KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Maplewood
- Using car rentals in Maplewood offers several advantages. The city's suburban nature might necessitate flexible transportation, and a rental car provides just that. Unlike relying solely on public transportation, a car offers convenience, privacy, and the freedom to explore the area at your own pace. It's also ideal for traveling with a group, carrying luggage, or reaching destinations not easily accessible by other means. Renting a car provides the autonomy and comfort to make the most of your time in Maplewood. With Maplewood car rentals, you can visit areas like the picturesque South Mountain Reservation for hiking, the vibrant Montclair Art Museum for cultural enrichment, and the historic Thomas Edison National Historical Park for a glimpse into innovation.
- When you travel to Maplewood, you have a choice of three airports for arrival: Newark Airport (EWR), LaGuardia Airport (LGA), and John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK). Upon reaching JFK, you can utilize the Air Train to reach Station C/Federal Circle and access the car rental facility. EWR's car rental service is conveniently positioned near station P3, reachable via the Air Train from Terminals A, B, or C. When you land at LGA, dedicated car rental shuttles are on hand to take you to Terminal A, where the car rental counter is situated.
- Driving car rentals in Maplewood is generally characterized by a calm and considerate style. Residents generally adhere to traffic rules, making it a respectful and predictable driving environment. While the pace is relaxed, bicycles are notable, as the city promotes cycling for both commuting and leisure. Though trucks are not excessive, they can occasionally be seen due to the suburban nature of the area. Pedestrians are typically law-abiding, with few instances of jaywalking. Common vehicles on the road range from sedans and SUVs to hybrid cars, reflecting an eco-conscious community.
- Navigating car rentals in Maplewood can pose challenges during rush hours, primarily around 7:30 am to 9 am and 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm. Traffic congestion affects major roads like Springfield Avenue, Valley Street, and the intersections near Columbia High School. These peak hours can lead to slower progress and potential delays for local commuters and visitors. Planning trips outside these times is advisable to ensure a smoother driving experience and efficient exploration of the city.

Pros:

Communication would have been better. The location I was picking up the car starting closing on weekends for covid. No one notified me, so I paid for. $20 Uber to show up to a closed business. Hertz shouldn’t had the common sense to call people who booked weekend pickups and reschedule them. Ridiculous2.0 Poor

Nov 2020
Pros:
Tamecka Dixon was the friendliest and most accommodating agent I have interacted with across ANY car rental platform. She kept her office open for 15 extra minutes as I was running late, even though it was the night before Thanksgiving. Her generosity and flexibility make her an exceptional member of Avis and I am certainly going to rent with Avis once again largely because of the stellar service, coupled with the easy check-in process and lower costs.Cons:
A more secure drop-off process would be preferred. The office is closed on Sundays, so dropping off in they key window did not feel as secure as ideal.2.0 Poor
