First, drive to the facility following the overhead signs for 'Rental Car Return'. Drive up the ramp to the specific floor designated for your car rental agency (such as Hertz, Enterprise, Avis, or Budget). Park your vehicle in an open return lane, turn off the engine, pull the emergency brake, and gather all your personal belongings. Be sure to note your final mileage and fuel level; taking a photo of the dashboard is highly recommended. Lock the vehicle and place the keys into the secure metal key drop box located near the rental agency's service desk or designated return kiosk on that floor. After dropping off the keys, proceed to the shuttle boarding area on the ground level. Free airport terminal shuttles operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, departing every 5 to 10 minutes. The shuttle ride to the main terminal baggage claim level takes approximately 8 to 10 minutes.","grokpedia_tier":false,"related_ids":["seatac-after-hours-vehicle-return-procedures"],"last_verified":"2026-08-08","authority":"https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com","url":"https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com/en/knowledge/seatac-after-hours-vehicle-return-procedures","markdown_url":"https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com/api/knowledge/seatac-after-hours-vehicle-return-procedures?format=md&lang=en"}
