Renault TWINGO II 2014

Eric and Valerie have made it impossible for me to ever rent from one of the big international car rental companies again. This was my third rental with them and they are everything the big guys are not. They are friendly, efficient, customer focused are most importantly really easy to deal with. Their cars are great as well.

The host, the car, and the whole Turo experience was 10/10. The price was fantastic and the whole experience was seamless. We had weird hours we wanted to leave and return the car that would not have worked with a car rental agency, but Angel and Turo made the whole process easy and seamless. I’m a bigger guy so I was worried about how comfortable the car would be and it was perfect. The great ride made our whole vacation possible and comfortable. I really appreciated the vehicles safety features too!

Nissan Altima 2025

The Nissan Altima was great. Good mpg, clean, lots of power, great response time. The car needed to be picked up at an off site location called, economy car rental at 2367 India street. A proximity 2 1/2 miles from the airport. You will need to find a ride to their location. The price of taxi will be $30, however we took the free shuttle to the car rental center then walked 20 minutes the rest of the way. The team at this location did a great job, fast, friendly, polite, and after returning they able to offer a ride back to the airport. We would rent this Altima again, and I would recommend this vehicle.

Easy pick up and drop off. Car was very clean inside. A/C blows super cold even when it's 100 degrees out!! The windows are not tinted so I suggest bringing your own sun shades if you are going to be parked anywhere but the shade in the summer. Luckily I had those and that made my trip much better. The flip down visors do have the extenders to help block sun while driving thankfully. Charging prices are comparable to current gas prices - about $45 to get 250 miles of charge over a few sessions which is the same as I get from a full tank in my Toyota Yaris. This car DOES have the CHAdeMO fast charge input so it's 30-50 seconds per mile to charge depending on the fast charger & whether you're running the car (AC/radio) or it's fully off. Radio speakers were a little blown out so I had to adjust some settings to listen to my audiobooks but it was easy to do. I had no problem driving from the pickup spot to Kyle, then to the airport, and back into town without needing a charge which was about 90 miles, mostly highway. Just like any Turo rental make sure to take your own photos at pickup and drop off since scratches and such aren't usually documented after every drive by the car owners which seems standard in my experience. Overall a great deal, best price in town especially for a last minute rental. I requested the rental at 9pm on a Tuesday after my personal car died and was able to get this the next morning with no issue. Will definitely keep them in mind when I need a rental near by. Thanks again!

Rented this last minute because my Mom didn't tell me until the day before my trip that she had no car. Was pretty easy for the most part. Finding the shuttle at the airport for the car rental area, was a little difficult for me. But you can always ask someone at the airport. Then I followed Turo given directions to the car. It's outside of the rental area but still easy to find because the lot is literally labeled "Turo." As for the car, I DID NOT MIND these "problems" with the car at all, but you should be informed that the car: Cons - Smelled INTENSELY LIKE WEED. I tried to spray it with multiple Febreze, etc. It helped but it still stinks a bit. - The car door lock was extremely finicky, you must PRESS AND HOLD the button it seems. - Crumbs in the backseat (no big deal) - Not sure but seems like occasional light scraping sound sometimes when driving around on normal road. - Not a problem per se, but just know the car has quite a bit of scratches compared to other Turo rentals. Just be sure to document as much as you can. Pros - Good Value for the price - ICE COLD A/C. (Although I visited in winter, so idk how it holds up to the Vegas heat, but again better than my childhood cars with zero A/C) - Pretty quiet car overall (I mention the scrape for the owner to consider getting it checked out, but nothing to make you feel embarrassed while driving.) Overall, I grew up poor, and this car was much better than most of the ones of my childhood, so I didn't mind at all. Just tried my best to document them that's all. But anyone renting who these things might bother should be aware of it. Anyways, thank you so much Nick!!! I would definitely rent again!

