KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Caldwell

  • Caldwell is a small city that is replete with natural wonders and outdoor activities. Renting cheap car rentals in Caldwell can make your trip even more enjoyable. If you have rented a car, you will not have to depend on public transport schedules, and you can take a detour or change your plans on a whim. There are several tourist spots in and around Caldwell that are not easily accessible by public transportation, such as Indian Creek Plaza, Whittenberger Park, and Wine Country. Caldwell car rentals can take you to these places quickly and comfortably.
  • The closest airport to Caldwell is the Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field Airport (BOI), which is approximately 29 miles away. The Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field Airport (BOI) has rental car companies located in the terminal building on the lower level near baggage claim. The rental car companies available at BOI include Avis, Budget, Alamo, Enterprise, Hertz, National, and Thrifty. There is no airport shuttle to the car rental offices, but they are within walking distance of the terminal building. You will need to present a valid license when picking up Caldwell car rentals at BOI.
  • There are a few things to keep in mind for a safe and relaxed experience when driving cheap car rentals in Caldwell. Caldwell is close to the mountains, and it is not uncommon to see wildlife, particularly deer, on the roads. You should therefore be extra cautious while driving at night or on rural roads. The city also has many rural areas, and it is common to encounter farm vehicles like tractors and combines on the roads. Be patient and yield to them when you see them.
  • There are generally very few difficulties when driving cheap car rentals in Caldwell. The traffic is not heavy and there are few congested areas within the city. However, like any other city, there may be specific times of the day when traffic is heavier. Rush hour traffic is usually between 7:00 am-9:00 am and 4:00 pm-6:00 pm on weekdays. During these times, the main roads of Caldwell such as Cleveland Boulevard, Main Street, and 10th Avenue may experience heavier traffic. In addition, winter driving can occasionally be difficult in Caldwell due to snow and ice on the roads. However, snow removal and road maintenance are usually efficient and effective, so road conditions are typically cleared up quickly.

When I went to go pick up the seven seat van they didn’t have it. All they could offer me is a six seat Jeep. As I was driving it, I noticed how dirty it was. There was white sticky in the center console. I got about two miles away and the windshield wiper fluid light came on. I filled it up and the next day on the road the light came on again. It also would only spray out the passenger side. The man helping me at Enterprise was nice and did his best to help me when I picked up the car but it was a pretty bum deal overall.

We loved the car, the ease of transport and the overall cost of the car. The owner was great at helping with the rental process.

We thought the car could have been cleaned a little better. The inside of the car looked as if it hadn't been vacuumed.
