If flying into Midway airport, you have to take a shuttle to the car rental location about 5 minutes away. Shuttles run 24/7. The car rentals are all in one place so when you arrive it’s pretty easy to navigate. But good to plan extra time for drop off and pick up.

Advice for renting a car in Chicago: (1) If you don’t need a rental, don’t get one. The best experience and cheapest is to use public transport. Also, drivers and buses in Chicago are a bit crazy, especially if you will be in the downtown area. Lastly, the cost to park on any street or lot will add another expense (~$8/per hour on street or $12/hr in a lot). (2) If you do rent a car, smaller cars make work better when it comes to parking. Downtown area (anything that’s not the suburbs) will be street parking or tight parking lots. Also, I only saw charge-up stations (for electric cars) in parking lots, not on the streets. (3) Unless you are a speed racer, I advise to avoid LakeShore Drive at night, on the weekends. There are changes of drag racing. (4) Buses will always jump out into the street. The buses will block intersections and jump into the streets with no-signals. So, if you are next to or behind a bus, wait till they pass. (5) Prepay for lots on SpotHero or another parking apps. Paying through these apps will save you almost $5 extra, per hour & it will secure you a spot.

KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Chicago
Are you looking to make the most of your time in Chicago? Renting a car from the airport will allow you to be efficient and drive directly to the doorstep of your destination. With a car you will also have access to the glorious Lake Michigan, the fifth largest lake in the world, with its expanse of beaches and great fishing opportunities. If you are planning to visit the famous Brookfield Zoo, having a car will save you plenty of time and hassle as it is located 13 miles from downtown Chicago.
A shuttle bus takes you directly from any of O’Hare International Airport’s 3 terminals to the Car hire Facility, where major hire companies such as Avis, Enterprise, Thrifty, and Budget have counters. O’Hare International Airport is located 18 miles from downtown Chicago and the drive will take approximately 30 minutes.
When driving around Chicago keep in mind that it is a sport loving town and you will notice the effect this has on road traffic when the White Sox, Cubs, or Bulls play a game. Wrigley Field, Guaranteed Rate Field, and United Center are all located in close proximity to downtown Chicago, so be vigilant and check whether these teams are playing -- and plan an alternative route if necessary to avoid these stadiums during big events.
Much like other major cities throughout America, rush hour means there will be a lot of congestion on the roads between 7 am and 9 am and 4 pm and 6 pm on weekdays. Being mindful of the increased amount of cars and cyclists on the road is crucial. Keep in mind that it is legal to turn right on a red light unless otherwise indicated.

FAQs about hiring a car in Chicago
What type of car is recommended for driving in Chicago?
A small compact car such as a Mitsubishi Mirage is ideal for Chicago to help navigate rush hour traffic as well as the narrow streets and street side parking downtown. Choose a car in which you feel comfortable checking the blind spots, as there are plenty of bike lanes and cyclists on Chicago roads. If you are traveling with others and plan to have a mix of inner city life and coastal exploration, try the comfort and security of a Nissan Rogue SUV.
What’s the speed limit in Chicago?
Standard residential areas have a speed limit of 30 miles per hour, while non-urban areas have a speed limit of 55 miles per hour. If you venture outside of Chicago and use an Illinois highway to access Lake Michigan or a nearby town, the speed limit will be either 65 or 70 miles per hour.
Where are the best places to park in Chicago?
Street parking in downtown Chicago can be tricky and expensive, so, to save money and hassle, look into the option of using a parking garage. Alternatively, the Metra train system is expansive and an easy way to travel across the city. Find more accessible parking near a Metra station and leave your hire car there while you explore downtown via public transport.

I confirmed a rental of a standard size suv and a pickup time. When I arrived to pick up the car, I was told fhere were no suvs and no gas cars. (I could wait 7-8 hours to see if any come in.) Mine was a one-way rental to drive my elderly parents - road trip. I had never driven an electric car and had no warning to plan charging stops on my route. This felt like a bait and switch and is unacceptable.
What a surprisingly pleasant experience. The agents were thoughtful and helpful, the (upgraded) car was immaculate, and the return was about as easy as it gets. I’ll definitely rent from Fox in Chicago again.

We rented from chicago airport agreeing to return at Milwaukee. I explicitly asked the staff to confirm the return location at Milwaukee will be open at 4-5pm. Then I was surprised, the location was closed and no instructions for overnight return, no one answering calls at Hertz. I ended up returning at the next closest location which is the Milwaukee airport. Then I get a surprise bill of $450 instead of the negotiated rate of $160 on July 6. I am working to charge back that transaction with the credit card company. Hertz doesn't answer customer service calls anyway.

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.

Not satisfactory experience . ( pretty sure that this review will go into a void) Cars were overbooked. The online reservations did not match the actual vehicle inventory. I was in line for over an hour to be seen. I rented an intermediate SUV, but they only had large pickup trucks. I took the offer. The check- in staff was professional and friendly given the circumstances. They provided a fuel credit due to the inconvenience. The pickup was too big for my needs. Difficult to maneuver. Many of the features that should be available on a large vehicle were not equipped or programmed, especially the parking technology. My car lacked wrap- around cameras to assist parking, proximity warnings when close to objects, or back up warnings. The back- up camera was imprecise. I had no functional trunk. My drop-off experience was poor. It was Easy to drop off. One agent was friendly and helpful. The other public- facing agents were uncaring or rude. My agent barely spoke to me and didn't ask basic questions about returning the vehicle. Offered no assistance. I also had bad experience with staff in preferred member area. Five minutes after returning car, I realized that I had missing items. The friendly return agent directed me to the desk agent. The desk agent was openly dismissive and rude to me . Suggested that that my reason for checking the car was not important. She was dismissive and didn't want to offer help. This is not an exaggeration. This experience makes me less likely to rent a vehicle from this vendor at that location.

I was overall not impressed. The car I received had gum stuck to the center console which was gross. After I returned the car, I received a call saying that there’s a “large crack that goes halfway across the windshield.” When I asked again how large the crack was because I didn’t see a crack while driving, the agent said the crack was barely visible. I explained that I did not notice a crack nor did it happen while I was driving. When I dropped the car off at 4:30 PM, the rental place was closed. I truly believe this crack either happened with the last driver and I was not informed about it when I picked the car up. Or it happened after I dropped it off. Despite this, the agent said I’m responsible for it and will need to cover the cost. Very unhappy about that.

First I think is very bad that if you as a company charge for the extra driver,you should say it,is first time for me with this situation with a car rental,that being said I paid the extra driver and the person who I spoke told me the final charges that I would have,and for my surprise I have more charges in my card, I ended up paying 300 dollars more than the 500 dollars of the original charge,I received a late fee,I don't even know why,if I deliver the car at the rigth time,and I only wanted to pay for the daily tools, wich on top on everything I end up paying a tool in Chicago because the car didn't pass,I'm very disappointed and I don't think I'll use fox rental anymore.

Payless had a very smooth process with kind and friendly people, the car was very clean and in great condition. When I returned it, however, the person who marked the car as returned did not check whether I had filled the car up with gas (I had filled the car up with gas) and charged me for not doing it. The customer service team has been very helpful in getting that false charge removed. Would recommend Payless

1444 travellers who hired a car in Chicago gave the car agency they used an average rating of 5.1
Some Chicago car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend always be aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Chicago.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a no-deductible option to your Chicago car hire.