Subaru Outback 2013

Andre was great, the car was somewhat still dirty, dust, dirt, what appeared to be cigarette ashes, animal hair, sticky spills around the cup holders in the center console and the door panels. Crumbs and dust/dirt left in the door handles and cubby's. In the center console cup holders and cubbys. On the top of the dashboard, around the steering column and gauges. Sticky dusty windows and stereo buttons. Rear view mirror had sticky smudges on it. All the windows inside were dusty and dirty with smudges and idk what really.. the car had a bad smell of animals like dogs, and faint cigarette smell.. however as I got further into my trip I got used to it and wasn't bothered by it anymore. A lot of these issues honestly didn't bother me very much. I was more worried of being blamed for them when I returned the car. Unfortunately I was put behind schedule due to a passenger side headlight and passenger side tail light being burned out. However upon informing andre, he was very quick with a solution to take the car to valvoline where they were able to repair the lights before I left for my trip. If I wasn't already running late It wouldn't of bothered me. Andre was also very quick to reimburse me the whole price of the repairs immediately upon me sending him the receipt of the work.. I very much appreciated that! I also appreciate that instead of canceling my trip Andre worked out a way to have the lights fixed with no trouble of my own. He was always quick to respond to all of my very long messages full of questions. This is my first time using turo and I did not know the ins and outs of the rental process. He was able to guide me threw every step all while being polite and keeping his patience with me! Hah. I ended up running behind schedule on my way back as well and was surprised how simple and easy it was to change the return time from noon to after 9 p.m. all without adding any fees to my bill! That was very helpful of andre to allow me to do. I also ended up being a little passed my return time due to vacuuming the car and dusting everything to my best ability. So that andre wouldn't have to deal with someone else's mess and the next person who rents the vehicle will not have to worry about it either. I had no issues with doing that for him after he was so helpful with me! The vehicle was a little different then what im used to. But in no time I settled in with the car and had a very enjoyable trip! I would forsure rent another vehicle from andre in the future due to how well he accommodated me on this trip. Even tho the car had the mess, that was not andre, But left over from previous renters. He even made sure to have a snow brush and ice scraper in the car for me. But unfortunately the previous renters also took that with them. Im sure there will be a new one for the next person who rents the car because thats how much andre cares about his customers !! 5 stars for andre !!! Whoever returned his vehicle like that should be ashamed and think about how it would feel if someone treated your things the same way! Once again THANK YOU andre! I will reach out to you next time I need to rent a car.. I appreciate all your help thru the process! I appreciate your professionalism and quick responses to all my questions and thank you for making sure the vehicle was 100% good to go for me before I left and wouldn't of been able to fix it. 5 of 5 stars for andre !!

My credit card wasn’t working for some odd reason and rental companies wouldn’t let me rent a car so I booked this Turo last minute and it was a reasonable price for five days. I will do it again when I come back to Vancouver in August.

Excellent 1st experience using Turo. The host was very responsive and timely. The vehicle was in great condition and rode very well. The price was a good deal and would definitely use this again as opposed to a major car rental facility. It was a simple process overall and very straightforward.

The host, Tadeh was exceptional. The very best in customer service. I had the best experience with renting from Tadeh. Everything was so easy; Tadeh was super accommodating, very kind, he went way above and beyond what I reasonably expected. Tadeh is a thousand times better than AVIS, HERTZ, Enterprise, Thrifty, Budget, Dollar, and all the major car rental. Tadeh gave me the best deal; the major car rentals do not come close; I saved a lot of money. The car was great, very good on the gas mileage; and very clean. Tadeh made sure pick-up location was very convenient for me, Tadeh drove the car to where I was; it’s the best. Tadeh also picked up the car when I was done and again made sure it was convenient for me. I am very grateful for this. Once I return from my deployment, absolutely renting from Tadeh again; will be telling all my friends and colleagues. This is just amazing customer service. I am very appreciative for everything. THANK YOU

Toyota Corolla Hybrid 2026

“10/10 experience. I rented the car for a week and the total came out to around $400, which was an amazing price for a brand new 2026 vehicle. The entire process was incredibly easy from start to finish. Pickup and drop-off were smooth and convenient, and I loved that I didn’t have to physically meet or talk to anyone. The key was waiting in a lockbox by the window, which honestly made the experience even better for me. The car itself was spotless, smelled clean, and drove perfectly. It was also amazing on gas — I drove all the way through Saturday and the tank was only halfway. The host responded quickly to messages and was super helpful the entire time. Overall, this was one of the easiest and best rental experiences I’ve had. I would absolutely rent from them again and honestly would choose this over Enterprise or Hertz any day

Picking up at MKE

Purple squiggle

Pickup & return areas at MKE 

For a quick and easy car rental experience at Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport, use any of the airport’s parking facilities. For in-person handoffs, the Surface Lot is the go-to spot, and the first 30 minutes are free. Renting on Turo allows you to breeze through baggage claim, head straight to the terminal parking and get on the road sooner.

Communicate with your host

After booking your ideal car on Turo, you can message your host directly through the Turo app with any questions — whether it’s about the rental vehicle, pickup details, or what’s covered in their rental contract. Your host will message you directly via the Turo app with the location of your parked car. Don’t forget to do the same when it’s time to return the vehicle.

Parking & airport fees

Heads up: MKE requires Turo to collect an airport fee that allows them to deliver vehicles directly to the airport. Turo doesn't set this fee, mark it up or retain any portion of it. If your host needs you to cover the costs of parking at the airport, this information will be clearly disclosed on the vehicle listing for full transparency.

Why rent a car at the airport on Turo?

" "

Contactless check-in and checkout

Many hosts offer contactless check-in and checkout, if their car has remote access technology, allowing you to find the car, unlock it, and be on your way without meeting them in person. Message your host for specific instructions.

Convenient airport car rental pickup and return

Rather than hustling at the busy terminal curbside, take your time picking up the rental car at approved parking lots or garages. Check in, load up your luggage, and get comfortable with the car without a big rush.

