KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Medford

  • It is highly recommended that visitors of Medford rent a vehicle for the duration of their time in the city. The main reason for this is that there is no other way to get around town. There are some limited bus routes, but their service is often slow and does not cover the entirety of the city. Also, if you plan on enjoying the natural scenery while you are in Medford, having a rental car of your own is certainly the best way to achieve that.
  • Need to pick up your rental car after arriving in Medford? Travelers landing at Rogue Valley International-Medford Airport can find the rental car counters located in the airport’s arrivals area.
  • One thing drivers should keep in mind when driving at night on country roads around Medford is that wildlife is very common in the area. In fact, wildlife such as elk and deer are numerous throughout the whole state of Oregon. While this is not an overly serious concern, it never hurts to be a bit cautious when you are driving late at night on dark roads.
  • Visitors to Medford will be happy to hear that rush hour traffic is not a big deal here. However, there is some degree of congestion during peak hours in the morning, starting at 8:00 a.m. and lasting until 9:00 a.m. Medford’s rush hour congestion pops back up again in the afternoon starting around 4:00 p.m. and then finishes off around 6:00 p.m. Aside from those two periods, though, there is not too much congestion to worry about. Most of the city’s congestion is also limited to Crater Lake Highway, particularly as it nears I-5.
  • Medford has several shared streets, including Tontine Street, Sterns Avenue, Main Street between Willis Avenue and Golden Avenue, Logan Avenue, Bradshaw Street, and Burbank Road. These streets are clustered but have signs of slowing the traffic and keeping pedestrians safe. Therefore, be careful after booking from Medford car rentals to drive within the city. Watch out for the road signs because this’s where most residents enjoy their outdoor activities. Again, observe when crossing Fourth Street in downtown Medford where there are two intersections. Though there are crosswalk rules, watch out before driving because many pedestrians use this crosswalk daily.
  • You face several penalties if found drunk driving in Medford. Drunk driving is a class one misdemeanor, and you may face one or several penalties. In addition, DUI laws require your blood alcohol limit to be less than 0.08%. If found guilty for the first time, you may face probation of at least 18 to 24 months, a mandatory 12 months of driver's license suspension, a court fine of about $500, 48 to 80 hours of community service, or alcohol treatment programs. Thus, research DUI laws before booking cheap car rentals in Medford to avoid problems with the law.
  • Driving rental cars enable you to drive to various destinations near the city. Again, booking cheap car rentals in Medford saves you money to see multiple attractions. For example, Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park is 91 miles (146km) southwest of Medford and driving takes about 2h 30min. However, a public bus takes approximately 3h 45min to cover the same distance. You can also drive to Stout Grove Redwoods, 75 miles (121km) southwest of Medford. A rental car takes about two hours, but a public bus takes approximately three hours. Mount Shasta, 76 miles (122km) southeast of the city, is the best price to drive to if you love outdoor activities.
  • Book your rental car in Medford at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

FAQs about renting a car in Medford

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

    In downtown Medford, core parking is mostly comprised of on-street parallel parking and metered parking spots. There are a few scattered parking garages and parking lots, but for the most part a combination of streetside parking with private parking at businesses accounts for the majority of parking volume. Parking spots in the garages are generally free for the first hour or two and then charge between $1.00 to $2.00 per hour for additional hours.

  • How much is gas price in Medford?

    The average gas price in Medford is C$ 4.79 per litre over the past 30 days. Filling up a gas tank costs between C$ 57 and C$ 77, depending on the car size.

  • What are some of the toll roads in Medford?

    Medford doesn’t have toll roads in the entire city. However, you should research to see if there’re toll roads near the city if you need to take a longer drive. This helps you to avoid fines due to a lack of a ticket.

Pros:

Car was clean and at least they had one for me. The gentleman behind the counter was nice.

Cons:

I picked up my car at the Medford airport. There's no signage indicating you have to go inside to pick up the rental, I just happened to walk inside after driving around the rental vehicle lot. I had booked an economy car (small size) and instead got stuck with a big gas guzzler on a 6-hour drive home. So while the initial rental was cheap, with the cost of gas it ended up being more than if I had just rented somewhere else. I was one person traveling by myself; I didn't want or need a massive SUV instead of a standard sedan and I'm not sure why an airport has so much trouble getting a variety of vehicles.

It took over an hour after my flight for a car to be available- apparently they needed to be cleaned even though I had this reservations weeks in advance. I liked that they offered an upgrade instead of me having to ask.

The employees at the check in desk were AMAZING - they dealt with a tricky conflict situation with someone else ahead of me but handled it professionally. Shout out to both the desk person and manager there for doing their jobs well.

Car was fine, clean and the model was as requested. The pick up was terrible. There was a line of twenty people ahead of us! Medford is a small airport and when multiple flights come in I understand it can be hectic. But all the other counters had 1 or 2 people and quickly on their way. After 20-30 minutes we finally made it to the front and were told we'd have to wait for our vehicle which took another 30 minutes to appear! After that, smooth sailing!

It could have been better if I got a car I reserved 6 months prior and if I didn’t have to spend a 1/2 Hr on the phone for a refund on gas. I brought it back the same as I got it and it was 4-5 gallons short of full and the ignition locked up creating a lot of stress

We reserved and intermediate car but were given a large (Chrysler 300). The agent told me that there were no intermediate cars available unless I chose to wait, although there were Corollas and other similar cars on the lot. We came back in a few days and the new agent offered me a Prius, which I took.

This location closes at 2p so if you are planning on renting a car keep that in mind. Also not at the airport with no shuttle. Couldn't even use the reservation we made since it was for 2p and we got in at 230p. This is more Kayak's fault than Avis. First and last time user of Kayak.

I confirmed a mid size car that said it would accommodate 5 passengers and 3 suitcases. When we got to the rental all they had was a 2 door mustang convertible. Despite other cars being on the lots that’s all they would give me since I was returning at another location. No assistance whatsoever. Terrible customer service.
