What are the driving conditions like in Utah?

When it comes to car rental in Utah, you’ll come across similar driving conditions to that of the UK, except you’ll be driving on the other side of the road of course. There are major roads and highways that link the state capital, Salt Lake City with numerous other parts of the state. The I-15 motorway is the longest and runs through the capital and the entire state, from the border of Idaho to the border of Arizona in the south. The I-70 also links with the I-15 but joining from Colorado in the east and connecting around Fishlake National Forest, while the I-80 runs from east to west in the north part of the state going through Wyoming, Utah, and Nevada. During the winter months, Utah’s roads can be dangerous due to icy and snowy conditions, so it’s always advised to regularly check the weather reports and drive carefully, whilst making sure your vehicle is equipped with the appropriate gear like winter tyres. For cheap car rental in Utah and for a reliable vehicle for those winter months, we recommend renting an SUV or a pick-up truck so you can handle those long drives in the summer months but also any snowy weather that may come your way during those colder months.

What laws should I be aware of when driving in Utah?

When considering car rental in Utah, it’s essential you know the driving laws that will be different to that of the UK. Firstly, remember that in the United States all vehicles are left-hand drives, and you must drive on the right side of the road. Speed limits across the state are pretty similar to that of European countries and the UK and are clearly signposted on state roads and highways. When it comes to drink driving laws, Utah has the strictest limits in the United States, you cannot exceed a blood alcohol level of 0.05%, so it’s best not to take any risks and avoid alcohol altogether. It is also a legal requirement to always be holding a form of photographic identification in the United States.

What documents do I need to hire a car in Utah?

In order to arrange car hire in Utah, you have to be at least 20 years of age, hold a valid driving licence, a valid passport for identification purposes and provide a major credit card for payment purposes.

Is it worthwhile to book a rental car in Utah?

Car rental in Utah is a great idea, especially if you’re considering exploring large parts of the region. Car hire is the most convenient and logical route to take when it comes to travelling around Utah, purely because public transport and schedules can be time consuming, expensive and they don’t allow you the freedom to travel on your own terms. Major areas like Salt Lake City, Ogden and Provo are all accessible by public transport, however relying on schedules especially during winter months may not be ideal and reduce your chances of visiting as many places as you can. If you choose to hire a car in Utah, you’ll be pleased that you made that choice, more so when you come across a number of great, cheap car hire deals. The south region of the state is much easier to get to by car, particularly as they are more remote, such as Fishlake National Forest, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and Capitol Reef National Park.

Very good experience overall. Rental counter agent was great to deal with. Unfortunately, the vehicle originally assigned to me was not parked in the garage spot indicated (nor anywhere else in the garage, as far as I could tell. This required me to go back to the rental counter with all my bags and get another car assigned. The second time, the car was in the indicated spot. No harm done but I did lose at least a half hour because of the problem. Otherwise, I would have no recommendations for improvement.

So if you do not have good credit or a credit card you cannot rent a car they run a soft credit check before you rent the car they dont tell you until you get to the office.

Good experience with pick up in SLC. Frustration with drop off in Vegas - address did not include exact location- just a huge hotel property. Somehow we were supposed to know the drop off was on the 10th story of the parking garage? Garage was not clearly marked with area to drop keys. Said to put key in the envelope and make time/mileage. No envelopes. Frustrating and took twice as long as expected - making us miss our evening show engagement - a cost of over $200….

I did not like anything about the Hertz in Salt Lake City. We were late to the place because our flight was cancelled and we were rebooked on a different flight that arrived little later than the original. By the time reached Hertz, there all cars were rented and we were offered a tiny SUV which could not accommodate 4 adults and 5 carry-on bags. The attendant was very rude and refused to give us any car because I raised my voice. We were in Utah for 10 days. We could not use the small SUV for tat many days. I will never ever rent from Hertz anymore. I had called them twice and confirmed the car. But, still they had no mid-size SUV for us. I think they just did not have any cars to rent and made it look like they were rented prior to us getting there. The attendant insulted us several times. Me raising my voice was warranted because we were left without a car. This was the worst experience we've ever had travelling anywhere in the world!

Trying to get help with our account was not optimal. The responses we got were" I didn't know how to do that " and "Did you try the web site or email address." If I can't get him free a real person,that tells me the internet is not going to be any better. I'm not that proficient with computers and prefer talking to people .

The counter staff at the Salt Lake City Budget was rude and unhelpful. When we arrived, he informed us that he did not have the 7 passenger one way rental that we reserved back in January. He told us that we could take another car but could not tell us if it was for 5 or 7. He told us to wait while he checked with another budget person in the car pick up area. He ignored us for over 30 minutes and when we returned to the counter, he continued his rude attitude and acted like it was my problem that the car I reserved was not present. In the meantime, my husband went directly to the car pick up area and spoke with "Johnnie" who was extremely helpful. Johnnie reported he had the 7 passenger car and had tried to call the counter staff multiple times but he did not pick up. The counter staff should not be working in customer services. He lacks interpersonal skills and is made no effort to help the situation. This reflects very poorly on Budget that they allow this person to be the first interaction with customers.

If you do not have a credit card , you cannot rent a car from a place to another. You have to bring back the car at the same place where you did take the car. And that despite kayak approved the trip. So i could not have a car arrived at the airport as expected and planed for my trip to another airport. I had to find a solution by myself with a competitor and it was for sure more expensive. If you do have to rent a car from a place to another and if you do not have a credit card but only a debit card as me do not use kayak as they will put you in a delicate situation.

Pickup and dropoff were quick and easy and the vehicle was clean. I traveled for a ski vacation with a large ski bag and reserved an Intermediate SUV, a "Nissan Rogue" or equivalent. They gave me a tiny Chevy Trax and my ski bag would not fit in the vehicle without having the back seat and the front passenger seat in the down position. The Trax is much smaller than the Rogue and transporting the ski bag in it was inconvenient. How disappointing. Beware.

Poor|Oct 2022

After waiting in line for an hour - along with dozens of others, we finally got to the desk only to be told that it would be a two-hour wait for a car despite having a reservation. When I inquired whether there were other vehicles available I was told that they only had pickup trucks currently. When I said that would be fine, the desk agent informed me that I would have to pay an upgraded rate. The desk agent was as kind and sympathetic and blamed the issue on the manager - who was nowhere to be found. We were able to walk next door to Enterprise and secure a vehicle at a cheaper rate in 10 minutes. The manager at Dollar in SLC needs to be fired.
