Top tips for renting a car from Hertz in Tuscaloosa

  • Once you decide to book Hertz car rentals in Tuscaloosa, you will need to decide what type of car you want. SUVs are a popular choice in Tuscaloosa, especially if you plan to explore the surrounding natural attractions, go camping, or need extra space for passengers and gear. If you want to enhance your travel experience or have a special event or business meeting in Tuscaloosa, consider renting a luxury car for style and comfort. In pleasant weather, convertible cars can be an enjoyable option, allowing you to soak up the sun and enjoy the open road.
  • One reason that so many folks choose to book Hertz car rentals in Tuscaloosa is the Hertz loyalty program called Hertz Gold Plus Rewards. Gold members enjoy expedited service at Hertz rental counters, reducing the time they spend waiting in line. Members earn points for every dollar spent on Hertz rentals, which can be redeemed for free rental days or other rewards. You will often have access to an exclusive selection of vehicles and the ability to reserve specific car classes, ensuring you get the vehicle you want.
  • One thing to keep in mind when you book Hertz car rentals in Tuscaloosa is that Tuscaloosa has a hot and humid climate during the summer months. Air conditioning helps passengers stay comfortable and prevents heat-related discomfort or health issues. Driving in extreme heat without air conditioning can lead to fatigue and decreased concentration, increasing the risk of accidents. Traveling with passengers, especially children or elderly individuals, can be uncomfortable and even dangerous in a hot and humid car. Air conditioning ensures the comfort and safety of all passengers.
  • Something to remember when you book Hertz car rentals in Tuscaloosa is that Tuscaloosa is home to the University of Alabama, and when there are major events, such as football games or other university activities, traffic can become very congested, both before and after the event. In periods of rain, severe weather, or occasional winter weather events, driving conditions can become more challenging. Reduced visibility, slippery roads, and increased caution from other drivers are factors to consider during such times.
  • Compact rental cars from Hertz in Tuscaloosa are around 26% cheaper than other car types, on average.

Did not get rental car because when I went to pick it up, I was told I would be charged double the price stated on Kayak because this location does not allow after hours drop off and would be required to keep it until Monday at my expense. The Hertz agent blamed Kayak.Reviewed 12 Nov 2023

They didn’t have a car for me. You should have checked.Reviewed 20 Nov 2022

The Tuscaloosa, AL location is based solely on customer returns, meaning if other people don’t return their vehicle on time there is not one available for you. This happened to me and multiple other customers before the holidays, and I ended up unable to go on my vacation because despite a reservation I was never given a car. I’m still in a financial battle with Hertz to get my money back. They only have an unhelpful website, and claim a 5% fee to talk to an actual human being on the phone. Utterly ridiculous.Reviewed 28 Dec 2021
