Top tips for renting a car at Orlando Sanford Intl airport
- When flying into Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB), booking a car in advance is the wisest decision you can make. When you reserve a car rental at Orlando Sanford Intl Airport through KAYAK, you don't need to wait in line upon arrival. You simply go straight to the rental desks that are conveniently located on-site. Generally, roads in Orlando are easier to navigate with cars, giving you an edge over shuttle services that get crowded sometimes. The best part of driving a rented vehicle is the variety of options lined up for you, from packing extra snacks, stopping over at your preferred spots, and the comfort of traveling solo.
- Locating Orlando Sanford Intl Airport’s car rental center is quick thanks to clear directions and company logos displayed inside and outside the terminals. After clearance at the passport control, pick up your baggage and don't leave behind any of your belongings at the airport because you may not be allowed in again. The majority of the car rental companies are inside the building across the road. Exit the terminal and cross Red Cleveland Blvd to pick up your car keys.
- In Sanford, FL, traffic often delays in the morning around 7.30 am to 9.30 am and in the evening (4.30 pm to 6.30 pm). Luckily, with a car rental at Orlando Sanford Intl Airport, you can evade most of the road congestion by taking toll routes. Most car rental companies provide the SunPass sticker to help you drive through the toll stress-free. In case you don't get the pass from the company, have some cash ready to pay at the toll booths.
- Depending on the car rental service, you have different options for fueling the car. Some providers like Enterprise allow you to prepay for the fuel, i.e., refill the fuel tank during pick-up and return it empty. But there's no refund for unused fuel. Another option is to pay for the fuel used after the trip. Or, you can return the car with the same level of gas as received. After hours of adventure, return the vehicle to the rental facility's park and lock it. Most of the car return signs are displayed along Cleveland Boulevard, the same place for pick-ups. Drop the keys and the completed contract in the designated box.

FAQs about renting a car at Orlando Sanford Intl airport
What should you present when picking up and returning a car rental at Orlando Sanford Intl Airport?
Whether you live in the United States, US Territories, or Canada, you need an unexpired driver's license. It must be valid for the rental period and contain your photograph. Digital licenses are unacceptable at the rental desk. After leaving the baggage claim area, proceed to the rental car center and show your driver's license and national ID card to receive car keys and a printed agreement. If you work in the United States Armed Forces, carry with you an Active Military ID.
What are the renter's requirements in terms of age?
Book an Orlando Sanford Intl Airport car rental only if you are 21 or older. An underage surcharge fee applies to drivers aged between 21 and 24. Again, this age bracket is only eligible for specific vehicle categories like standard SUVs, cargo vans, economy, and minivans. If you have a spouse or partner meeting the minimum age and license requirements, they will be authorized as your additional drivers at no extra fee. But check the contractual conditions of your provider beforehand.
Do you need insurance to pick up a car at SFB, and what other rules apply?
The driving laws in Florida require you to give proof of insurance. If you don't have the insurance, the car rental company at SFB can help you get one. For your safety, confirm from your personal insurance provider before going to Sanford. During a rainy day, make sure that the headlights and windshield wipers are on as stipulated by the law. If you have kids below the age of 5, ensure they are in state-approved car seats. As you navigate construction zones, be mindful of speed because speeding fines are severe around these areas.

Pros:
Literally nothing. As soon as I landed (at midnight) I had a message from Budget saying that they didn’t have a car for me and there was nothing they could do. I had to sleep in the airport because it was too late and too expensive to try and get another car. Worst experience I’ve ever had with a car rental, and I’ve had some pretty bad ones.Cons:
Everything, literally anything and everything would’ve been better. I’m never using your service again, and will strongly discourage anyone I ever meet from using your service either because of this.2.0 Poor

Pros:
I asked for a rental out of Orlando, FL Airport. When I arrived I found out that the car was in Sanford, FL 45 minutes away with no shuttle as promised. I could not get to Sanford to pick up the car and they would not honor the reservation in Orlando's Dollar Rental. It cost me $75 to pay a taxi to get me to my hotel and I never got my rental. Had to pay for a taxi the whole time I was in Florida.Cons:
Could have provided a car at the right airport.8.0 Very good

May 2020
Pros:
Car was new and clean. The local AVIS reprepsentative at 340 FL-16 St Augustine, FL 32084 gets a major kudos on this one - see below for what he helped us avoid.Cons:
We had to change the driver on our reservation at the last minute bc my sister-in-law suffered an eye injury at work and wasn't able to see to drive (she's a nurse). Instead of allowing us to change the driver on our original reservation, they made us cancel it - with penalty - and make an entirely new reservation for double the original cost. Very very disappointing, especially treating a front line worker like that during the time of COVID! Then, at the end of the reservation, we needed to return the car to a different location than where we picked it up due to a change in our flight. The local AVIS reprepsentative at 340 FL-16 St Augustine, FL 32084 gets a major kudos on this one. I called his location which was only 4 miles from where we were staying and he said he could accept our return. I called back because I forgot to ask him if there was any fee for returning to a different location than the pick-up location, but he was busy so I got AVIS national. They told me I could return the car there for the low low price of a little over $700!!! WTF .... unbelievable. And the representative tried to convince me that paying over $1000 for a 4-day car rental was somehow a "good deal." Absolutely ridiculous. I called the local rep back and he told me he would waive that fee. Thankfully, he was true to his word and we were only charged the original fee we were quoted. However, still double our original reservation. So I have to say AVIS, I don't see renting from you again in the future.National

Pros:
picking up the car was excellent. Everyone most helpful. Car was everything I expected and fun to drive. Dropping off car in lot, I did not appreciate being harassed by the return agent while I was trying to get my 3 pieces of luggage organized, and loose items stowed away, like my GPS. I only asked for 5 minutes, but agent would not leave me alone. However: All in all the best experience I had renting a car at Sanford in a long time.Cons:
Keys were a wad in my pocket for the entire week. Had to stuff them in a pants pocket wherever I went. How about some thoughtfulness when giving out 4 separate items on a braided steel cord that will not compress flat. Perhaps, give customer the option to "cut the cord" at the counter. Particularly for people dropping off at the pickup point.10.0 Wonderful
