How to Find Your Car Hire Desk at Badhoevedorp Downtown
- Book through eCarBookers first: Your booking confirmation from eCarBookers locks in your price and your vehicle class before you arrive. You pay the balance at the desk on collection, and the terms confirmed at booking are the terms you receive. Always confirm your hire in advance to guarantee your price from the moment you collect the keys.
- Where the desk is: The listing for Badhoevedorp Downtown does not state a street address, a desk location or whether collection is at a counter or by meeting a representative. Your booking voucher is the definitive source for the meeting point, so check it before you travel and follow it on arrival.
- Opening hours: Opening hours for this branch are not published on the listing checked. Confirm the hours for your date in your booking confirmation, and allow for the time it takes to reach the village if you arrive by air or by train.
- Reaching the village: Badhoevedorp is in the municipality of Haarlemmermeer, beside Schiphol, and the Schipholweg (N232) is the main road between the village and the airport. The municipality's transport plan lists the R-net line 356 to Haarlem, Schiphol and Amstelveen and the night service N95 to Schiphol, so check current timetables before you rely on either.
- What to bring: The main driver should carry a valid driving licence, a passport, your booking details and a credit card in their own name with a limit high enough to cover the excess hold. Whether an International Driving Permit is needed depends on where your licence was issued, so check the requirements in your booking confirmation.
Pick-Up, Drop-Off, and Refuelling at Badhoevedorp Downtown
- Returning the car: Return the car at the time and place shown in your booking confirmation, and confirm the drop-off point at collection. A key drop box for out-of-hours returns has not been confirmed, so arrange any early or late return with the supplier before you travel.
- Nearest petrol station: A station at Swammerdamstraat 2, 1171 XJ Badhoevedorp, is listed under the Gulf name, and an industry report from June 2026 says it continues to operate as a TinQ station after the Gulf branding ends. A second TinQ is listed at Sloterweg 12. Listed hours differ between sources, so confirm them on your navigation before you rely on either, refuel before you return the car, and check the fuel type on your booking confirmation first. Euro 95 (E10) and diesel are the standard grades.
- Village streets: Residential streets such as Robert Kochstraat and Zeemanlaan are designated 30 km/h roads in the municipality's traffic plan. Treat every residential street as 30 km/h unless a sign says otherwise, and give way to cyclists and moped riders going straight ahead when you turn.
- The former A9 line: The A9 motorway ran through the village from 1967 until it was diverted to the south on 10 April 2017. If a navigation system or an older map still shows the former line, follow the road signs.
- Nieuwemeerdijk: The municipality's plan describes a camera-enforced ban on heavy goods vehicles on the Nieuwemeerdijk and a peak-hour ban on cars and motorcycles. Check the signs before you use it as a short cut.
- Park and ride into Amsterdam: P+R Sloterdijk (exit S102) and P+R Bos en Lommer (exit S105 from the west) are the nearest sites on this side of the city. The rate is €6 a day off-peak and €13 for weekday arrivals before 10:00 am, and it applies only if you continue into the centre zone by public transport and pay within an hour of checking out.
- Low emission zones: Diesel cars face a low emission zone inside the A10 ring road in Amsterdam, and in Utrecht, The Hague and Arnhem. The village lies outside the ring, and petrol cars are not affected.
- Before you drive away: Complete the vehicle condition report at collection, and photograph the car on all four sides, the wheels, the windscreen and the interior. Repeat it at return so that any mark is recorded on both occasions.
