KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Fairfax
With a car rental in Fairfax, you will have many options for day trips and excursions that would be out of reach without one. Situated on the crest of the greater Washington, D.C. area, the city serves as a launching pad surrounded by a well-integrated network of major roadways. A rental offers quick access to areas like the nation’s capital, Alexandria, and Baltimore. What’s more, having a vehicle at your disposal allows you to dictate the terms of your travel. Rather than orchestrating your trip to work around the availability and schedules of public transportation, you’ll have the autonomy to determine departure and arrival times—not to mention you’ll have a place to put your shopping bags while you’re out for lunch or dinner.
There are several locations from which you can pick up your Fairfax car rental. You can find a Budget and an Avis at Fair Oaks Mall, a Hertz on Lee Jackson Memorial Hwy., and an Enterprise on Nutley St. There is also a wide range of options available to you from Dulles International Airport (IAD), including National, Dollar, Thrifty, Sixt and Alamo, to name a few. To find the rental car desks, head to the arrivals level (baggage claim level) of the main terminal and exit to ground transportation—just outside, on the far roadway, there are free shuttles that will take you to the rental car locations.
Fairfax has a fun downtown area replete with restaurants and bars, which means you will want to keep an eye out for pedestrians crossing the road in these areas. While there are designated crosswalks, people don’t always stick to these spots, so be prepared to yield, especially on the weekends.
The northern part of Virginia close to Washington, D.C., which includes Fairfax, is known for having heavier traffic. However, you can expect commute times to increase most significantly during the hours before and after the typical workday. Morning rush hour will usually start as early as about 6:30am and last until as late as 10am. In the evening, you can expect to find the roads quite congested between about 6pm and 9pm.

The staff were very friendly and accommodating but the car they had for me was way too small and definitely not in the class I rented. Hertz needs to reassess the classification given to cars that have recently gone through “updates.” A 2020 Ford Escape is NOT the same as a 2015 Ford Escape.

Hertz called me 9 hours before I was supposed to pick up my car to tell me they had overbooked by 200 cars and were unable to honor my reservation. There was no attempt by Hertz to resolve the huge problem they had just created for me, I was on my own. Fortunately, their competitor Avis took a same day reservation and provided me with a car that afternoon.
