Generally speaking one ways are more expensive. Looking at your price of $889 is roughly $296 a week.(
This time of year cars are very pricey, + u are going one way.
Dont think u will get more of a deal.

I think it would be best for all you guys to first search kayak then list the prices so ppl. Here can try to save you more. Instead of posting. Price:? maybe post your own results aka hertz$324 avis $312 national $345 then ppl.can sugest different corp. Codes coupons.

anybody ever rent from "Aco Rent A Car" - i think they have only in Miami and Orlando ....

going to Orlando and need a car

Pick up and Return from MCO
pick up 6/30 - 5pm
return 7/3 - Noon

looking for cheapest and went through some codes and all ... most quotes were atleast like $150

this MCO company showed up as a quote from carrentals.com - only was charging for 3 days and at $15 per day - total of like $68 w/tax and fees ... but sounded way too cheap and sketchy .. did some research online and they seem legit.. was just wondering if anyone ever heard of them on the forums and any advice or if i should just go with another company.

Just a follow up to this... I just got back from Orlando and I ended up using this company....

It's Legit ... got my car for $15 / day (2013 Toyota Corolla)... and they only charge for 3 days instead of 4 for the above times... my total bill was $69.00

2 things to note:

1) this place is like an extra 2 miles away from the airport/ normal car rental return (although they have a shuttle just like all the others)
2) their shtick is that you need to prove that the car is insured or they make you buy ther insurance.. so you have to print out you insurance/policy number or something for them to put in the computer) otherwise people will be calling in to theire insurance companies tryting to get it faxed over while your waiting to rent the car.

Looking for a MONTH long rental in nj. I do have the standard corporate account numbers but i am looking for a steep discount or at least something much cheaper than standard. Anybody have any experience in monthly rentals? Thanks in advance.

EDITED by author.
Found a quote from National with a code i found making it 707.00 for 3 weeks, the cheapest i found so far.

Is it possible to find cheaper?

Have used them a lot recently at other USA airports, very new cars, and good service. Make sure their location is in the airport.

how do they manage to be literally half the price!?
Also i found $176 with avis through USAA do you think it's worth it to go with the reputable company for the 20 buck difference?
