How pickup works in Columbus
Off-airport pickup. Your pickup location and instructions will be confirmed before arrival. Pickup is arranged in advance and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week; our offices are not continuously staffed, so your reservation confirmation email includes pickup instructions — where the van is, how to get the keys and what to bring.
12 & 15 passenger van options
One self-drive van, set up for 12 or 15 passengers, at one rate — you or another approved driver on your rental agreement drives. The 12-passenger setup is ideal for groups wanting passenger capacity with additional room for luggage; the 15-passenger setup is ideal for maximizing passenger capacity. A high roof is available — $95/day per high-roof van for the first 6 days, then $55 for each additional day — subject to availability. High-roof options include Ford Transit and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans, subject to location and availability. Passenger and luggage guidance →
