Since Wakefield is a suburban town with various local roads, compact or midsize car rentals in Wakefield are generally a good choice. These cars are easier to maneuver through city streets and find parking in residential areas. If you're visiting during the winter months, consider renting a car with all-wheel drive or four-wheel drive to handle potential snowy or icy conditions. Depending on your travel plans, ensure the rental car has enough storage space for your luggage and any items you plan to bring along. If your trip is for a romantic getaway, a luxury car can be a great choice.
In residential neighborhoods and areas with homes and businesses, the speed limit is typically 25 mph unless otherwise posted. Speed limits in school zones are usually reduced during school hours, typically to 20 mph or lower. On main roads and arterial streets that are not highways, the speed limit is usually 30 to 35 mph, depending on the specific road and local regulations. On highways and major roads outside of residential and school zones, the speed limit is typically 45 mph or higher, depending on the specific road and posted signage.
A great feature of parking in the center of Wakefield is that there are some free parking lots you can choose from. The City of Wakefield Municipal Lot at 98 Smith Street offers free parking to explore the downtown area. You can also park in the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority lot for around $6 per day on weekdays and around $2 per day on weekends.

Pros:
Staff at pick up was friendly and helpfulCons:
Staff at drop off attempted to indicate I had not picked the car up with 1/2 tank of gas and tried to make me go away to fill it when I returned it 3/4 full. I had a flight to catch and drop off was unnecessarily delaying.10,0 Wonderful

Pros:
the car was clean and the people were friendly enoughCons:
I reserved a full sized vehicle because I am moving. I reserved in advance because I had a strict schedule and flights to catch. I was charged the full price even though I got a mid-sized sedan it was more than 5 hours late!8,8 Very Good

Pros:
Comparatively speedy service at an out-of-the-way location which had small but friendly staff. When I returned the car, I asked for and received a ride to commuter rail station so that I did not have to walk on icy sidewalks.2 locations in Wakefield

Pros:
Yes, except it was difficult to find them. Drove around the parking lot of the hotel and didn't see their office. Finally went into the hotel lobby and was told where they were in the building.Cons:
The car I picked up had not been cleaned...it was filthy. I was told that if I could get it detailed for $20-30 that they would reimburse me for it. It just seemed unacceptable to give me a car that had not been cleaned since the last renter. Good thing I had sanitizing wipes with me that I used on all the surfaces I was using. Never have I rented a car that was filthy before.3,2 Poor
