Renting a car seat but not a car?

[hmp2z]

Hi! I have a question & am hoping someone here can answer it. My brother is flying in with his 2 daughters to visit us here in Orlando. Since it's just him with the 2 girls, he doesn't want to lug a car seat into the airport, so we were wondering about renting one. I would meet him at the airport, but I don't have a car seat - is there somewhere I can rent just the car seat, but not the car? What do people do who take taxis? Are there taxis that have car seats for people with small children? That would be his other option, if I couldn't get 2 car seats & so couldn't pick him up from the airport. Thoughts?

Thank you for any help/suggestions!

When my kids were little and visited my sister she bought one at the local thrift shop for $15.00 and donated it back when we left.

There is also A Baby's Best Friend located in Orlando. We rented a stroller and pack 'n play on our last trip. They delivered to one hotel for us and picked up from another hotel. We loved not having to haul everything down with us, not to mention the abuse the items would have suffered on the plane. Their website is: http://www.abbf.com/

For the cost of renting a seat with unknown history and possible damage, you can go to Walmart and purchase a new seat. Cosco's Touriva is only around $40.

Another vote for a baby's best friend! We used them a lot when our kids were younger, and we were very impressed!
