Top tips for renting a car in Duluth


Whether you're driving your rental car down Interstate 85 or taking the more scenic Medlock Bridge Road to reach your destination, renting a vehicle on Turo allows you to determine how you navigate the streets in and around Duluth. Before you start your journey, consider these rental car tips.


What are the road rules and driving conditions in Duluth?


Driving in Duluth is a breeze if you follow the rules of the road and drive slowly during rush hour. Even though the downtown area can get busy during an event or at certain times of the day, the rest of Duluth is simple to navigate. While the city can get some heavy rain throughout the year, it rarely snows. The rainy season typically runs from June to August, which is when an SUV like the Ford Escape or Honda Pilot might serve you well.


Depending on where you're driving in Duluth, the minimum speed limit in urban areas varies from 25-30 mph. Outside urban and residential areas, speed limits range from 55-75 mph. When driving the Peachtree Industrial Blvd, the maximum speed can oscillate between 45-55 mph.


What is parking like in Duluth?


Drivers have ample parking options throughout Duluth, including the downtown area. For example, parking in Downtown Duluth is free in numerous parking lots as well as a public parking deck along Ridgeway Rd. If you're traveling to the Gas South Arena for an event, event rates begin two hours before that day's event starts, and fees vary by event. Outside of the downtown area, free street parking is widely available.


Are there toll roads in Duluth?


Whether you're driving a BMW X1 or a Buick Encore, Georgia doesn't have traditional toll roads that you're required to travel through. However, the state offers Georgia Express Lanes, which are optional lanes that allow you to bypass congestion on certain roads if you pay a toll. If you choose to drive to Atlanta on the I-85, you might come across express lanes during a stretch of your journey. You can drive these lanes with the Peach Pass.


Are there gas stations and EV chargers in Duluth?


Gas stations and EV chargers are plentiful in Duluth, allowing you to travel through the city in your preferred car rental. The downtown area is serviced by popular gas stations like RaceTrac, Shell, and QuikTrip. If you're taking I-85 to Atlanta, you'll also discover a Costco station just off the highway at Pleasant Hill Road.


If you've booked a Tesla Model 3 or similar electric vehicle, Duluth offers more than 150 public charging station ports, a selection of which accommodate DC fast charging. The main networks in the area include ChargePoint, Blink, and Tesla.


Do I need to rent a car in Duluth?


Getting around Duluth efficiently requires a vehicle. While public transportation is available via Gwinnett County Transit buses, it's a highly limited option with only a few routes. Downtown Duluth is somewhat walkable. However, having a rental vehicle ensures you can reach any destination in the city without navigating busy sidewalks or taking a taxi.

You can request to add drivers via the “Trips” tab in the Turo app without additional driver charges or extra costs.
