Once you get to the airport, follow for signs to “Car Rental Return” and drive as advised. Some companies offer 24-hour services for convenient pick-up and drop-off. The companies that do not offer these services provide after-hour return services for convenient drop-off. If returning the car during after-hours, you can leave the contract and the keys at the drop-box area. Also, ensure you remove all the items from the vehicle. Also, arrive on time when returning car rentals at Wausau Central Wisconsin Airport.

Wait times can be over half an hour up to an hour. If you wish to avoid long queues, consider booking online. You can reserve your pick-up time at least 45 minutes after your scheduled arrival hours. This reduces your wait times, and you can be on your way as soon as you arrive.

Pros:

Staff was very helpful and friendly and yes, pick up/drop off was great. It’s nice that they were open after the last flight came in and that the desk was at the airport vs offsite

Cons:

I haven’t received my receipt by email yet. It’s been 24 hours since drop off. I really need my recipes so I can turn it in for reimbursement for work. With AVIS, they email my receipt immediately so it doesn’t slow down me getting paid. But I was happy with everything else

Sean at the Wauasau, WI airport was so helpful. We had car trouble on our way home from my Dad's funeral and he was very professional, showed compassion and got us back on the road with a rental. Really impressed.

Cons:

The car selection was terrible. The agent did not walk the car with us in Mosinee WI. She was polite. When we arrived in Milwaukee at the airport. The enterprise representative went on about the bump on the passenger door. I said they told us it was documented in the rental record. He went on about well they have to fix it. We can’t rent this again. I said I’m not paying for this. He explained that we would not be charged etc. why even bring this up to the client? This is an agency concern. With all the trouble I had finding a rental. I am not happy.

Pros:

The car was mostly clean.

Cons:

Any and all. The rental associate sounded like a used car salesman trying to nickel and dime you. I got inaudible sounds and shoulder shrugs when I didn’t take the “bumper to bumper” coverage, an extra $68/day. The first car I spend 10 minutes packing and installing a car seat sounded like I was dragging a bumper when I applied the brakes. The same associate told me it was because it sat for a week. I told her I’m not trusting my family to a car that has brakes that sound that bad. Car was changed and again she couldn’t help herself, “you could upgrade for another $258”. This was hands down the worst rental car experience. I felt like I was being set up and robbed all at the same time.

the counter was closed from 4-5 pm and I was not notified. I set up to pick up at 4 arrived a little late and no one was there. The girl at the counter was not polite but rather kept trying to blame that I should have checked Avis times of operation. This should have been listed when I booked it AND should not have allowed me to pick up at 4 if they were closed at 4. Her attitude did not help.
