When you return just add money as you go. Right now all tolls are suspended, because is Hurricane.. Unsure how long that will stay in force, but you can look for that information on their website. The suspended tolls saves us about $13 for each trip to Disney three times a month
You can't take the turnpike by plate with a rental without incurring the daily fee for tolls, whether or not you use it again. You can order a transponder and have it delivered to your house. Once you get the rental enter the plate number at the SunPass website and you are good to go. The only way the quoted post works is if the SunPass people at Turkey Lake Plaza can remove any charges incurred on the way there and transfer them to the new account.
