Is it worthwhile to book a rental car in Missouri?

While traveling in Missouri, it is definitely recommended that you opt for a car rental since public transportation here is quite limited and not worth the hassle. If possible, go for something with 4WD capabilities if you plan to visit any rural areas or parks where getting stuck may be an issue. Some popular cities you can visit that are accessible by car or rental vehicle in Missouri include Kansas City, Springfield, St. Louis, and Hannibal. That being said, the fact that public transportation isn't widely used in Missouri means you'll be driving yourself around quite a lot so getting cheap car rental for your trip is essential if you don't want to miss out on anything. Once you get into the rural parts of the state, it's pretty much impossible to navigate without one.

What are the driving conditions like in Missouri?

While driving in Missouri, you'll have no problems at all on roads outside of big cities and especially once you get out into rural areas, where traffic is sparse to begin with. It's also quite easy to navigate around the state during your stay as there aren't any major highways or thruways. However, it is worth noting that all vehicles with Missouri plates can travel on any road in the state without a passenger fee or toll you would pay if you had to use a thruway or highway. One thing about rest areas worth mentioning is that they are few and far between throughout the state of Missouri, so be sure to fill up before you leave a large city. Most of them are pretty small as well. Additionally, there aren’t many parking options in the big cities as parking spaces are at a premium.

What Missouri driving laws should I be aware of?

You'll want to know that in Missouri the minimum age for a driver's license is 16. Drivers in Missouri must always wear safety belts and children under 4 years old must be either seated in an approved seat or secured with a proper child car restraint device when riding in a motor vehicle. Only two adult passengers are allowed to ride in a vehicle where seat belts aren't equipped, but those riding in the back must be no younger than 8 years old.

What type of documentation do I need to rent a car in Missouri?

While seeking cheap rental cars in Missouri, you'll need to have a driver's license from your home country as well as an international one that is valid for at least the length of time you plan on staying here. If your license ever expires while abroad, be sure to renew it through the embassy or consulate of your home country or risk facing heavy fines and penalties for driving without a license. If you are 21 years old or younger, you will also have to maintain a provisional or learner's permit from your home country that is valid for the duration of your trip. This requirement doesn't just apply if your driver's license is inapplicable but if you don't have one at all, so be sure you take this into consideration when working on your car rental.

You still have over charged me $160. I spent more than 2.5 hours trying to rectify this all the way up to management, and even after signing a 1 way contract from STL to SPI somehow you (AVIS) put in DFW and added an extra day even thought the car was used for a total of 10 hours from pick up to drop off to the location I contracted for...not DFW. I will seek remedies through the Attorney Generals offices of both states. I believe you regularly fraudulently over charge clients in similar manners and then exasperate and wear them down transfering them numerous times to bogus other transfers and finally making them give up. Disgusting and not without consequences and accountability. Quoted and signed for total charges of $144 and then charged $920 for a 10 hour rental!!!!!!!!! Also talked down to repeatedly like an idiot... How is this for a review? Imagine if this happened to you or someone you care about. SHAME ON AVIS! Absolute Fraud!

Didn't get the car until an hour and a half after the reservation time. The car was only half full (didn't notice until after I had left and at that time of night I was not going back).

I returned it full tank as arranged and was only offered $20. Shabby outfit, never again.

Wonderful|Aug 2023

All in all, we were impressed with the front desk service we received from Hertz. I am not as impressed with the telephone CS we received. We made the mistake of assuming that Hertz, like the other three car rental agencies we've dealt with, wouldn't charge for additional drivers. And I feel like this should have been plainer up front. When I learned that joining Hertz Gold-Plus Rewards would have saved us that fee, I enrolled in it and then attempted to add the existing rental to the membership. But it didn't work. I then reached out via phone to see if there as a workaround. There was not, according to the CSA I spoke with and I was stuck with what I had. However, when we went to the agency to pick up the car, and I set about adding my husband to the contract, the customer service agent there, happily added the rental to the membership and we were able to rent that car without further fees. Also, for the first time ever, we damaged a rental car. It was relatively minor (damaged bumper), but because we'd added the Loss-Damage-Waver, we weren't on the hook for any of the repairs. This was a huge relief. The vehicle was great--very comfortable and met our needs beautifully. Very satisfied with this.

The Altima rode smooth but getting in and out was too low I would have preferred a car that wasn't a low rider. Customer service was ok but when we were sent to find our car in the lot, there wasn't anyone to greet us to find our car and explain that we could pick any car in a certain area. We just didn't know how their system worked, so I had to go and find someone to help us and then she explained the process.

The seats of the Nissan Altima were very comfortable since we had to sit in them for over 26 hours during a 35 hour period. We also were held up by traffic on our trip for many hours which meant our return time was going to be later than expected. Upon calling Alamo (Tiffany assisted me), it was taken care of quickly with no extra charge since it was still within the 2 day period for the rental. Lastly, the gas mileage was very good and better than what I was expecting for a large car.

When we arrived there were two clerks who moved slower than molasses on a January morning. The gentleman at the Budget counter was argumentative and rude. The lady was a bit more with it but disinterested in helping very much. We were in St. Louis because my partner was dying, my son and I needed to get there as soon as possible. We reached out to the online provider, and they were very helpful. I am so glad they were able to assist us in changing the reservation and obtaining the rental vehicle. I will not use Dollar services again.

Confusing at first as it was serviced by the same people running hertz. We were waiting in the Dollar lane but no one would serve us or tell us we had to line up at hertz even through the front counter staff could clearly see us standing there. The first car we got was not great. The brakes needed to be serviced but we were lucky enough to be helped by the Springfield airport branch who gave us a new car (although it was a bit of a process- no fault of theirs)
