This was the SDF airport Budget rental counter. They told me I was unable to rent without a credit card on hand. Fair, I didn't know that was necessary. They then directed me 10 miles away to a Budget location they said could take my debit card. When I arrived, the second location was filthy, stinky and creepy. The clerk there told me they couldn't take debit card either, and the airport clerk probably told me that just to get rid of me. Because there were no accommodations or ways for someone without a credit card on hand to even consider renting a car, we had to call me elderly mother to drive 5 hours to pick us up so we could drive another five hours back to Pittsburgh. Miserable experience, I will never even try to rent from Budget again, and I will likely never rent a car again at all.Reviewed 9 Mar 2024

Pickup time was Sunday at 12 noon. Arrived 12:02. Guy said we closed at 12 and wouldn’t give me rental. Customer service sent me to another location guaranteeing vehicle. Drove to this location to find no rental to meet 7 passengers. Drive to inconvenient third Budget location and had to pay more. Needless to say, extremely late to destination because lazy worker at first location would not give me the keys. He was very rude as well. Pathetic customer service. I will never rent from Budget/Avis again.Reviewed 13 Feb 2024

Morning staff was terrible. The lady for the afternoon was very nice but the guy that was there in the early morning was not good. He mumbled, acted like I had inconvenienced him. I will not go back to that location.Reviewed 17 Oct 2023

Budget called me at 10:30am (1.5 hrs before pick up) and let me know they didn’t think they’d have the kind of van I needed, that I reserved. I had to call 2 more times for updates , they didn’t call me. And I gave up. I never received a cancellation or a call to let me know they weren’t able to provide my reservation.Reviewed 8 Oct 2023

I wish I would have known someone smoked in the car before I rented it. I’m sensitive to smoke and I would have chosen a different vehicle.Reviewed 4 Oct 2022

• Where should I plan to pick up my Budget car rentals when I arrive in Louisville, Kentucky?

  If you are flying into Louisville International Airport (SDF), you will be happy to learn that Budget has a rental office directly at the airport’s terminal so you have easy access to your rental car as soon as you land. If you are already in the city, you may want to check out the branches on Crittenden Drive, Taylorsville Road, and Plantside Drive, as these may be better for you to reach rather than driving all the way to the airport for a rental car.

  Travelers who rent from Budget can sign up for the Budget Fastbreak program, a rewards program that offers perks like expedited pick-up and return service, designated counters, and points that can accumulate for free rentals and other discounts. Aside from this, Budget renters can enjoy a wide variety of options when it comes to car type and rest assured that Budget’s fleet is made up of relatively new vehicles.
