KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Bloomington
- Reserving a car rental in Bloomington lets you enjoy the convenience of touring the city without the hassles of public transit. A rental car allows you the flexibility to proceed to your destination directly without transfers. Additionally, a rental car saves you time as you don’t have to queue up in bus stations and grants you privacy and comfort, unlike public transportation. A trip to Bloomington would be incomplete without visiting Hoosier National Park, WonderLab Museum, and Indiana University.
- Obtaining a Bloomington car rental is easy at Indianapolis International Airport (IND), provided you have a valid driver’s license and are at least 21. The car rental companies, including SIXT and Budget, are in the reception area of the Ground Transportation Center, outside the terminal, and you can access it via the walkway. You will pick up your rental car at the parking garage outside the baggage claim, behind the reception area.
- To ensure your safety and that of other motorists while driving your car rental in Bloomington, there are a few driving tips you should know. Turn cautiously and indicate, as some drivers may be aggressive. You should also be keen while driving your rental car, as jaywalking is common. Follow the driving rules and drive your rental car safely behind the vehicle ahead of you. The vehicle on your right at an intersection and emergency vehicles with flashing lights have the right of way.
- Bloomington experiences its fair share of traffic congestion, especially during rush hours. Morning rush hour hits Bloomington between 7 and 9 am, and the evening peak hours are from 5 to 7 pm. It is best to plan your trip ahead of time and avoid driving during these times to evade traffic snarl-ups. Alternatively, you can plan your routes through back roads and small streets like Walnut Street and Lincoln Street.
- Book your rental car in Bloomington at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Mini rental cars in Bloomington are around -72% cheaper than other car types, on average

Pros:

Check-in process took 30 minutes because they couldn’t figure out how to do the technology. He signed the rental agreement for me which I think is illegal. The car didn’t have a full tank of gas and wasn’t clean. Then they were closed on Sundays when my scheduled return was and I got charged for an extra day. Don’t rent from here!!!!Hertz

Jul. 2020
Cons:
. The facility itself was so dirty. Trash laying around the waiting room. Looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in weeks. One person working the entire facility. He was doing his best but the process wasn’t great. There was no walk around to mark dings/imperfections on the car. My car was filthy when I got it. Not only was there NO sanitation/COVID cleaning there were cracker crumbs on the floor of the backseat. Dog hair all over. The navigation/backup camera screen was shattered. It was not good. The person working there said there weren’t any other cars he could give me. I had to be at an appointment in a few minutes so there wasn’t anything I could do. Thankfully, upon return, they did not charge me for the rental. The person working there did his best to make the situation right but they clearly need more staff if he’s the only one expected to run the counter, check in and out cars AND clean. It was not a good experience and I would be renting from here again.6.4 Okay
Dec. 2019

The car smelled of cigarettes and wasn’t very clean. The gas gauge was also broken on the car. Filled up the tank before dropping off but only showed it was 3/4ths full.7.6 Good
Sep. 2019
Pros:
The vehicle was almost new, very nicely equipped and comfortable. We received extraordinary service when we returned the car to O’Hare airport. Unfortunately I don’t remember the man’s name, but we were very impressed by his willingness to help my family with our luggage, etcCons:
The car was extremely dirty on the outside and a little dirty on the inside8.4 Very good

Pros:
Price was goodCons:
Didn't have car I ordered. Sent me all over town just have to come back to same location. CAR BROKE DOWN. Sent to airport to be sent back to broken down location 3 hours later. They had no idea what they were doing. Agent in Charolette (Sheridan location) was rude.2.0 Poor
May 2017
Pros:
If I could give zero stars here, I would.Cons:
Twenty minutes before pick up time, rental place calls me and says "we don't have any vans...sorry they let you book it" So, trip ruined, 7 people didn't get to go as planned, etc. bad birthday for my daughter. Furthermore, Kayak accepted no responsibility and passed the buck to Payless... Just a sad situation. I also was charged for insurance on the vehicle that I never even picked up...since there was NOTHING available.3.2 Poor
May 2016
Pros:
The car was the perfect size for our needs.Cons:
The 30 minute wait (really 30 minutes) to get my rental, while the salesperson tried to upsell the only other person in the rental trailer. It is quite a drive to the off site rental trailer. The wear on the outside of the car was very noticeable. Lots of nicks, and chrome pealing.8.0 Very good
