KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Portland

  • Portland, Oregon is the ideal location to take advantage of the wondrous landscapes and climate that the northwestern United States has to offer. Renting a car will give you the unrivaled opportunity to explore Mount Hood National Forest, Columbia River and Gorge, Forest Park, and Blue Lake Regional Park. These regions are virtually inaccessible via public transport, and having a car will mean that you can drive directly to a gateway of fishing, hiking, bike riding, and scenic opportunities.
  • Picking up your hire car at Portland International Airport is a quick and simple process. Proceed to the baggage claim area and walk directly across the road to the first level of the parking garage. Here, you will find many major car hire companies to choose from, such as Enterprise, Dollar, Payless, and Alamo. The distance from Portland International Airport to downtown is 9 miles; the quickest route is to take the Banfield Expressway (I-84), which will get you there in approximately 30 minutes.
  • Portland’s beautiful weather encourages plenty of cyclists to get out on the roads and that means it’s important to be careful when driving your hire car. Be mindful of green bike boxes at intersections across the city, as these provide a safe space for cyclists to stop. It is illegal to turn right on a red light if there is a green bike box at the intersection. When driving in the downtown district, keep in mind that there are a lot of one-way streets, so it is best to use a navigational tool and to pre-plan your driving route.
  • Due to the surrounding wilderness and national parks, Portland is prone to wildfires, such as the Eagle Creek Fire of 2017. Be sure to check the local weather conditions and that all roads and highways on your route are open and safe to access. Especially in the warm and dry summer months, regularly pay attention to weather warnings, as conditions can change quickly.
  • 25% of our users found a car hire in Portland for €51 or less
  • Book your car hire in Portland at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Compact hire cars in Portland are around 30% cheaper than other car types, on average

Insights shared by verified travellers who hired a car in Portland 
Verified travelerJun 2024
As with most cities a lot of airport fees and taxes can be avoided by renting at a local location away from the airport.
Verified travelerJul 2024
First check with rental agency that they have vehicles available and only then make a reservation
MikeMar 2024
Make sure that you are renting at the airport. If you rent from a location away from the airport, you will need to provide your own transportation to get your car. Also, pay attention to the hours at the specific location where you rent from, to make sure your pick-up and drop-off times will work.
Verified travelerApr 2024
At first, I thought I would use my own insurance coverage, but I ended up purchasing additional insurance for my own piece of mind which I’m not so pleased with that otherwise it’s all good.
Verified travelerMay 2024
Make sure you take your time. And do a complete inspection of the vehicle yourself.

Driving in Portland is easy

We were in the Welches about an hour out of Portland so no traffic or parking issues, which was good since we had managers special of a pickup truck.
Verified travelerSep 2023
Allow extra time to get to airport if coming from the coast as the highway cuts through the city and there’s lots of congestion as multiple lanes converge.
Verified travelerOct 2023
Pick up Luggage after you get the car and drop it off before you take car back.Airport is too far to lug everything back and forth.

There should be maps available in the car for not so uncommon case of navigation system failure.

We rented at PDX and easily found our way down to Silverton where we were staying. It was so handy to pickup and drop off the car right in the PDX terminal
Verified travelerJun 2023
Save 10%-17% by renting outside of the airport. Choose a non-budget rental company like Hertz and you'll probably pay less in the long run.
Verified travelerAug 2023
Easy to get around. Great rental set up at PDX.
StellaAug 2023
Rent from this location. Easy. Friendly, decently priced.
HubertJul 2023
Check the office closure times and assume they close 15 minutes prior to that. Overbooked your days needed and turn in the car when you are done. Gas in Idaho is way cheaper then Portland, if making that road trip, don't buy the fuel package.
Verified travelerJun 2023
Avoid Thrifty because you can't know for sure if the slow agent will be working and sucking up your time. Outside of the rental center experience, the car was great and a good value.
Verified travelerAug 2023
If you need a reasonably priced car to get you around Avis is a decent bet. Don’t expect to live in the lap of luxury though.
CarrieAug 2023
Just know it’s a long walk out to the rental car area and a long walk back when you drop it off.
Verified travelerJun 2023
Gas is pumped by an attendant; you do not independently pump gas in OR;
AliceAug 2023
Make sure maintenance and generally cleaning has been done before leaving the rental facility.
Verified travelerJul 2023
Be careful driving during peak hours.
ErwinAug 2023
Pay the extra to rent from the Enterprise companies. Don’t rent from Hertz.

Pay the extra to rent from Enterprise companies. Don’t rent from Hertz.

Keep left as you're driving towards the airport to go to rental returns.

A Rav 4 or smaller is perfect!

Once I got past the hard sell at the checkin/rental desk, all went well. Had a nice Camry with less than 20,000 miles. Return was easy; no issues. Would rent from Dollar at PDX again.

Line was long to pick up. Drop off was super easy. Car was somewhat clean. According to the mileage it was brand new, but did not seem brand new. Value was great and affordable. Wish I would have know it was a base model with out some of the luxuries. Will rent again just might upgrade to a model with more luxuries.

