We arrived to the Budget Rental in the Miami Airport to a very long line for our rental pickup. The line moved very slowly and added over an hour to our long travel day. We won’t be using Budget again. The other rental businesses seemed to be properly staffed and taking care of their customers very quickly. We were very frustrated with your company.Reviewed 30 Apr 2024

Even though it states otherwise on the Budget website i could not use a debit card to put down as a deposit on a convertible even though I had booked it online very disappointing after waiting more than a hr in line . Staff was not very clear about Toll charges and didn’t explain you could buy a pass elsewhere .Reviewed 16 Feb 2024

While the line at the airport was long, staff did progress through people quickly. What wasn’t acceptable was that we got a car that had not been cleaned before being put back into service. There was a layer of dirt on the outside which I didn’t care about but the inside had food crumbs, trash, and other evidence of someone else using it. Just gross. Then the washer fluid light came on, the check engine light came on, and another error saying “the camera is blocked”. Luckily we only needed the car for less than 24 hours. When I went to return the car, the agents told me I was late, but I wasn’t. They said I only rented the car for 24 hours and I said ok, well I picked it up at 1pm yesterday and it is 10:30am today so I’m actually quite early. And they calmed down. Just felt like they wanted to scold me. Which was funny because I actually had to wait for the hotel staff to go find the budget employees who were not at their work station. Overall not happy with my rental experience, but it got the job doneReviewed 18 Dec 2023

Drop off courtesy was abismal with no directions as to how to drop off car. Pick up was not better. Lack of cars, computer system issues, did express checkin and did not seed the process.Reviewed 10 Nov 2023

Top tips for hiring a car from Budget at Miami Airport

  • Miami is a busy city with a great public transport setup; however, you’ll sometimes need to change from a train to a bus to get to your destination. Budget car hire at Miami Airport (MIA) provides you with enhanced flexibility, so you don’t have to rely on public transport timetables.
  • Miami Airport is around 10 miles from the centre of the city. You’ll find a Budget branch in the Rental Car Centre at the terminal. To get to the office you should follow signs to the MIA Mover, which is on Level 3 of the terminal. Then take the train to MIC Station and follow signs to the branch. You must be at least 21 to get a car hire in Miami with those under 25 being subject to a surcharge.
  • When you travel from Miami Airport, everyone in the car needs to be wearing their seat belt. If you’re with a child that is five or younger they must also be in a suitable booster seat. If you want to use your phone in the car, you must ensure it is connected to a hands-free system. It’s illegal to drink and drive in the U.S. and if you’re caught you will be prosecuted accordingly. Emergency vehicles with their lights on or sirens flashing must be given right of way. Remember to drive on the right side of the road, which is the opposite of the U.K.
  • You should return your Budget hire car to the same place you collected it from, which is the Car Rental Centre. This company is open from 5:00 am to 1:00 am every day of the week.
