Kia Optima Hybrid 2019

Probably one of the easiest and best experiences ever. Not only was communication above and beyond but the car was in great condition and being a hybrid was great on gas mileage. We had to extend and it was a seamless process. We had it dropped off and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. 10/10 would recommend car to anyone.

Toyota Prius Prime 2018

This was the perfect solution for a long-distance trip. Our 1st time trying Turo.com and 1st time using hybrid vehicle. We didn't know all the fuel saving settings, but we averaged 52 miles/gal! Drivers seat molds to your back, and that adjustable lumbar support makes a huge difference on a road trip. Another critical feature is the intuitive cruise control. It automatically adjusts speed when someone cuts into your lane, and when that car leaves your lane it waits for a bit to see if someone else is going to cut into your lane, then it resumes your cruising speed. This was an extremely helpful feature in Bay area California traffic. Customer service was excellent. We had a travel delay arriving to get the car, and they kept our reservation. Highly recommend!

Things to do and places to see in Puyallup, WA

While Puyallup is famous for the Washington State Fair, which takes place every year in September, there's a lot more to the city than carnival rides. From beautiful parks to eclectic shops, this city blends nature and small-town warmth. Here are some Puyallup locations to visit while you're in town.

Rent the perfect car
Puyallup, WA

Mount Rainier

To truly experience the Pacific Northwest beauty, you can't skip the giant in Puyallup's backyard: Mount Rainier. This icon rises to 14,410 feet above sea level and is visible from just about everywhere you look. If you're heading up to Mount Rainier, it's a good idea to make it a full day's outing. Hike the Skyline or Pinnacle Peak trails and then hit the popular spots, like Narada Falls. Just remember to bring layers, bring a map (or get one from the Jackson Visitor Center), and charge your phone.

Bradley Lake Park

If you're looking for nearby locations in Puyallup, you don't have to drive far to immerse yourself in nature. Bradley Lake Park is a 12-acre park that has shady picnic areas, a paved walking trail around the lake, and open fields. Whether you're with family members or friends, it's a great way to spend a relaxing afternoon. And your kids can burn off energy on the playground, too. Don't expect flashy. But that's what the locals love about it. It's their go-to lake when they want a laid-back time.

Puyallup River

Want something a little wilder? The Puyallup River has mountain-fed currents, making it a fun place to go kayaking or paddle boarding. You don't have to get in the water, though. You can walk or bike along the 5-mile Puyallup Riverwalk Trail, fish for salmon on the river's edge, or just take in the scenery and listen to the sound of the rushing water. And if you're looking for a longer hike, hike in the nearby Wildwood Park or the Foothills Trail.

Washington State Fair car rental

The Washington State Fair, which takes place in September, is one of the biggest fairs in the country, so you'll want a rental car that makes your trip effortless. If you're with family, a spacious SUV can help with strollers and prize-winning stuffed animals. If you're taking the trip alone or just with your partner, a compact car that's easy to park can do the trick. Just remember to give yourself plenty of time to arrive early or park further away from the fair and enjoy the walk.

Mountain Trip car rental

Planning a day trip to Mount Rainier National Park? Rent an AWD or 4WD so you can drive comfortably through winding roads and/or icy surfaces. A rugged rental vehicle will also let you tackle some of the steeper climbs. And with a rental car, you can take in the scenery at your own pace, pulling over whenever something catches your eye and taking photos at scenic overlooks. The park is only an hour and a half away from Puyallup, but you may want to spend the night at a lodge, like the Nisqually Lodge, or at a cozy studio cabin less than a mile from the park's entrance.

Weekend Getaway car rental

A weekend getaway offers endless possibilities. Start with antique shopping and coffee in downtown Puyallup and then spend a few hours in Tacoma visiting the Museum of Glass and having dinner at a fine dining restaurant. Alternatively, you can book a cabin near Eatonville and immerse yourself in the state's parks all weekend, like the Northwest Trek Wildlife Park. Whatever your plans are, a rental car on Turo can get you there.

Purple squiggle

Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA)

Flying into the Seattle Tacoma International Airport (SEA) is the easiest way to get to Puyallup. Make a booking for your rental vehicle ahead of time, and designate the airport's parking garage as your pickup location. Once you arrive, bypass the long lines at the airport car rental counter and head straight to your designated pick-up spot. Your host will let you know exactly where the vehicle is on the Turo app. Once you're ready to take off, hop on the I-5 and head straight to your hotel.

