Picking up at DEN
Car rental at Denver (DEN): common questions
Where do you pick up a rental car at Denver (DEN)?
Rental counters and cars are at an off-terminal facility reached by shuttle from level 5, doors 505-513 (east) and 504-512 (west). The airport sits far out on the plains, so the shuttle plus the drive in means a real 30-40 minutes before you reach the city.
When is the cheapest time to book a rental car at DEN?
Prices at DEN move week to week, so there is no fixed answer. Check the price trend on this page: booking a few weeks ahead usually beats the walk-up rate, and our chart shows whether the current week is high or low versus recent ones.
Do I need to watch out for tolls driving from Denver?
I-70 west into the mountains is gorgeous, but weather turns fast. Many rentals require or strongly suggest AWD and chains over the passes in winter. The E-470 toll road rings the east side and bills by license plate, worth knowing before you take it.
Which car type should I rent at DEN?
For city trips a compact or economy car is usually enough and cheapest. If you are heading to Rocky Mountain National Park or Boulder, size up for the luggage and distance. Compare the rate per car type above before deciding.
Does it cost more to book through CarPriceRadar than going direct?
No. You pay the same price the rental company lists either way. If you book through one of our partner links they pay us a commission, not you, and that is what funds the price tracking.
