KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Greensboro

  • Renting a car is the most comfortable and convenient way to tour the city of Greensboro, North Carolina, as well as other main destinations across the state. Explore unmissable attractions such as the International Civil Rights Center and Museum or the Greensboro Arboretum, which is only 3 miles from downtown. For a longer road trip, head to Charlotte, about 90 miles away.
  • All the big car hire agencies, including Alamo, Avis, Enterprise, and Hertz, can be found at Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO), which is about 12 miles from Greensboro’s city center. The car hire desks are located near the Baggage Claim area in the airport’s main terminal. The vehicles are typically parked within walking distance.
  • Fall is the best time to visit, as the weather is mostly dry after the typically wet spring and summer, which often see rainfall and thunderstorms. Avoid driving in the downtown area, as it’s usually pretty packed, and park the car in the surrounding areas instead. A good tip to make use of your car is to drive it through the Guilford Courthouse National Military Park for a self-guided tour.
  • Although Greensboro has one of the best commute times in the country, the roads still get busier during rush hour, both in the morning (between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m.) and in the evening (between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m.). The area near the Coliseum experiences traffic jams every time there’s a big event. The Elm-Eugene stretch downtown and Gate City Boulevard can also get rather busy.
  • Book your car hire in Greensboro at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Compact hire cars in Greensboro are around 44% more expensive than other car types, on average

FAQs about hiring a car in Greensboro

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Greensboro?

    A small automatic car is a good option for travelers who don't require much space for passengers or luggage, as it is easy to drive and park around Greensboro. If you’re traveling throughout North Carolina, a spacious sedan or an SUV might offer more comfort, especially if the whole family is on board too.

  • What’s the speed limit in Greensboro?

    The speed limit within Greensboro is usually 35 miles per hour (mph), but it may be lower in certain residential areas, in which case speed limit signs will be posted. Rural roads typically have a speed limit of 55 mph and interstates all have posted speed limits, with the maximum being 70 mph.

  • Where are the best places to park in Greensboro?

    Although there are on-street parking spaces available in downtown Greensboro, the public parking lots and decks are the best option. The Bellemeade Street Parking Deck, located at the corner of Bellemeade and Elm streets, is open 24 hours a day. It charges $0.75 per hour, with the first hour being free and free parking between 6 and 9 p.m. Parking your car there after 9 p.m. will cost you $2 per hour.

  • How much is the price of fuel in Greensboro?

    The average price of fuel in Greensboro is $5.64 per litre over the past 30 days. Filling up a tank of fuel costs between $68 and $90, depending on the car size.

  • What is the most popular car hire in Greensboro?

    Compact (Ford Focus or similar) is the most frequently booked car hire type in Greensboro.

  • How can I find car hires near me in Greensboro?

    Take a look at our extensive car hire location map to find the best car hire deals near you.

  • How much does a Compact car hire cost in Greensboro?

    A Compact car hire in Greensboro costs $133 per day, on average.

We reserved a truck two weeks ahead of time to help my mother move. Hertz features trucks on its website, complete with pricing. We got a confirmation email with a confirmation number. A couple of days before the rental we got another email, confirming the reservation and reminding us to pick up the truck. We got to the rental office at the appointed time and was told "We have no trucks." I showed them the reservation confirmation and the associate and another she called over both insisted they had no trucks. The pad on the counter that showed various vehicles available even featured trucks. They shrugged and said there was nothing they could do. another associate, overhearing the conversation, came over and said "Let me see what I can do." He began calling other hertz locations in the area and finally found one 30 miles away that had just had a truck returned. He asked them to hold it for us and we drove the extra 30 miles to pick it up.

Staff at Fayetteville were terrible. Greensboro staff was knowledgeable, but first car was not cleaned and ended up with electrical issues and we had to return to Greensboro. Lost over 4 hours on road to backtrack. Next car was also not sealed after sanitizing and was 1,400 miles and 5 months overdue for oil change. THIRD car was fine. Terrible car rental experience.

Upon arrival, the 2 employees were dealing with a difficult customer, but handled it very well! One of the employees, Brandon, waited on us and was very helpful and pleasant. He went to extra mile letting me sit in a couple of vehicles to see if there were any odors that aggravated my sensitivity to smells. Which was very important to me!!

Pros:

Not much. Stood waiting at the counter while the agent was engaged in a personal conversation with someone without a mask. She could not answer questions about the drop off, and could not provide a phone number for the drop off location. Was overcharged for a full tank of gas at the dropoff location, which I will dispute. Refused a paper receipt at dropoff and was told I would get an emailed receipt. When I questioned what the charge would be for fuel, the agent said he did not know. The emailed receipt shows a charge for a full tank of gas, when the tank was over half full. That charge will be disputed. I will try to avoid Thrifty in the future.

Cons:

More attentive staff, provided with better information.

I had a reservations and was told by Juan that the inventory is not updated on the website and they had no cars available. He lacked customer interpersonal skills and was not very welcoming to myself or other customers. Perhaps training is needed considering working with the public. Customer service goes a long way. As a result, I rented with Alamo.

Dollar rental has a policy where they do a credit check just for a rental, I’ve rented plenty of vehicles before from rental places and was never asked to do a credit check. This policy needs to be updated on third-party sites as well to inform customers in the future.

The Dollar scanner wasn’t working properly and didn’t recognize my NYS drivers license and they weren’t able to issue me a car…though I had just travelled from LGA where they had successfully scanned it. There was no back-up plan. The people were fine but couldn’t accommodate me so we had someone else in our party be the driver. A very upsetting and sub-par experience. I won’t rent from Dollar again.
