A rented car is most convenient for travelling the area of Salt Lake City, as there are many wonderful places nearby to explore. The airport is located to the northwest of the city, nearby the Interstate 15 that heads north to Layton, Ogden and Brigham City, as well as Logan. To the south of the airport is also the Interstate 80, heading west to the Bonneville Salt Flats State Park. The Interstate 15 heads south as well towards the Utah Lake, and areas such as Sandy, Orem and Provo. The Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest is east of Provo and Springville. There are also many wonderful and famous ski resorts in the area, and a number of world-famous golf courses that are enjoyed, such as the Alpine courses in the nearby Wasatch Mountains.

Driving in Salt Lake City is easy as well, especially with the grid-like pattern of the roads in the city centre. A number of parking lots are found which offer reasonable prices, and street parking is also available sometimes. Keep in mind that mall parking spaces are more expensive. Motorists who would like to make use of the city’s public transportation services at times will find over ten park and ride lots at the city’s main light rail stations.

Dollar is a car hire company that is popular amongst leisure and business travellers, and has rental locations in many countries of the world. Their many years of experience in the industry allow them to offer their customers very competitive car rental rates, unique services and a wide range of high quality vehicles.

Members of the program receive VIP treatment at dedicated rental counters, and will be able to reserve, rent and return vehicles in the quickest ways possible. Free rental days can even be earned with the Dollar Express Renter Rewards program. Instead of earning airline frequent flyer miles, customers can receive free days of car rental.

A number of services are in place for corporate clients as well, such as the Multi-Month Rental program, whereby vehicles can be hired for longer periods (up to eleven consecutive months). This service is available to persons with a corporate account at Dollar, and is simple to arrange via a special 800#. Customers will also not need to return the vehicle until the rental is complete, and charges for the rental are automatically billed to the customer’s credit card or Dollar billing account each month.

The Salt Lake City International Airport car hire companies are found on the lower level of the parking garage, which is accessible from both of the airport’s terminal buildings. Some are open twenty-four hours a day and seven days a week, however, Dollar’s hours of operation are from 12:00am to 01:30am on Mondays, Tuesdays and Saturdays, and from 05:30am to 12:00am on Wednesdays and Thursdays. On Fridays and Sundays Dollar is open from 05:00am to 12:00am. Although cars may be hired over the rental counters, an online and advanced reservation is recommended.

Advanced reservations are also advised if additional items of equipment are required, such as child seats or satellite navigation systems, and from Dollar, hand controls for disabled drivers need an earlier booking as they are only used on certain types of automatic vehicles. They will also need to be fitted to the vehicle prior to your arrival at Salt Lake City International Airport. Hand control equipment is available only to persons with a lower limb disability, and is free of charge. The device operates the brake and accelerator pedals of the rented car. From Salt Lake City International Airport, one way hires may be possible to arrange as well, and are convenient for many travellers. Dollar’s one way hire services may even be free of charge, but this will need to be confirmed by the customer. It could depend on the length of the rental period and the return location chosen for the vehicle.

An excellent selection of vehicles are available from all the Salt Lake City International Airport car rental companies, and especially from Dollar. Economy cars are similar to the Kia Rio, Compact cars are similar to the Hyundai Elantra and Midsize cars are similar to the Kia Optima. Larger cars include the Chevrolet Impala, Toyota Camry, Dodge Caravan, Ford Escape, Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, Ford Expedition and the Chevrolet Suburban. The larger SUVs seat seven people. Dollar also has a special category available, referred to as the ‘Lock Low and Go’ class. Customers choosing this category will receive a Compact or larger vehicle, but pay only Compact vehicle rates. A minivan or SUV could therefore be received at a much lower than usual price.
