Top Tips for Renting a Van in Stamford
- Stamford does not have a particularly robust public transportation system, so the best way to move throughout the city is by reserving Stamford van rentals. When you have access to Stamford van rentals, you will be able to move your luggage with ease and fit multiple individuals in your vehicle, which is convenient for friends or family groups. You will also be able to go on road trips and travel to places a bit further away from the city center, including Mianus River Park.
- Visitors who will be traveling to the region by flying into New York La Guardia (LGA) can always pick up their Stamford van rentals directly from there. There are a number of car rental agencies that offer free shuttle services from New York La Guardia (LGA) to their offices, many of which pick up directly outside of the Arrivals terminal. Some of these companies include Alamo, Enterprise, and National.
- While driving in Stamford is typically safe and easy, there are a few things that you should keep in mind before getting behind the wheel of a rental car. For example, there are often quite a few pedestrians and cyclists in downtown Stamford, so always be on the lookout for these. In more rural areas surrounding the city, roads may not be well-lit, so proceed with caution when driving at night.
- Stamford itself does not have a lot of congestion, but you will often come across traffic when driving towards New York City. To avoid getting stuck in a traffic jam, try not to be on the road between the hours of 7 and 10 am and 4:30 and 7 pm. In the winter, it is quite common for the region to have snow, so make sure that you have chains on the tires of your rental car.

FAQs About Renting a Van in Stamford

Jun 2019
Pros:
Alamo is my go-to car rental company now. Very friendly service, and their phone agents are really helpful if there's any problems. Especially when you pick up and drop off a car in different locations, which I often do.Cons:
The only problem was picking up and dropping off at locations that are NOT airports. Always call the locations before you go and know their hours of operation. These are not 24/7 satellites. One place closed at 6 pm; another at 2 pm!4.4 Mediocre
Nov 2017
Pros:
The cost to rent a "premium" car was very reasonable and brought us out to Stamford. Robert, the office manager, was very personable and nice to work with.Cons:
The car (a Chrysler 300) had about 30K miles so it was far from new. It was filthy inside and out. The windshield was dirty on the inside which made it hard to see in some conditions. The oil was overdue to be changed and it dinged a reminder every time we started up to go somewhere. Also, it had a badly warped brake rotor. Also, it was, unfortunately, an uncomfortable car for me and not very nice to drive.10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
The gentleman at checkout in Stamford was quick and professional.Cons:
The car had the wrench symbol (I.e. it was due for servicing) from the get go. The engine did not sound great and rattled such that I was concerned the car was going to break down on me. The car's tank was only 7/8 full and I had to tell the agent, who had marked it as full on my rental agreement. When I called in to change my drop-off location it took forever to get someone on the line.Hertz

Pros:
The drop-off was a pure nightmare - we arrived in the evening but the office was closed and there was no possibility to drop the key. We tried again at 7am in the morning but the office opened at 8am and we had to wait for outside in the cold. Nobody informed us about this hassle.Cons:
When I picked up the car, I informed staff that we might be late this day and the person at the desk said that we can keep the return date FOR NOW. When I returned it indeed later, I did not only pay for 1 more day but also had to pay US$ 12 for delayed return and nobody alerted me about this.6.0 Okay

Pros:
Car was okCons:
Did not answer my questions about drop off correctly in case charges extra. Manager was super rude because my passenger had left an item in the car after we turned in the keys which he considered “lost” even though they were exactly where I said they were. He then stated I was trying to rewrite their “lost and found” policy. Would never rent again from this location or enterprise because they also were no help in any of this.10.0 Wonderful

Cons:
The first car was extremely dirty and the interior smell of cigarette. I've asked the attendant to change cars. I got another one that was dirt in the outside but at least didn't smell.

Pros:
Friendly staff, clean car, good ratesCons:
Even though the budget guy said I had the option of dropping off the car after hours (if I were a day early) when I arrived the place was locked up like fort knox and I had to make an additional 3 hour round trip to bring the car back *during my work day.* This was extremely frustrating and the fact that it was avoidable given proper signage or instruction, made it downright maddening.National

Mar 2018
Pros:
It was nice to get an upgrade without having to pay for it.Cons:
The car smelled a little weird and I had to drive with the windows open for a couple of hours to air it out. The seats could use a deep clean. They are tan and fabric, so they showed wear. Also the car was a bit bigger than I could handle and it was a gas guzzler unfortunately.Car rental locations in or near Stamford
