Book Hertz car rentals in Chicago

• Where are the best pick-up locations for Hertz car rentals in Chicago?

  Hertz has several pick-up locations that are particularly convenient for customers. For example, the locations on West Belmont Avenue and North Clark Street are both centrally located within the city, making them nice options. There is also a pick-up location at O'Hare International Airport (ORD), which is handy for anyone that will be flying into this transportation hub.

• Am I able to pick my own Hertz car rentals in Chicago, or will I be assigned a vehicle by the company?

  When you first make your reservation with Hertz in Chicago, the company will ask you to select the vehicle model that you would like to rent. However, Hertz does not guarantee that you will receive this specific model, as this entirely depends on what is available at the time in the fleet of the branch that you will be renting from. If the model that you have requested is not available, you will instead be given a similar car, either from the same auto manufacturer you asked for, or a different one.

• Is it possible for me to have Hertz car rentals in Chicago delivered directly to me?

  Hertz offers a service known as Hertz Neighborhood Delivery, which allows individuals to have their car rental delivered directly to their personal residence, office building, or hotel. This is particularly convenient for those that do not have access to transportation to travel to a branch themselves, or who are short on time. To benefit from this service, you will want to make sure that you notify the branch you will be renting from well in advance, as the availability of this perk depends on the availability of Hertz employees at the time of your requested delivery.

They added hidden fees and charged me for gas even though I had returned the tank with more than I left it with. You expect to pay a premium with Hertz so that you don’t have to deal with chasing their customer service. It is truly useless to have a smooth pickup process if it means that you’ll have to track them down later because they charged you the price you paid ahead of time over in fees. Very disappointing.Reviewed 24 Mar 2025

We reserved a car at the airport after our flight home was canceled and we chose to drive instead of wait 2 days for the next available flight. Hertz refused to honor the reservation because it wasn’t made at least 24 hours in advance. Thankfully Alamo was more understanding of the situation and rented us a car so we could drive home.Reviewed 8 Aug 2024