Cons:

The car they initially offered barely had room for 5 passengers and absolutely did not have room for 5 pieces of luggage. This required an upgrade at an enormous price increase. Instead of a 4 day rental, i dumped it after less than a day and found a way better deal elsewhere

I had a horrible experience at the Enterprise located in PDX airport. I would love to speak with someone about it. They ended up sending me to an offsite location who then told me they had no cars available. There was an issue accepting my debit card because I had a one way reservation. Awful customer service. Then I ended up having to pay extra for an Uber & my reservation became more expensive when they finally did find me a car at the offsite location

Pick up and drop off were quick and efficient. What could have been better was the exterior carwash and windshield cleanliness. But it is an outdoor parking lot. So it's probably difficult to keep the car exteriors clean.

I showed up with my confirmation number, and they didn't have any cars available when I arrived to pick up. There was no explanation given; they simply said sorry we are sold out, nothing we can do, and mentioned they won't have any available for the next week and a half. I had flown from the east coast to Portland with no backup options. Consequently, I found myself stranded 2 hours away from Eugene, OR, with nowhere to go or stay. I was without a place (homeless) or placeless in this case in a different city I have never visited or had plans on staying because my destination was not Portland, I was stranded with no family or friends to turn to for help.

Liked the type of car. Did NOT like the hours it took to get a satisfactory vehicle and get on our way. Seriously. Fifty or so customers standing on line for three, sometimes two Avis representatives. Avis staff upstairs where we picked up the car told us that’s the norm. After loading our luggage into the dirty, smoky vehicle, adjusting mirrors, setting up phone for GPS, etc., we noticed passenger window had. Large crack from top to bottom. Exchanged vehicle for yet another dirty, smoky vehicle, loaded, adjusted and found that dashboard display screen didn’t work. Exchanged vehicle yet again only to find the same issue with the third vehicle. Decided to suck it up and go anyway, after OVER nearly 2 HOURS.

The car was great, I think that the staff could do a lot better the inspection of the vehicles. I didn’t notice that the tires on the car were chipping off on the outside walls. I could have been in really bad accident if that particular tire had exploded on the highway.

I would like to specifically recognize the staff member who helped me at the counter in Portland, names Ilham. Inham was so friendly, kind and I felt went above and beyond to communicate clearly and honestly with me about my booking. Ilham was a bright sunny spot on what was otherwise a stressful day and I would like to say thank you for this!

PDX has rental pick ups left unmarked, leaving you guessing where to go. When you finally get to Thrifty, you then will likely have to leave your stuff and go back downstairs. They didn’t give me the car I requested, and because of it I ran out of miles before my destination. I had to stop to charge the EV - it cost me $50 to get enough juice to get me to where I was going, and then Thrifty charged me again for being undercharged. Terrible experience.

You guys at Kayak, Expedia and Hertz screwed up big time. While you showed us a confirmed reservation, upon arriving at the rental facility, Hertz staff informed us that they didn’t have any vehicles available for our rental and that Expedia and Kayak causes this issue frequently for them. We had a day planned in Portland but due to lack of rental car, we couldn’t do anything around town.

The care was banged up with dents and damage on all sides. The tire pressure warning was persistent no matter how much air I put in.. only to the recommended PSI. The car smelled like cigarettes and had burn holes in the driver seat. The rims were scrapped up very badly as well and tires had big chunks of rubber missing and or flapping around. The car was disgusting.

I searched for Portland airport and I was given a rental car 20 min off site from the airport, this caused massive problems. With getting it and dropping off. The customer service from hertz was THE WORST. I was struggling 3 or more times to call for various issues, it took more than 30 min plus to get a person on the phone each time and each time they were not helpful. My plane was delayed through no fault of my own obviously and they almost didn’t hold my rental agreement. When I asked to move the place of return (again another 30 min on hold ) I was going to be charged another $160. So even tho I got a deal through a third party, getting to and from cost me another $100 in Uber fees. Ridiculous and I have never used hertz and I won’t again

We had a reservation for a company car which showed a price under $250. Once we arrived, Hertz attempted to raise the price of that rental to 600+. In addition, the companies choice was only an electric vehicle (which is cool but that should be made known). After going back and forth, and disputing a in city fee which was just an. upcharge we were able to get the rental for around 350ish. I believe the formatting was of what we would pay was not forthcoming

After making the reservation I immediately realized the dates were wrong and that I did not specify returning the car to a different city. I took immediate action to try to modify the reservation. I found It was impossible to use kayak to modify the rental. So I’m dissatisfied with the basic service of Kayan. Next, I tried contacting Hertz directly, only to be told to use their web site over and over again. The web site was zero help, and getting a real live person to assist me was next to impossible. I decided to cancel the original booking and to try to make a new one with corrected dates and drop off point. Hertz then tripled the daily rental rate. So I went with directly booking with Avis and got a better rate, and upgrade than what Hertz was offering. Neither Kayak or Hertz have been helpful, or cost effective in this matter, and I will advise as many people as I can to not use either of your services. Since I attempted to modify my initial rental within one hour of making the reservation, but was driven to total frustration by the lack of customer service, I feel that I should not be charged for the rental cancellation. So, you folks at kayak, are you really listening?

Sixt office is small in DTP, but the mighty duo Shawn and Nate were amazing. Quite a force they are, a little wait with good concerned service is all OK. Cars were limited so I got an expensive upgrade to a BMW X5, unnamed credit card but the experience of driving to the coast and mighty Columbia was all worth it.

Pros:

Easy pickup and the service desk guy was friendly and informative about the area where we were going. They were able to get the car early as our airline had changed our arrival time at the last minute.

Cons:

We came an hour early from our pickup time and had to wait a 15 minutes or so to get the minivan as it was upstairs. The driver was not the friendliest.
