KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Braintree
- People considering car rentals in Braintree can't go wrong. Braintree is surrounded by suburbs beyond where the subway ends, such as Medford, Watertown, Newton, and Dorchester. Braintree car rentals also make it possible to explore fascinating nearby cities and towns in Massachusetts, such as Salem, Plymouth, and Cape Cod. Whether you are in Braintree for business or pleasure, car rentals in Braintree give people the freedom to get to appointments or explore the city and state according to their own schedule.
- The Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) is located less than 15 miles north of Braintree, making it an ideal location for renting a car, whether you’ve just landed at BOS or whether you are accessing the Rental Car Center at BOS from Braintree. If you have just landed at BOS, go to the arrivals curb of your terminal where you can catch a complimentary blue and white shuttle bus to the RCC approximately every 5 to 6 minutes. If you are driving to the RCC, it is easily accessible from Braintree off the I-90. The RCC is housed in a four-story parking garage, giving you many conveniently accessible options.
- Because Braintree is just outside Boston, drivers tend to be a bit more aggressive than elsewhere in the country. So, when you need to merge onto a road or highway or when you are trying to grab a parking spot, be confident, but not reckless. Furthermore, Braintree and the surrounding areas have many toll roads and bridges, some of which accept E-ZPass as the only means of payment. For this reason, it is worth considering adding a Toll Pay option to your car rental agreement.
- People looking to secure car rentals in Braintree need to be aware of seasonal traffic problems virtually throughout the year. In winter, is important to beware of snowy and icy weather and to make sure that your car has working windshield wipers and a snow brush and ice scraper before you leave the lot. As the weather warms up, traffic gets particularly congested starting on Thursdays as people head out of town toward Cape Cod and New Hampshire. Throughout the year, be aware of congested event traffic caused by nearby Gillette Stadium, which hosts concerts, other events, and the New England Patriots when they play their home games.
- Book your car hire in Braintree at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Standard hire cars in Braintree are around 25% cheaper than other car types, on average

Pros:
Enterprise is consistently great on service, easy rental experience, and competitively priced.Cons:
My compact / economy car (35K miles) had a smoker previously and although the car was cleaned, when the car was parked in the sun, the smoke odors came through. There were burn marks on the seats. I hope Enterprise will not re-rent smoking cars as this is really unpleasant but also a safety hazard.10,0 Wonderful
