KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Huntsville

  • Rent a car for your stay in Huntsville to make the most of your trip and explore everything the city has to offer, like the US Space and Rocket Center or the many land trusts dotted around the city. Seize the opportunity to also check out the surroundings along the Tennessee River like Point Mallard Water Park, which is a half-hour drive from Huntsville’s center.
  • Huntsville International Airport is located 13 miles southwest of the city center, and the quickest way to reach the city is by renting a car on the airport grounds. The airport boasts various onsite rental agencies like Budget, Enterprise, and Avis, which offer cars for every taste and need. To be in Huntsville within less than twenty minutes, head to the I-565 E when leaving the airport.
  • Winter can bring plenty of snow to the state of Alabama, and Huntsville’s roads can be dangerously slippery during these months. With proper winter tires and defensive driving, travelers should, however, face no problems with their rental car. Ensure there is also an ice scraper in the car to clear windows and mirrors after a frosty night.
  • Huntsville is one of the bigger cities in Alabama, and traffic congestions are regular companions of everyday driving. If you are not keen to be stuck in traffic jams, refrain from driving through the city between rush hours, which are usually in the morning between 7 and 9 am and from 5 to 8 pm in the evening. Especially the arterial interstates 565 and US-431 face increased traffic during these times.
  • If you are in Huntsville and are looking forward to visiting the neighboring cities’ attractions, consider getting cheap car rentals in Huntsville. Madison City has some top attractions, such as the Memorial Union Terrace that sits on Lake Mendota shores. The place is scenic and is excellent for family visits during the weekend, thanks to the great dining spots. It will take you approximately 11h to get to the venue, about 730 miles away. On the other hand, public transport would take you about 20h to get there. Therefore, Huntsville car rentals are ideal for trips outside the city.
  • Cheap car rentals in Huntsville International Airport are most preferred by passengers arriving at the airport. They are highly rated because of their location at the airport, close to the Arrivals. This makes it easy for you to access a rental car without taking taxis or other public transport means into the city. Follow the labeled signs once you are at the bottom floor of the Arrivals towards the baggage claim area. You’ll find the counters of Huntsville car rentals such as Budget, Enterprise, and Alamo, among others. In addition, the pick-ups at the airport make it convenient for you to drive off the airport with your rental car.
  • While driving your rental car in Huntsville, remember that cyclists have the same responsibilities and rights on roads as you, the driver. Therefore, the chances are that you will encounter many cyclists as you navigate your way through the city. As you approach them, consider overtaking them like you’d overtake a vehicle. Give way to them if they have the right of way. Going against such rules can land you in trouble with the law. Therefore, being respectful and responsible to cyclists you share the road with in Huntsville is essential.

FAQs about renting a car in Huntsville

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

    Huntsville is the perfect base for venturing out into the beautiful Alabama countryside, and a 4-wheel-drive car promises a smooth and safe ride. Especially when visiting during the winter, the roads can be covered with sleet or snow and drivers will want to have sufficient traction for their trips in and around the city.

  • What’s the speed limit in Huntsville?

    If there is no speed limit sign posted, 30 mph is permitted to drive within the city limits of Huntsville. On rural roads outside the city, 45 mph is allowed, and 70 mph is the limit on interstates and freeways. Always adjust your speed for the prevailing weather and road conditions, especially when snow or ice cover the roads.

  • Where are the best places to park in Huntsville?

    There are various parking options in Huntsville, including metered on-street parking as well as public lots and garages. On-street parking costs about $0.50 per hour and time restrictions apply Monday through Friday from 8 am to 5 pm. Parking outside these times and on public holidays is free.

With this type of road, you can drive different car rentals in Huntsville without a hitch. In addition, luxurious limousines can be easily driven across the city and parked in some parking zones.

Great experience at the counter. The car was dirty and probably not cleaned yet. I think they were just so busy turning cars around. I with the 4 hours I had the car were cheaper. This is why I rated it the way I did.
