KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Secaucus

  • Renting a cheap car rental in Secaucus offers flexibility and convenience. Unlike public transportation such as buses and trains, a car rental in Secaucus allows you to explore your destinations at your own pace. This is particularly advantageous when visiting attractions like Liberty State Park and the Meadowlands Sports Complex, which can be accessed conveniently by car. Additionally, a Secaucus car rental makes trips to New York City and its neighboring areas easy, granting access to cultural landmarks and scenic spots that public transportation might not cover efficiently.
  • The closest international airport to Secaucus, New Jersey, is Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR). It is located approximately 10 miles southeast of Secaucus. It is therefore the most likely destination airport for most travelers flying into Secaucus. To rent a car at EWR, you will move to any of the on-site rental car offices located in the designated Rental Car Center. A free airtrain connects all terminals to the Rental Car Center. Some of the major car rental agencies available at EWR include Hertz, Avis, Budget, and Enterprise.
  • To enjoy your cheap car rentals in Secaucus, it's important to familiarize yourself with some of the common traffic challenges you are likely to face. First, jaywalking is prevalent, particularly near busy intersections and shopping areas like Plaza Center. Secondly, bicyclists often enter the road without prior warning, so staying vigilant when driving your car rental in Secaucus is crucial. To drive safely, you should always anticipate the possibility of pedestrians and cyclists crossing unexpectedly, maintain a reasonable driving speed, especially in areas with high foot traffic, stay cautious at crosswalks, and be prepared to yield when necessary.
  • Most of the major difficulties when driving your cheap car rentals in Secaucus are caused by traffic congestion and adverse weather conditions. For instance, during rush hour in Secaucus, traffic congestion commonly affects major roads like Route 3 and I-95, leading to delays. Winter can also be challenging due to potential snowfall, which impacts road conditions. Nearby cities like New York City can also affect traffic patterns. Planning ahead and avoiding peak hours can help navigate these difficulties.
  • Compact hire cars in Secaucus are around 49% cheaper than other car types, on average

Highways like Route 3 and the New Jersey Turnpike have higher speed limits, typically around 55–65 mph. In the business centers and downtown areas, speed limits might be lower, around 25–35 mph, to accommodate heavier traffic and pedestrians. Since the city takes safety seriously, speed cameras are mounted along busier routes like Paterson Plank Road and Meadowlands Parkway to deter speeding.

  • Where are the best places to park a car rental in Secaucus?

    To minimize your parking costs for your car rentals in Secaucus, it's recommended to prioritize hotels with free on-site parking. If that's not an option, consider using public metered parking.

Pros:

Good price unlimited miles. East pick up drop off service from Staff was awesome

Cons:

Windshield whipper fluid, any would be nice. I drove through a winter storm through the Catskills for 20 miles to get to a gas station to clean my windshield and buy fluid. Scariest moment I’ve had driving, like low fluid I get. This was bone dry note to sell probably the economy wasn’t the best choice to rent for the snow
