservation through Thrifty but they denied it was updated. When I arrived, they informed me they cancelled my reservation because it was 8 hours earlier. Then they informed me they had no cars and walked away. They didn't try to help, they didn't offer no apology. They didn't care. I will never use Thrifty again.

Pros:

Staff was very friendly. They did not have record of my economy car reservation from Kayak. They were able to place me in a Ford F150 instead of an economy sized car that was ordered. The lady stated that 3rd party vendors information doesn't always come through with details.

Cons:

Have the car size as requested.

4.4 Mediocre

Pros:

Not much.

Cons:

Once the staff showed up at the booth they were friendly and helpful. But I had to wait 25 minutes and call the person since they were "moving cars around". Then there were "computer problems", so the pick off took way much longer than it should have. I was told that the "manager's special" that I reserved was an F-150 pick up truck. There was nothing on my reservation that said that so I couldn't dispute it - so in order to get a smaller car, I was charged an additional $10 per day. Plus I was tired from traveling all day, it had already taken way to long to pick up a car, so I didn't argue. I think they plan things that way.
