All the car rental offices at Port Canaveral are easy to get to and have a free shuttle (as long as you are picking up/dropping off during normal hours). The shuttles run continuously in the morning picking up and dropping off passengers at the cruise terminal so no need to make an appointment.
The agencies that are near Port Canaveral are:
Avis, Budget, Hertz, Thrifty/Dollar (same location) and Enterprise.
You can find discount car rental codes at
www.mousesavers.com There is also a Disboard Rental code in the link below for Budget.
We have used most of them and all have been fine. Yes, there may be a backup of people at one or the other but overall they provide the same service. I believe they are all located at different location on A1A (Astronaut Blvd.).
I pick the one that has the cheapest rate for the time I need. Thrifty/Dollar charges a one-way drop fee but often they still come out cheaper even with the drop fee.
