KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Spartanburg

Several car rental agencies in Spartanburg offer car rental services. In addition, getting car rentals in Spartanburg will make journeys to destinations out of the city convenient. For example, you may drive up to Charlotte, NC, to explore the NASCAR Hall of Fame, approximately 73 miles away.
  • Driving with Spartanburg car rentals requires awareness of South Carolina's legal drinking and driving laws. All drivers should be aware that individuals aged 21 and over are not permitted to operate a vehicle if their blood alcohol content (BAC) level is 0.8% or higher. Those below the legal age of 21 are not allowed to drive when their BAC levels exceed 0.02%. To ensure that you remain safe, consider adding an additional driver to your car rental agreement so that you always have a safe ride in case you consume alcohol. The additional driver could be your spouse or a domestic worker.

Booster seats are recommended for children aged 4 and older who have outgrown their forward-facing car seats. If they are eight years old or have exceeded 57" in height, restrain them with an adult safety belt.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Spartanburg?

Finally, getting an SUV is crucial during the winter season. SUVs have higher ground clearance, ideal for driving on snow-filled roads. The higher clearance ensures you don't get stuck in light snow.

However, you are required to drive to a maximum speed on 70 mph when on the interstate freeway.

In addition, county roads have a speed limit of 30 mph and 45 mph on other roads with no definitive sign showing the speed limit. Maintaining these speed limits will ensure you do not get a ticket.

  • Can I pick a rental in Spartanburg and drop it off at an alternative location?

These include Dunbar Street Garage, which is adjacent to East Main Street, Kennedy Street Garage next to Downtown Public Library, and St. John Street Garage close to Barnet Park, among others.

Apr 2017

KAYAK

Pros:

The vehicle it self was very nice.

Cons:

I reserved a SUV almost 3 weeks before our trip because of my wife being in a wheelchair and being blind. I needed room for her wheelchair plus SUV's are easier for her to get in and out of. Well I went to pick up the rental and we went through the whole process even the payment and as we are heading towards the door the guy tells me that the only thing that he has available is a full size pickup truck. I had no choice but to take it because I had already paid for it plus we were scheduled to go on our trip that day. I was also surprised when I was told that there was a $200 security deposit. I'm ok with that I just wasn't expecting it especially when I was told when I reserved it that the only thing that I would owe would be the price of the rental. I also feel like I was suckered into but extra insurance after I had already bought insurance when I reserved the vehicle. The guy knew that this was my first time renting a vehicle and it will probably be my last.

I wasn’t able to get my money back and because I couldn’t receive the car I missed a important work event. Not sure if I’ll use budget again
