I wasn't able to pick up the car because it looked like they had run out. Stood in line for three hours and maybe 10 people in the main line up were given cars. It looked like they were giving cars as people brought them back since people would wait for up to 30 minutes with an agent before getting keys. Pretty brutal so I just left and borrowed a friends car thankfully but now its very difficult to get my money back...Reviewed 2024 Jul 16

The wait for the car was 30 minutes. There were three employees working at one point and one employee disappeared into the office never to be seen again. Keys to the car were given to me and we had to walk to the garage and find our car. The car was covered in pollen and dirt on the outside. Inside was okay. No walk through and I had to take pictures of various dings, scratches, and a crack in the windshield for my benefit if Avis tries to come at me for this damage.Reviewed 2024 Jun 13

Pros:We rented a convertible for my son's graduation since it was a drive through due to covid. And we're going to cruise around town and just enjoy the day. I rented the convertible weeks before. We get there the day of graduation and the gal proceeds to tell us there are NONE avaliable. I was so upset for him since this end of the school year was such a bummer. It was just a huge let down.Reviewed 2020 Jun 20

Top tips for renting a car from Avis in Reno

  • When you book a rental car through Avis car rentals in Reno, Nevada, remember that you must have a valid driver’s license and be at least 21 years old to rent a vehicle. However, it’s important to note that if you’re between the ages of 21-24, you may incur young driver fees and be limited on the type of vehicle you can drive. If you want to save on cost, ensure your driver is 25 or older and has a personal insurance policy.
  • If you want to cross state lines into California or visit any other nearby popular attractions, you’ll have no problem doing so when booking a rental through Avis car rentals in Reno. It’s perfectly legal to drive a rental car across state lines, and since California has the same minimum rental age of 21, you’ll have no problem with breaking any laws there, either.
  • When considering the kind of vehicle you’ll want to rent when booking your car through Avis car rentals in Reno, remember the distance you’ll have to drive and the cost of gas. For example, the popular city of Las Vegas is about seven hours away, which can add up fuel costs. You may consider an economy or compact car with better gas mileage, especially considering that Nevada has some of the highest-priced gas in the US. Fuel costs can add up even if you’re driving to relatively nearby cities like Sacramento, San Francisco, and San Jose.
  • You won’t need to worry about customer service when booking through Avis car rentals in Reno. You can call a toll-free number through their customer service portal for assistance. Still, you can also access several other helpful options, such as requesting a past rental agreement, requesting miles or points, filling out a claims/accident form, accessing disability services, getting help with a lost item, and more.
  • Full-size rental cars from Avis in Reno are around 4% cheaper than other car types, on average.
