Need Rental Car Drop Off Advice

[Little E]

Hi Disfriends!

I never rent cars when I go to WDW...I live in the midwest and we always fly to MCO and then Uber to our resort. Plans are a little different for my trip in mid March. I'm helping my folks who are staying in another part of Florida, and then driving to WDW after I leave my folks. I will be picking up my rental car where my parents are staying and then driving the 3 hours to WDW. I am staying at Pop and meeting my friend at MK. My research says that there is a "Care Care Center" at WDW where I can drop my rental car. The WDW website lists the address as: 1000 Car Care Drive, Orlando, FL 32830. Is this a legit thing? And, how easy it to drop a car off there and then head to MK (or any of the parks for that matter)? Any drop off advice folks have for me would be awesome. Thank you so much!

Yes, the Car Care Center IS a legit thing, but I believe there are only a couple of car rental agencies there (Alamo I know for sure). You can drop the car there and they'll take you to anyplace on Disney property that you ask, but I don't know the hours. There is also a gas station right there so you can top off the tank.

I believe there are also car rental desks at the swan or dolphin. You can enter lake buena vista on a car rental site, and it will give you various options near Disney.

When you drop a car off at the Car Care Center, which has Alamo, Enterprise, and National, they will shuttle you anywhere on Disney property, including the parks, for free.

@Ross Kratter This is great! Do I need to set the shuttle up before I arrive, or can they just shuttle me after I turn my car in?

They’ll do it after you turn in your car, no advance reservation required. You may share with another party so it isn’t necessarily fast but we usually ended up as our own party. (Keep in mind if you want to go to MK they’ll just drop you at TTC.)
