KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Rolling Meadows

  • Car rentals in Rolling Meadows, IL, provide the convenience of having access to a vehicle without the responsibilities of ownership. You can pick up a rental car when needed and return it when you're done, eliminating the need for maintenance and insurance. Also, some areas in Rolling Meadows and the surrounding suburbs may not have extensive public transportation options. A rental car can access remote or less-frequented destinations like Chicago Botanic Garden, Ned Brown Preserve, and Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum. Most importantly, for business travelers, having a rental car can be essential for getting to meetings, appointments, and various locations on time and easily.
  • Suppose you intend to arrive in Rolling Meadows by air. In that case, remember that Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD) and Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW) are the area's two most popular arrival stations.

Pros:

Customer service at Palatine location was excellent!

Cons:

The car I requested was not available. My rate was adjusted and the team member and I found a car together that worked for me. No complaints, but it would’ve been nice to have the SUV. The car also had a distinct smell as if the previous renter had smoked A LOT of cigarettes inside of it. It was not unbearable, but I got out of the car smelling like the cigarettes. In retrospect, I would’ve found a vehicle without the smell.
