Which car companies can accomodate late arrivals?

In November, mama ifloat and I will be arriving on STT around 4:30. I can't imagine we'd be in St. John before 6pm on a Sunday. Can anyone recommend a car company who can accomodate our late arrival? Thanks in advance for the suggestions!

We have rented from C&C numerous times with a late arrival and they will work with you. They are located up the hill right past the ball field. My husband goes and gets the jeep and brings it back to the ferry landing for loading.

One year we arrived very, very late (around 11:00 PM) on St. John. Our reservation was through Cool Breeze. They just left the keys in the jeep for us. Our name was on a piece of paper on the dash. We went back the next morning to do the paperwork.

I have also had success in having the villa management company get the keys for us from St. John Car Rental when arriving after hours. Again, we had to go back in the morning to do the paperwork.

Definitely call and check with your management company or car rental agency though, as I have not had to do this in the past year and policies change.

We always use Bougainvillea Jeep Rental (StJohnJeeps.com). On 2 trips, they accommodated our late arrival on a Sunday evening. We've had good experiences with this company on our 4 visits to StJ, so we can recommend them. We are renting from this for our trip this year too.

Thanks for the suggestions! If anyone else can recommend any other companies that have accomodated late arrivals for you, please do. The first company I tried is already out of jeeps for our time period so I'd like as many options as possible.

have rented from Penn's before with late arrivals. On one occasion they just left the keys in the jeep and another time they were in the office and handled paperwork after hours.

We have rented from Courtesy 4 times and Gregory is always very accommodating and meets us at the ferry dock even after hours. At least twice we have arrived after 7, and one of those times our flight was delayed so we didn't get to STJ until 8pm or later. I really like Courtesy. Nice people.
