## Quick answer

To return your rental car outside standard hours, use the designated key dropbox or follow after-hours return procedures.

## Detailed answer

To return your rental car outside standard operating hours (typically between 8am-5pm, Monday to Friday) at SeaTac Rental Car Facility, follow these steps: 1) Ensure you have completed the rental agreement and have the keys ready. 2) For after-hours returns, use the designated key dropbox located near the exit of the facility. The key dropbox is available 24/7 and is clearly marked. 3) If you need to access the facility after hours, you can use the secure gate access code provided during your rental pickup. 4) For added convenience, an overnight shuttle is available to transport you from the facility to the SeaTac Airport terminals or nearby hotels. The shuttle operates every 30 minutes between 10pm and 5am. 5) Be aware that a late return fee may apply if you return the vehicle after the agreed-upon return time, typically $20 per hour for the first 4 hours, and $100 thereafter. 6) Inspect the vehicle for any damage before returning and report any issues to the rental agency as soon as possible. The SeaTac Rental Car Facility is located at 17801 International Blvd, SeaTac, WA 98188.
