Top Tips for Renting a Van in St. Petersburg

  • Whether planning a long weekend getaway or summer vacation in St. Petersburg, van rentals are ideal if you are carting with your friends, family, or colleagues. Additionally, the van rental allows you to discover all St. Petersburg offers without worrying about fixed bus or train times. A trip to St. Petersburg would not be complete without a stop at its famed attractions like Salvador Dali Museum, Fort De Soto Beach, and the Morean Arts Center. Those looking to surf at St. Petersburg beaches will find the extra room in van rentals helpful in carrying their equipment.
  • If you want to access St. Petersburg, you will be flying into St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport (PIE). The airline hub is roughly 6 miles north of St. Petersburg, and your van rental will get you to the city center in less than 20 minutes. Car rental kiosks are at the heart of the airport, close to the baggage claim area, on the lower level. Once you have retrieved your luggage, head to the kiosks to book your van rental. Ensure that your credentials are in order to simplify your rental process. Your St. Petersburg van rental will be waiting outside baggage claim.
  • Acquaint yourself with some of St. Petersburg’s traffic rules to keep yourself as secure as possible while maneuvering the city in your St. Petersburg van rental. Be sure to proceed slowly when approaching intersections at major thoroughfares like 38th Avenue N, US-19, 5th Avenue N, 3rd Street N, and Central Avenue. There are multiple toll thoroughfares in Florida, so carry spare cash. The state’s Move Over Law requires you to utilize the left lane when an emergency automobile is at the roadside.
  • With no shortage of tourists and local drivers clogging the roads, traffic congestion in St. Petersburg is inevitable. Traffic congestion in the morning lasts from 7:30 am to 9:30 am. Peak congestion time in the evening lasts between 3:30 pm and 7:30 pm. Steer clear of driving at major thoroughfares like Hillsborough Avenue, Veterans Expressway, and I-275, or on national holidays. You may also plan your trips around midmorning to afternoon to avoid the rush.
  • Book your van rental in St. Petersburg at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • May is typically the cheapest month to rent a van in St. Petersburg, with prices around $86 per day. The most expensive month is March, with average prices of $156 per day.

FAQs About Renting a Van in St. Petersburg

  • What is the best place for me to rent a van in St. Petersburg?

    Getting your St. Petersburg van rental at St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport (PIE) once you deplane is more stress-free. The airport houses major car firms like Alamo, Budget, Enterprise, National, and Avis in the lower level. If you are in downtown St. Petersburg, there are a few alternatives nearby. Avis and Budget car rental firms have counters at 4037 66th Street North, and Enterprise has locations at 3400 5th Ave S and 4700 34th St N. You may also reserve a shuttle from the airport to these off-site locations well ahead of time.

  • What is the most reliable type of van I can choose when visiting St. Petersburg?

    Guests visiting St. Petersburg looking to grab van rentals often want a reliable and safe choice. If your group wants to explore St. Petersburg comfortably, one of the van rentals from brands like Chrysler or Toyota is a good alternative. For instance, Chrysler Pacifica and Toyota Sienna can fit up to seven passengers and their luggage. If you are tagging along with a larger group, a St. Petersburg van rental from a company like Ford accommodates 15 passengers plus their stuff.

  • What is the best place to park my van in St. Petersburg?

    Parking at St. Petersburg is easy to come by, thanks to their numerous parking alternatives, including time-limited, free-on-street parking, residential lots, parking lots, and garages. The downtown parking garages include Southcore Garage, whose entrance is at 101 1st Ave. S., Lot 2 at 6th St. N. street, and 13th Street and 1st Avenue Parking Lot. These parking lots are open round the clock and accept payments with either cash or credit cards.

Cons:

Car rental was not at airport, was offsite at an old hotel which was very strange. Shuttle was broken down upon arrival and not running for our departure. We had to take an Uber to the airport which was very inconvenient because we were traveling with a car seat and a small child. This location should not be included as an airport location.

Pros:

The car was a beautiful brand new 2020 model. The interior was sparkling clean and the exterior only had a few chipped paint spots. The car drove smoothly and fit my wife and I’s need.

Cons:

The staff at the pickup location was rude. Was not friendly and could’ve made the process of checking in for the car for enjoyable and less stressful.

Excellent customer service. The woman at the front desk was the best. If there was anything wrong she would turn any bad experience into a positive. Smiles, jokes. She’s someone you always want to meet when you first come into the store.

It would have helped to know that the Enterprise agency where we had rented from on-line was closed at noon on Saturday, especially as we didn't arrive until 1:00 p.m.. We were never able to pick up our rental car.

Pros:

Staff was friendly but unhelpful when I needed to return the rental after an hour when we realized the mattress we were trying to donate would not fit safely into the truck bed. They would not refund the purchase although fuel unchanged and plenty of inventory on lot indicating we were not tying up any vehicles. Very disappointing.

Canceled the reservation the same day I made it because the date was wrong and almost a month later and still no refund when I spoke with the woman on the phone she told me it was canceled and I'd see my refund in 5-7 days and nothing

Pros:

We cancelled this vehicle via phone call and on line. We are still being charged for the car.

Pros:

Pickup experience was a nightmare and I was placed into a dirty car.

Cons:

Speed at checkout. They should have cleaned the car... esp during Covid. They should have placed me into a different car if they didn’t have time to clean the car they put me into. I also could not get ahold of customer service for the life of me. Awful experience.

2.0 Poor

Jacob, Apr 2021

KAYAK

Pros:

Drop off at SFB was easy. We had to change our drop-off location mid-trip and this was easy to do over the phone using the “rental extension” phone number on our initial receipt.

Cons:

Was traveling with an IL driver’s license that had its expiration date extended 6 months by the state of IL due to Covid-19. No issues with TSA in 3 different airports. No issues anywhere except Hertz in St. Petersburg where the store manager would not allow me to pick up the car. In the state of FL, Hertz does not have good options for dealing with toll roads. You can either pay an exorbitant amount of money up-front (for our rental period something like $70, way more than the amount we would pay in tolls), or you can get charged afterwards for the tolls you use + a $10 administrative fee for each. There are several toll roads where you can only “pay by plate” or transponder and there is no option for paying with cash, so if you don’t know the area and your navigation takes you on one of these roads, Hertz has you over a barrel.
