Car rentals in Stafford offer multiple car options. Your personal preferences and needs will heavily influence the one you go for. Consider getting a minivan for a family trip or with a small group of up to four. A minivan will comfortably accommodate such a group while offering enough luggage space. If you're traveling alone, consider getting an economy rental, as they have pocket-friendly rates. Economy rentals are also ideal for trips within the town center as they are efficient when navigating busy streets and parking.
Speed limits in Stafford vary depending on the type of road you're driving on and the area you are in. They are usually posted by the roadside. If you're driving on a road without signage, keep it to under 25 mph for schools, residential, and business areas. The speed limit for access highways with divided roadways and primary highways is 55 mph. Keep an eye on the posted speeds; exceeding them by 20 mph amounts to reckless driving and attracts a hefty fine.
The best places to park in Stafford are usually in commercial areas, around the town center, or near major landmarks. You will find lots of parking spaces for most types of vehicles in these locations. If you go for paid parking near major landmarks like Aquia Episcopal Church or the town center, you can expect to pay around $1.6 per hour. You can also reserve a space in one of Stafford’s many parking spaces online to guarantee parking when you arrive.

Aug 2020
Pros:
One of the staff was friendly. The lady the originally took care of me, she seems like she didn’t want to be there. She gave a a dirty and smelly car. Also the car she gave me was dangerous because it was raining really hard and the windshield wipers, you can tell, they needed to be cleaned. Moving forward I got a new replacementCons:

Pros:
The staff was very friendly and helpfulCons:
WAY too EXPENSIVE!!!! I paid over $1,200 for renting a van for 7 days. That is $800 over what I should have had to pay, had another rental car business in the area had a van that I could have rented. I will not be renting from you again, because of the outrageous expense.10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
I reserved a midsize, which would not be available for 30 minutes, so they upgraded me to a van at no cost. Very pleased with the experience overall2 locations in Stafford

Pros:
Associate was friendly and helpful.Cons:
I wanted to extend the rental for a week and was told that it would be $900 (for a midsize car). Took my business elsewhere for less than $200. This caused me an unnecessary 90 minute round trip and cost Budget a week’s rental fee. Also, the rental location in Fredericksburg is not well described; it’s buried in Sears Auto Center.6.0 Okay

Jan 2017
Pros:
I had a 1:00pm reservation at the Brafferton location so I called ahead to confirm. When I got there, Harris took care of my car rental. He's very friendly and knowledgeable as well as friendly. I highly recommend. He made the process very easy to deal with and I was out of there with a great and clean car in about 15 minutes. Thanks Harris! I will be definitely coming back to this location.Cons:
I'd like to say nothing because from making the reservation online to picking up the car in Stafford to returning the car at the BWI airport, everything worked out great! But it's too bad that after living for 4 years in the North Stafford area, I only just found out there was a location near me days ago.2 locations in Stafford

Pros:
NothingCons:
No car available once I got there, waste of an uber then I had to run down the street to try and make it to Enterprise before they closed. Staff seemed helpful to begin with, then just left me sitting there waiting time when they didn't have any cars. Never renting from that location again.2.0 Poor
Jan 2021
Pros:
Easy to bookCons:
Almost everything. I didn't have a mask and the guy behind the counter told me to go away. I was just dropped off by a uber and the nearest place selling masks was a 1 mile walk. He never offered to let me do the transaction outside. After I got in the car two minutes down the road a warning light came on indicating the car had been in an accident. I had to call HERTZ and photo the warning light so as to not be blamed for something I didn't do. When I got to the airport drop off no one was around and no sign for the key drop. I had to guess what to do and had no confirmation of an inspection of the car, just walked out assuming I did what I was supposed to do.10.0 Wonderful