Top tips for renting a car in Milwaukee


Whether you’re picking up your car at the airport or from downtown Milwaukee, a rental car is one of the best ways to explore the area and beyond. Here’s how to get road-ready and maximize your time when driving a rental car in Milwaukee.


How does airport pickup work at Milwaukee International Airport? 


Picking up your rental car from Milwaukee Airport is quick and easy. You'll find the parking spot location on the Turo app. Once you land, simply exit baggage claim, head to the parking area, and find your car. Inside, you’ll find a ticket to exit the lot and you’re good to go. For in-person handoffs, meet your host in the Surface Lot and use Location Sharing on the app to save time.


How does drop-off work at Milwaukee International Airport? 


When returning your car rental, head back to the airport parking lot no earlier than four hours before your trip ends, or as allowed by the permit.


Leave the parking ticket in the vehicle and message your host via the app with the location, including the section and stall numbers. Be sure to lock the car and place the keys in the lockbox.


If you're dropping off your car rental in person, head to the Surface Lot, stay with your car until your host arrives, hand over the keys, and you're all set.


How far is Milwaukee International Airport from Downtown Milwaukee? 


Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport is about 6 miles south of downtown, making it a quick 10-minute drive.


What are the road rules and driving conditions in Milwaukee?


In Milwaukee, always buckle up, have your driver’s license handy, and follow the usual US traffic light rules.


Keep an eye out for high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes marked with a white diamond sign. Some will have a number like HOV4, which indicates how many people need to be in the car to use the lane.


When driving, always yield to pedestrians at crosswalks, cyclists in bike lanes, and cars that arrive at a four-way stop before you. If you get there at the same time as another car, give way to the one on your right.


Leave 20 feet of space for school buses that are loading or unloading, or when their lights are flashing. And if driving past a public or private school, slow down to 15 mph.


A few more speed limits to note:


- Within city limits: 35 mph


- Highways outside city limits: 55 mph


- Interstates, freeways, and expressways: 65 mph


What is parking like in Milwaukee?


Parking in Milwaukee is easy to navigate, with metered street parking, parking garages, and some free options available, making renting a car hassle-free. Street parking is usually metered from 6 AM to 9 PM, while parking lots are available in certain areas. Be sure to check posted signs for time restrictions.


You can also park at Lakeshore State Park, which offers free parking and scenic views, or near Bradford Beach, which is generally accessible, especially on weekdays. The main parking lot at 2400 N Lincoln Memorial Dr has 200 spaces and is free from 6 AM to 9 PM.


Are there toll roads in Milwaukee?


None — so there is no need to pay tolls electronically unless heading beyond Wisconsin.


Where can I find gas stations and EV chargers in Milwaukee?


Milwaukee has plenty of gas stations in convenient locations throughout the city. Local fuel prices fluctuate, so keep an eye out for competing prices once you're on the road. With over 100 EV charging ports, many of which are free, these are also easy to come by.


A few spots to park and charge your electric rental car include:


- ChargePoint at Schlitz Park – 1555 N River Center Dr


- ChargePoint at 833 E Michigan St – Downtown Milwaukee


Do I need to rent a car in Milwaukee?


Milwaukee’s downtown is walkable and well-covered by The Hop streetcar and local buses, but if you're planning to bounce between beaches, parks, and neighborhoods, public transport can fall short. Renting a car gives you the freedom to cruise at your own pace, carry your personal belongings with ease — especially handy for families — and make the most of every stop along the way.


What rental car types can I find on Turo in Milwaukee?


You’ll find plenty of rental car options on Turo to match your style, budget, and plans - from SUVs to compact cars to luxury vehicles and beyond.


Zipping around the city? Go for something compact like a Buick Encore, or opt for a hybrid like the BMW i3. Hitting the great outdoors? Strap your gear to the roof of a rugged Toyota 4Runner. Cruising lakeside? Drop the top in a sleek BMW 4 Series. And if you’re after serious style or muscle, there’s always a bold yellow Chevrolet Corvette or the powerhouse GMC Hummer. This is only a summary of the many rental car types available on Turo, so hit the search bar to find exactly what you're looking for.


How much does it cost to rent a car in Milwaukee? 


The cost of car rental in Milwaukee can vary depending on car type, booking length, extras, and delivery. For cheap car rentals in Milwaukee, look out for discounts on longer-duration bookings and early bookings.

We encourage you to request to add additional drivers before your trip starts, though guests can request to add a driver while a trip is in progress.

To speed up the process, have your additional driver create a Turo account and get approved to drive before you request to add them. All drivers must have a valid driver’s license and meet the age requirements for the car you’ve booked. You can request to add drivers via the “Trips” tab in the Turo app without additional driver charges or extra costs.

At which airports can I pick up my car on Turo?

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. Liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.

For questions or information about the third party liability insurance that is included in protection plans, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site.

When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but Turo’s insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
