KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in North Kingstown
- Renting a car from any of the car rentals in North Kingstown offers unmatched flexibility and convenience. Unlike public transport options like buses or trains, a rented car from the North Kingstown car rentals allows you to explore the city on your schedule. It's especially advantageous for reaching destinations outside the town, such as Newport's Cliff Walk and its historic mansions, Jamestown's Beavertail State Park, or Narragansett's scenic beaches. With a rented car, you can efficiently navigate these attractions, which might be less accessible via public transport. Additionally, if you're interested in exploring the area's rich maritime heritage or enjoying leisurely drives along the coastal routes, a rental car becomes an ideal choice.
- Travelers flying to North Kingstown use Logan Intl Airport (BOS), New Bedford Regional Airport (EWB), or Providence T.F. Green Airport (PVD) as their destination airport. If you intend to rent a car at BOS, please note that the car rental services can be accessed in the Rental Car Center. The rental car center is easily accessible by a free airport shuttle from each terminal. At EWB, car rental services are accessed at the arrivals terminal near the baggage claim area. PVD has an adjacent rental car garage accessible via a courtesy shuttle from the arrival terminal.
- Jaywalking and bicyclists are among the key things you need to be aware of before you can rent your car from the cheap car rentals in North Kingstown. It's important to be aware of common jaywalking areas, notably near busy intersections and downtown zones. Bicyclists might enter the road unexpectedly, especially in residential and commercial areas. To drive attentively and avoid accidents, always obey traffic signals, stay cautious near crosswalks, and maintain a reasonable speed. Be prepared for sudden pedestrian or cyclist movements, and anticipate their actions. Stay vigilant, minimize distractions, and prioritize the safety of all road users by giving them ample space and time to navigate the streets safely.
- Rush hour traffic snarl-ups are prominent driving challenges when using a rented car from North Kingstown car rentals. These snarl-ups typically occur between 7 am and 9 am and 4:30 pm and 6:30 pm, heavily impacting routes 1, 4, and 102 with heightened congestion. The winter season poses additional difficulties due to possible snow accumulation affecting road conditions. Key routes like Route 1 and local streets demand increased vigilance. Staying updated on weather and road conditions during winter is therefore recommended.

Cons:
Waiting outside before picking the car up and after dropping it off seems like a poor way to do business. I understand that in these times of COVID-19, businesses have had to make changes, but being able to wait inside for a ride seems do able.6,8 Okay

Pros:
Staff was friendly, helpful and proactive. Thumbs up for this crew working at this location.Cons:
I understand about not letting people go inside due to pandemic issues. But please find a way to accommodate customers while waiting outside without having to be exposed to sun and rain. There must be a better way to operate. I also fell bad for these young staff working under these poor conditions. This is purely a top management responsibility.2,0 Poor

Pros:
I had a reservation for 6pm. I called to let them know I was on my way. They said we close at 6pm. I said how was I able to make a reservation for 6pm of you close at 6pm. He said "how far are you?" I will wait, When we got there we called, no answer and the door was locked.Cons:
If he was nor planning on waiting for us then he should have said that on the phone and not made us waste or time.10,0 Wonderful
