Top tips for renting a car from Budget in Lansing
- Unlike many other places in the United States, when booking a Budget car rental in Lansing, you only need to be 18 years old and have a valid driver’s license. However, under-25 fees may apply to young drivers, and you may be restricted in the type of car you can drive. Check with your agent to see if these fees will apply to you and if there are ways to help alleviate these fees or bring the cost down, such as a good driving record or a full auto insurance policy on your personal vehicle.
- Since Lansing is located a bit farther away from other main Michigan cities you may want to visit, like Grand Rapids or Detroit, you may want to consider a compact, hybrid, or economy car for better gas mileage. While SUVs may offer more room for your luggage or passengers, a smaller vehicle can help you save by not using as much gas, particularly when driving on Interstate 96. Consider traffic as well as the time of day when visiting bigger cities, as places like Detroit can become very congested. Traffic may also become congested in Lansing from time to time, depending on Michigan State University events like football games.
- When booking a Budget car rental in Lansing, don’t forget to join the Budget Fastbreak Program, the company’s loyalty program. This can make picking up and dropping off a breeze by helping you skip the long lines and get to where you’re going faster, and best of all, it’s free to join. You can also score quality deals from Budget by joining the program, which will save you time and money.
- If your rental journey plans include crossing the Canadian border, Budget car rentals in Lansing can help with that. Just be sure to let them know you plan to leave the country with their vehicle and confirm it’s OK with them. While most insurance policies will cover you in the US and Canada, it’s important to check to be 100% certain. Please keep in mind that you'll have to show your rental agreement, passport, and driver’s license when crossing the border.
- Intermediate rental cars from Budget in Lansing are around 12% cheaper than other car types, on average.
