  • If you want to move around the city with ease, consider using Pawtucket car rentals. You will enjoy a number of benefits with car rentals in Pawtucket as compared to the public transport in the city. For instance, you can visit some of the interior top attraction sites in the city such as Old Slater Mill National Historic Landmark and Slater Memorial Park. You can have any time of luggage with you including your pet with car rentals in Pawtucket as compared to the buses, taxis, and trains which limits passengers on the type of luggage to have in a trip.
  • Visitors landing in Pawtucket consider landing at Theodore Francis Green Memorial State Airport (PVD / KPVD) which is 16 miles to the downtown. Thus, it would be better for you to rent a car at PVD which features several car rental agencies ready to serve you. For instance, you may reserve your car from Hertz, Enterprise, or Budget whose car rental desks are located at the Arrival Terminal past the security checkpoint.
  • If you are traveling as a family with car rentals in Pawtucket, ensure your car dealer gives you the restraining systems for the safety of the children. For instance, ensure your car has the booster seat or child seat and your children should be driven in the back seat unless they are 12 years and above its when they can occupy the front seat. When driving car rentals on local roads beware of the potholes which can damage your car springs if not driven with caution. When driving car rentals in Pawtucket at Broad Street or Pawtucket Avenue, always do it with caution for they are among the busiest routes where pedestrians jump onto the road without minding the oncoming vehicle.

Most roads heading to the city center are always affected by heavy traffic routes during this time.

My only issue was not being to rent the car due to my Drivers license expiring the next day the 29th. Im not sure if I was charged, I was looking forward to celebrating my 45th that weekend, Other than that the location and customer service has always been professional despite the one employee having to do all the work

Silver Springs location is remote but the personnel couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating. Very pleasant. Of course, they didn’t have the car I wanted or reserved, but were accommodating and we worked out a deal. Enjoyed the car they rented me.

I made my reservation to pick up at PVD and when I arrived, it was changed to a downtown Providence location. Costed me an additional $100 in airport fees, taxes, tourism fees. I will NEVER rent from Hertz again

HUGE PROBLEM. When you rent a car in Providence, it may not be at airport. Our rental thru you was in downtown Providence, NOT PVD. Agent said it happens a lot. Agent solved problem but rental was $100 more.
