If you're considering driving or returning your rental vehicle to a different city or state than your pick-up location, it's essential to first confirm this option with the rental agency.

Driving to Another State or City:

Most rental companies allow you to drive their vehicles in multiple cities or states; however, specific rules and restrictions may apply. Always check directly with the rental agency to confirm permitted areas.

Returning the Vehicle in Another Location:

If your travel plans include returning the rental vehicle to a different city or state, ensure:

  • The rental agency has a branch at your intended drop-off location.

  • They authorize one-way rentals between the two points.

On the AirportVanRental website, simply select the option to return the vehicle to a different location during your search. All displayed results will automatically include rental agencies that support this service. If you did not select a different return location during your initial search, please reach out directly to the rental agency to confirm the most accurate information and any associated costs.

Important Reminder: One-Way Fees

Be aware that returning a rented vehicle to a different location typically involves a one-way fee. This fee varies based on the distance between the pick-up and drop-off locations, as well as administrative policies of the rental agency. The total cost displayed on AirportVanRental includes this fee, ensuring transparent pricing.
