The type of rental car you will get from one of the Paterson car rentals during your visit is entirely dependent on the reason for your visit. If you're in town for business, a small compact car is ideal because it's easy to navigate traffic and find tight parking spots. If you visit during the Christmas or New Year's holidays, you may encounter icy roads due to heavy snowfall. As a result, a powerful SUV or four-wheel drive vehicle may be the best option for navigating snowy terrain.
If you're driving through a residential or school zone, New Jersey law requires you to slow down to 35 mph. The central business district has a speed limit of 30 mph. However, the speed limit on freeways such as the New Jersey Turnpike is 65 mph. To avoid receiving a speeding ticket, keep an eye out for speed signs along the road, as the speed limits may change.
Finding parking for your rental car in Paterson is relatively easy as the city has metered on-street parking. Meter durations range from 20 minutes to 2 hours, with rates of 25 cents per 20 minutes. Alternatively, there are numerous parking lots and garages throughout the city where you can park your car safely for a small fee. 186 Ellison Street, Public Safety Garage, and 124 Van Houten Street Garage are among these garages.

Feb 2021
Pros:
Staff was great! Really appreciated all their assistance. Pick up and Drop off were easy.Cons:
We were told 3 days before our trip that there was no vehicle in the size that we needed available. We appreciated their honesty. We received a call the next day that a van became available but someone had smoked in the van and they were trying to air it out for us. The day we picked up our rental, another van had become available, which we were glad to see. However, someone had also smoked in that van too. All the seats were covered in a layer of cigarette ash. We shared with the staff that the new car smelled like smoke and was dirty. They offered to wipe down the seats, but we knew that the smell would not just evaporate with wiping down the seats. We took the van to the car wash and had to pay to have it cleaned. Even the manager at the car wash was surprised because he knows we are not smokers and couldn't believe the smell. We were taking our parents, who are older and more sensitive, on this trip. We had to purchase air fresheners to try and cover up the smell. Our whole trip we had to drive with the heat on full blast (February trip) and the windows open. Our clothes, suitcases, even food tasted like smoke from being in that car. We usually have had great experiences with Enterprise but were super disappointed by this last one.10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
I liked the location and the vehicle I rented was reasonable with gas.Cons:
The time the vehicle had to be picked up and dropped off could've been better for me. The hours of operation mattered because I had to pick up the vehicle in enough time to reach my destination and return on time.10.0 Wonderful

They have too much hidden unnecessary charges. Like tolls beware! You can’t use your own EZ pass on their cars and even without using the bill you get is too much.Most popular agency | Enterprise Rent-A-Car |
