Top Tips for Renting a Van in Detroit

  • Choose a budget rental minivan in Detroit that offers room for your friends or family if you intend to go on a road trip with 5-7 other people. Due to the affordable prices and a minivan's outstanding gas efficiency, you'll find yourself with extra cash to spend when visiting one of Detroit's many boutiques. If you wish to go from Detroit to a nearby city, be sure to take advantage of some of the offers provided by the cheap Detroit van rental agencies so that you may also get one-way van rentals there.
  • If you are up for an outdoorsy vacation, it is suggested that you rent a reasonably priced 15-passenger van in Detroit. You'll have room in a passenger van for all of the people you're traveling with, as well as for luggage and outdoor equipment. Hiring a 12-passenger van from Avis is another fantastic choice for larger gatherings if you don't need to fit nearly as many people and also want to boost convenience. Some of these vans are spacious enough that, if you find them to be appropriate, you can opt to sleep inside of them.
  • Your pick of a cheap rental van should be significant because Detroit has many upscale locations that you might want to check out while you're in the area, especially if you want to enjoy the city's nightlife. To transport a sizable group of people while maintaining a posh appearance and having no trouble finding parking, you should choose high-end, reasonably priced, but attractive vans like the Chrysler Voyager.
  • If you decide to use the affordable Detroit van rentals while on vacation there, there are plenty of accommodation options, such as the DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Detroit Downtown - Fort Shelby, that allow van parking in their parking lots. Find out in advance from the hotel of your choice whether van parking is allowed on the property and whether there will be an additional fee.

I pre ordered a car via a website I use for work. I work for Delta Air Lines and am supposed to get a discount. When I clicked that I wanted to return it to a different location, it wouldn’t let me pick a different location. The girl at the front desk said she was not able to switch it herself, that I had to modify it myself. I could not and decided to cancel it. I found on Kayak.com that it let me do the option of dropping the car off at a different location, so I booked it. I got charged $20 more than what I had originally wanted to book. That was disappointing. Alamo will not be my first choice from here on out.

Pros:

Staff was helpful and the drop off was VERY quick and easy.

Cons:

Computers were down when picking up my rental, so there was a long line and long wait to complete the paperwork. Then, after the paperwork was completed, they had to radio someone to bring up our rental (a minivan) and we waited more than 20 minutes for someone to bring it. I went back to the counter and asked if the van was somewhere we could walk to and pick it up and they radioed again. Then I watched as a porter went to a minivan that was a short walk (maybe 100 yards away) and drive the car to the front of the building.

The lady at the Detroit airport pickup office was incredible! She was kind, efficient, and extremely helpful. There was an issue with the first vehicle I picked up. The car smelled like someone had been smoking in the vehicle. That was not acceptable for a week rental. When I went back to the counter and pointed out this problem the person helping me was apologetic and immediately arranged for another vehicle. I would hire this person to work in my office.

At the last minute, when I went to pick up the car, I was an 1-2 hour early. The Hertz representative charged me extra money for picking up my car early, which I think is ridiculous. You are allowed to pick up cars as early as previous nite with no charges in cities where office closes at 5 pm., but Hertz charged me for 2 hours extra. Ridiculous!

I Was supposed to show up at 8pm, but got an earlier flight to keep my options open because I know there was a car shortage. Customer support on the phone said they couldn’t guarantee any thing earlier. I was expecting to sit at the Detroit airport for four hours. The guy behind the desk was Ramone, and he was professional, friendly, and made absolutely certain I got on the road almost as early as I could make it. Ramone didn’t just saved my bacon, but he helped me get to have a full Thanksgiving with a girl I’m in love with, all with a smile on his face. Please give him a raise or someone is going to hire him out from under you. I’ve usually rented from enterprise, but I’m going with y’all first from now on just because of that guy. Thanks! Y’all are the best!

Waited 2 hours in line during check in in order to get a car. Slowest system I’ve ever seen for car pick up. Can’t believe in 2024 this isn’t a kiosk or there isn’t a more efficient way to check in.

Pros:

The car was great and drop off was quick and easy.

Cons:

The pickup was terrible. Attendant in the lot just stared right through me as I asked a question 3 times and then yelled into his radio. Eventually I gave up and figured it out myself. He never acknowledged that I was even standing there. Then i walked all the way across the lot to the building and the clerk inside asked a bunch of questions about insurance even though I purchased it when I booked the car. I didn't know it was third party but he acted like it was no good. Then told me to go out by the fence to get a truck. The only vehicles by the fence were needing maintenance. Someone drove by and told me to go back in and have him call for one. So I did. Waited 15 more minutes and the lady from Alamo came to ask if I was waiting for a truck and that it had been parked on the other side.