Downtown Puyallup

Another convenient and lively pickup spot is downtown Puyallup. While your rental car is parked and safe, you can explore the lively mix of local cafes, antique row, and community events. Having your car right in the center of downtown makes it easy to check out the farmers market or grab a latte. A lot of the businesses here are family-owned, too, which adds to the charm. After you've explored the area on foot, you'll be ready to explore the rest of the region by car.

Sunrise Village

Want to get some shopping in before you pick your rental car up? Just designate Sunrise Village as your pickup spot. Located on South Hill, Sunrise Village is an open-air shopping center that offers plenty of space and lots of parking. You can also dine, shop, and relax while you're here. There are boutique stores, like 27 West, and dining options, like Trapper's Sushi or MOD Pizza. Don't forget to grab a smoothie at Emerald City Smoothie before heading out.

Top tips for renting a car in Puyallup


Renting a car in Puyallup makes it convenient to explore the city at your own pace. You can cruise through South Hill, spend the day at Mount Rainier, or hop back and forth between iconic coffee spots. But having your own ride means you get to set your own schedule.


Before you start your trip, though, here are some important tips to keep in mind when driving in Puyallup and the surrounding areas.


What are the road rules and driving conditions in Puyallup?


Driving in Puyallup is pretty straightforward, but you may notice some quirks that are specific to the Pacific Northwest. Weather is the biggest concern here. There is lots of rain in Puyallup, so expect the roads to become slick and visibility to shrink when there's fog. If you're driving toward Mount Rainier, be prepared to drive through winding routes and changing weather conditions.


There's rarely heavy snow in Puyallup, but the Mount Rainier area can get icy. If a trip to Mount Rainier National Park is on your list, consider renting an AWD or 4WD vehicle.


Downtown Puyallup can be busy with pedestrians, especially when the Farmers' Market is open, so drive more slowly here. And during the Washington State Fair, expect the downtown area to have heavy traffic for those three weeks. If you're driving during the fair, give yourself extra time to find parking, too.


What is parking like in Puyallup?


Fortunately, parking in Puyallup is manageable. Downtown has a mix of public parking lots and on-street parking. You shouldn't have any trouble finding a parking spot except if you're there during a major event, like the Washington State Fair. If you're in South Hill, you'll find plenty of parking at the mall area and Sunrise Village.


Visiting during the Washington State Fair? Parking during these three weeks can be a challenge. Parking spots fill up early, and you'll see a price increase on all the public parking lots. To save money, you can leave your car at the hotel and take public transportation to the fair or just park farther out.


Are there toll roads in Puyallup?


There are no toll roads in Puyallup, which means you can explore the city, drive to the mountains, and even head to Tacoma without paying extra fees.


Are there gas stations and EV chargers in Puyallup?


Puyallup may be a small town, but you'll still be able to find gas stations everywhere. Look for gas stations along Meridian Avenue and South Hill, like Arco and Shell.


EV drivers won't have a problem finding public chargers, either. There are plenty of public chargers near downtown, at the South Hill mall area, and in the parking lot of grocery stores. Some popular charging stations are the Blink Charging Station and Tesla.


Do I need to rent a car in Puyallup?


If you want to truly enjoy everything Puyallup and the surrounding areas have to offer, a rental car is the way to go. Puyallup is pretty spread out, and the public transportation system doesn't reach all the city's corners. A rental car also gives you the freedom to start your day in historic downtown and end up hiking in the beautiful Mount Rainier area.

On each trip, you’re covered with third-party automobile liability insurance provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company.*

On the vehicle pages, you’ll see the total miles or kilometres you’re allowed to drive under the heading “Distance included.” You can find cars offering unlimited mileage with every trip by using the “Unlimited distance” filter.

Can other people drive the car that I rented?

Yes, multiple guests can drive the car you rent on Turo, as long as they are all approved to drive. The primary driver (whoever rented the car) can add additional drivers with no fees or additional charges. Only the primary driver can request to add drivers; Turo hosts cannot do it for you. 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.

What rental car types are there in Puyallup?

Whether you plan to drive in South Hill, historic downtown, or head toward the mountain trails, Turo can deliver the car you need. You can find pickup trucks, luxury rental cars, and gas-friendly compact cars, like the Ford Focus. And if you're here on business, a Lexus CT, Volvo S60, or Buick LaCrosse is perfect to get to business meetings.

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

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

* 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. In the US, 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.
