Top Tips for Hiring a Van in Buffalo

  • Renting a van on your trip to Buffalo will be especially convenient for people traveling in large groups, such as families. Buffalo van rentals give you more space to ensure you don’t feel cramped when using the vehicle for extended periods. Additionally, there are multiple ergonomic features in the cabin that greatly increase the comfort of your trip by giving you more space to store your luggage and extra leg room.
  • When choosing Buffalo van rentals as your car of choice, make sure to consider that driving a van is a much different experience than a passenger car, especially in crowded towns such as Buffalo. Buffalo van rentals are bigger in both weight and size, and you will be required to take into consideration the larger blind spots. Therefore, make sure to adjust your speed if you’re inexperienced at driving vans to protect both yourself and other road users.
  • When flying into Buffalo, you will likely have your arrival airport as Buffalo International Airport where you can conveniently pick up your Buffalo van rentals. As Buffalo International Airport is the main airport serving the larger Buffalo region, multiple car rental companies operate from within the airport, which gives you a more extensive set of choices of car companies including Dollar, Avis, Enterprise, Hertz, and Budget. Make sure to book your Buffalo car rentals in advance to guarantee that you can acquire a van before they are all booked up.
  • A rush hour might be difficult to avoid, but if you can, you'll save a lot of time and hassle, especially when driving a Buffalo van rental. Rush hour in Buffalo typically occurs from 7 am to 9 am and again from 3 pm to 5 pm when the roads are crowded with people driving to and from work. Make sure to stay informed on the state of the roads. Most Buffalo van rentals come with navigation apps that may be used to find out which routes are congested.
  • 25% of our users found a people carrier hire in Buffalo for $176 or less
  • Book your people carrier hire in Buffalo at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • March is typically the cheapest month to hire a van in Buffalo, with prices around $108 per day. The most expensive month is July, with average prices of $204 per day.

FAQs About Hiring a Van in Buffalo

  • Where is the best Buffalo car rental location to rent a van?

    Your best bet at getting the most modern and widest variety of Buffalo van rentals is at the rental facility located at Buffalo International Airport. However, there are multiple car rental facilities located inside Buffalo city for those who would like to leave the airport as soon as possible.

You would be best served opting for off-street parking in Buffalo as the streets can get crowded, which may prove difficult to navigate in a van.

  • What should I do if my Buffalo van rentals experience mechanical problems?

    When choosing a van rental while in Buffalo, make sure to check the model year and mileage of your vehicle to avoid any potential mechanical problems that may arise. However, most car rental companies offer late model and low mileage vehicles ensuring you minimize the risk of mechanical issues.

I didn't end up getting my car. I waited in line for over an hour, saw them check out less than 10 people, and was then told they didn't have cars available for anyone except the people that had reserved a minivan. I ended up canceling my reservation and booking a car with Enterprise the next day. If at all possible, I'll never use Hertz again.
