KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Murfreesboro
- Driving cheap car rentals in Murfreesboro gives you the flexibility to visit nearby destinations. You don't have to board buses that travel at specific hours to various towns. High Point Climbing & Fitness is the best driving place if you love outdoor activities. It's 83 (134km) miles southeast of Murfreesboro and only a two-hour drive from the city. Another destination is Mammoth Cave National Park, approximately 86 miles (138) north of the city and 2h 10min drive. Shiloh National Military Park is your best destination if you enjoy long drives. It's located about 120 miles (193km) southwest of the city and a 2h 40min drive.
- Renting a 4x4 rental car is the best choice for personal or non-business reasons for cheap car rentals in Murfreesboro. It enables you to drive in urban, inter-urban, and secondary streets conveniently. Car rental agencies provide various models, including SUVs and vans. Again, you can get to several destinations despite driving in the city's muddy, rocky, and snowy road conditions. Further, Murfreesboro has varying speed limits near schools and crossing zones of 25 mph (40km/h) to ensure people's safety. Therefore, using a 4x4 rental car helps you to descend at slower speeds, avoid getting stuck in the mud, and drive on steep declines and inclines.
- Murfreesboro streets have numerous crosswalks for pedestrians. Again, most roads have numerous marked sidewalks for pedestrian safety. However, some streets, such as Mercury Boulevard, lack sidewalks between Baird Lane and Hancock Street. This means you should watch out for pedestrians when driving your rental vehicle along these two streets. In addition, the roads have signposts displaying speed bumps, crossroads, and the intersection of major highways. Hence, check your GPS to see the busy streets and best routes to drive on throughout the city before driving your rental car. Also, contact customer care to help you understand safe roads in the city.
- Your stay in Murfreesboro can use the comforts provided by a rental car as you visit the plentiful attractions in the city. The Stones River National Battlefield, rich with history and scenic trails, is on Old Nashville Highway. In its vicinity are Oaklands Mansion and Cannonburgh Village, which you can get to by your rental car in Murfreesboro in less than 10min. You can also seek entertainment from the parties and events on Mayday Brewery on Old Salem Road. If country music is your cup of tea, a rental car would be a convenient means of transport to the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville, approximately 32 miles from Murfreesboro.
- Murfreesboro Municipal Airport is approximately 3 miles from Murfreesboro city center. The local airport has no rental car center on-site, and you might have to travel to Downtown Murfreesboro to rent a car. The closest international airport to Murfreesboro is Nashville International Airport, located roughly 30 miles from Murfreesboro. To find the Rental Car Center at the airport, you can go down one level from the baggage claim area using the escalator. Once on the Ground Transportation Level, follow the signs to the Murfreesboro Car Rentals, with counters for Budget, Avis, Hertz, and Enterprise, which you can book through KAYAK.
- Downtown Murfreesboro is home to a dense network of roadways, including Old Fort Parkway, Memorial Blvd, and the busy Broadway Street. A navigation system, which you can easily install in the car rented from Murfreesboro car rentals, can be a helpful tool when driving through the city center. Moreover, Murfreesboro drivers are relatively aggressive, which is one more reason to be a driver with a keen eye. If driving through Maple Street, be alert as jaywalking is common in the area.
- As Murfreesboro morning rush hour starts early at 6am, you should be on the road at least 30min before then. The traffic is worse between 7am and 7:30am but returns to normal levels at about 8:30am. In the afternoon, the rush hour runs last between 3:30pm and 6:30pm. During these times, I-24 is synonymous with heavy traffic. Thus, you should start driving early enough if traveling to a time-sensitive event.
- Book your rental car in Murfreesboro at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Pros:
NothingCons:
Enterprise called me shortly after my initial reservation and said they had no cars available for my selected time, but they would have a vehicle for me later in the day. Thirty minutes before my new pick up time, that enterprise set, they called me to tell me they didn’t have a car for me. I explained to them that I needed a car desperately and would be willing to take any vehicle, and pay any price associated with a new vehicle. The person I spoke with then told me they had no cars at all as their current stock was already set to be rented out for the day. The associate then asked if there was anything else she could do for me, then ended the call. Long story short enterprise shouldn’t rent out cars if they know they don’t have the stock to fulfill the customer promise.2.0 Poor

Jan. 2016
Pros:
I've rented a lot of these types of vans and this one was the best with all the upgrades that have been done. When I reserved the van, I reserved a "mini van" but when I went to pick up, I was offered either a 8 passenger van with extra cargo room or a SUV. I took the van. It did really well. The price was great. Check in was quick. Check out took a bit longer but it was also the end of the day. I will definitely look to them again when:if I need to rent a vehicle again.6.0 Okay
Jan. 2016
Pros:
I did not like anything about this rental. The car we had was the most miserable ride. Extremely uncomfortable seats and less than efficient shock absorbers. The car had not been cleaned between customers and smelled of smoke. I returned the car 22 hours early and was given no rebate. That is a bad policy.2.0 Poor
