KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Westfield

  • Car rentals in Westfield, NJ, can offer several advantages, especially if you want to explore the area or have specific transportation needs. First is the freedom to move around at your own pace, without relying on public transportation schedules or ride-share services. Second is the flexibility in your travel plans. You can visit multiple places in a single day, change your itinerary on the go, and take detours as you wish. Thirdly, in a Westfield car rental, you can explore remote attractions inaccessible by public transportation, such as Watchung Reservation, Rahway River Park, and Sourland Mountain Preserve.
  • The nearest major airport to Westfield, NJ, is Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), approximately 10 miles east of Westfield. The facility is the most convenient option for visitors arriving by air to pick up their car rentals in Westfield. The car rental facility is conveniently located and accessible via a shuttle from the terminals. Some major car rental companies operating at EWR include Avis, Budget, Hertz, Enterprise, National, and Alamo.
  • Westfield strongly emphasizes pedestrian safety. Drivers are expected to yield to pedestrians at crosswalks and be cautious in areas with heavy foot traffic. Also, the area has designated bike lanes and promotes cycling. Be mindful of cyclists when driving your Westfield car rental and provide them with adequate space when sharing the road. Some older residential areas might have narrower roads, especially in historic parts of the town. Therefore, while driving car rentals in Westfield on narrower roads, be cautious and yield to oncoming traffic when necessary.
  • Like many suburban areas, Westfield, NJ, can experience road congestion during certain times of the day, particularly during peak commuting hours. Traffic jams usually occur during the morning rush hours (7:00 am and 9:00 am) as residents head to work, school, or other destinations, and in the evening (4:30 pm and 6:30 pm) as people drive back home. If you are visiting during winter, remember that driving a Westfield car rental requires extra caution and preparedness due to potentially hazardous weather conditions. Consider using winter tires, which provide better traction in cold and slippery conditions.
  • Compact hire cars in Westfield are around 65% cheaper than other car types, on average

If you're traveling with a group or family, you'll want a car that can comfortably accommodate everyone and their luggage. An SUV or a minivan might be suitable in such cases. Furthermore, Westfield's roads can include narrow streets, so a compact or mid-size car might be ideal for easy maneuvering and parking. Lastly, if you're environmentally conscious, consider electric or hybrid vehicles, which can be a sustainable choice for city and suburban driving.

  • What’s the speed limit when driving a car rental in Westfield, New Jersey?

    It's important to pay attention to posted speed limit signs and follow the local regulations when driving car rentals in Westfield. In residential neighborhoods and areas with homes and schools, the speed limit is typically 25 mph, unless otherwise posted. Conversely, the speed limit increases to 35–45 mph on main roads and arterial streets. Moreover, if you're driving your Westfield car rental on highways or freeways, the speed limit is generally higher, ranging from 55 to 65 mph.

  • Where are the best places to park car rentals in Westfield, New Jersey?

    Westfield is a suburban town, and parking availability can vary. Although many areas of Westfield offer street parking, be sure to read and follow the posted parking signs and regulations. Municipal parking lots in Westfield usually charge hourly or daily fees. The hourly rates can vary, but they might range from $1 to $2 per hour. Some lots might offer discounts for more extended stays. Remember that some parking spots might have time limits, after which you'll need to move your car or pay for additional time.

Pros:

Nothing, the agent ran out of cars so even though you took my money and reserved a car the agent was unable to provide any vehicle and as such ruined my vacation!!! I was left with MO vehicle

Cons:

You should never take a reservation if you can’t guarantee a vehicle, my vacation was ruined

Ridhima, Nov 2020

KAYAK

Pros:

Tamecka Dixon was the friendliest and most accommodating agent I have interacted with across ANY car rental platform. She kept her office open for 15 extra minutes as I was running late, even though it was the night before Thanksgiving. Her generosity and flexibility make her an exceptional member of Avis and I am certainly going to rent with Avis once again largely because of the stellar service, coupled with the easy check-in process and lower costs.

Cons:

A more secure drop-off process would be preferred. The office is closed on Sundays, so dropping off in they key window did not feel as secure as ideal.

Nothing at all. EVERYTIME there is a problem, with any location. Staff is extremely rude & nasty. Nobody knows what’s going on between branch locations and corporate . This company is so unprofessional and unorganized!
