Car Rental Locations & Options
Most travelers arrive via Indianapolis International Airport (IND), which is about 20 minutes from Brownsburg by car. The table below compares airport versus local rental options:
| Feature | Indianapolis Airport (IND) | Brownsburg Town Locations |
|---|---|---|
| Convenience | Walk from terminal to on-site garage | Requires taxi/rideshare from IND (20 min drive) |
| Hours | 24/7 or extended hours | Business hours (8AM-6PM weekdays, limited weekend hours) |
| Cost | Higher due to airport fees (11% concession fee + facility charge) | Lower base rates; standard sales and rental tax only |
| Wait Times | 15-30 min lines during peak times (mid-afternoons, Sunday evenings) | Minimal wait (except Monday mornings) |
| After-Hours | Drop available anytime | Some offices offer key-drop for returns |
Transport Options: If flying into IND, on-site rentals require no shuttle—simply follow signs to the rental car center in the parking garage. For Brownsburg locations, a rideshare from IND costs approximately $30-$40. Some local offices (like Enterprise) offer local pickup service in Brownsburg.
Car Rental Prices
How to pay less?
- Compare IND airport vs Brownsburg town depots. Skipping the airport's 11 % concession fee can save roughly $10-15 per day even after a $30 rideshare from the terminal.
- Pick smart dates. Monday-Thursday pickups or adding a Saturday night often drops the weekly total.
- Dodge event surges. Indy 500 week and Labor Day NHRA races push prices up fast—lock something in months ahead or shift your trip by a day or two.
- Play with car classes and suppliers in the search results. A midsize may be on promo and cheaper than an economy, and different brands discount at different times.
- Recheck rates 1-3 weeks out. Many bookings are free to cancel, so you can swap to a lower price if it pops up during the quieter Jan-Mar or Sept-Nov windows.
- Refuel near the return lot to avoid flat refueling fees that are way higher than local pump prices.

FAQs
What documents do I need to rent a car in Brownsburg?
You need a valid driver's license and a major credit card in your name. If you plan to use your own car insurance instead of buying the rental company's insurance, you should bring proof of it. Some companies may ask to see it. International visitors should also bring their passport and if your driver's license isn't in English, you'll need an International Driving Permit.
What is the minimum age to rent a car in Brownsburg?
You usually need to be at least 21 years old. Rental companies will usually charge drivers ages 21 to 24 a young-driver fee of about $25 to $30 per day.
Can I add additional drivers to my rental?
Yes. Most companies charge about $13 to $15 per day for each extra driver, but they often won't charge extra for a spouse or domestic partner. Every extra driver needs to show a valid driver's license when you pick up the car.
What happens if I encounter snow during my rental period?
Road crews usually plow and salt main roads quickly. Rental agencies in central Indiana do not provide snow tires or chains, but you can ask for a vehicle with all-wheel drive to get better traction.
