Nearest gas station
There is a Shell station on Buckeye Rd. a block away from the Rental Car Center, but its prices are around $1 more per gallon than other stations in the area. It may be useful if you fill up earlier and only top off at it.

If approaching on I-17 from the north, use exit 196 to reach a different Shell station.

Please ask a correct rent car return address when receiving the car because when trying to find that address it is almost impossible to find or guess it yourself!
