Top Tips for Renting a Van in Providence
- Reserving Providence van rentals can give you some advantages, whether you’re planning a vacation or a road trip. Rental vans are durable for road trips and can handle most conditions imaginable. In addition, van rentals offer ergonomic cabin features that can make all the difference if you’re on a road trip. You get more space for your luggage, traveling gear, and other essentials. A standard car can seat a maximum of five passengers, but vans can accommodate up to 15 people. This ample space allows you to bring family members, friends, and travelers on board when you visit Providence. With rental vans, you’ll have the flexibility to travel to Roger Williams Park Zoo, WaterFire, and Waterplace Park.
- If you’re flying to Providence, you’ll most likely arrive at Green International Airport. You can find the car-rental center at the airport’s InterLink facility. You can take the skywalk from the airport terminal to the car-rental center using the elevated walkways with moving sidewalks. The car-rental center is host to several car-rental agencies, including Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dolla, Enterprise, National, Payless, and Hertz. The car-rental agencies offer a wide selection of van rentals for you to choose from. Since so many airport travelers require van rental services at the airport, consider making early reservations to avoid any long waits.
- Observing the city’s driving laws when driving Providence van rentals is a good idea. If you follow the laws, you can safely navigate the rental van without getting in trouble. To begin, all drivers and passengers must always have seatbelts on. Children under eight should be seated in rear-facing child seats. All drivers must stop for buses with red flashing lights or stop signs. All van drivers must yield to cyclists and avoid crossing over into bicycle lanes when preparing to turn. You can turn right on most red lights, but you have to come to a full stop first and check the traffic before turning. If you stop at a four-way stop, always yield to the vehicles that get to the stop before you. The maximum speed limit on interstate highways is usually 70 mph, but be aware of the 5-mph speed reduction when you drive at night.
- Frustration can be common during the morning rush hour from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and the afternoon rush between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. Driving during rush hour always increases the risk of an accident. If you can avoid driving during these hours, you’ll be much better off. However, if you must drive during these hours, avoid driving on 1-95, the 6/10 connector, Memorial Boulevard, College Street, and Atwells Avenue. Alternate routes are highly recommended if you must drive in Providence during rush hour. It also helps to listen to local traffic reports to stay informed about the road situation.

Sep 2019
Cons:
I went to pick up the car and was told that I needed a major credit card. I didn’t have one and they said I would need to leave a deposit (which was fine) and they would run my credit. My credit score wasn’t good enough apparently and that was basically the end of the transaction. Stranded.2.0 Poor
May 2019
Pros:
Staff was slightly apologetic about not having my requested vehicle.Cons:
I showed up on the day of pickup, and they didn't have my car?! All they had was mini-vans, when I had reserved a compact/mid-size. I ended up having to get a last minute rental from another company.2.0 Poor
Sep 2018
Cons:
I returned the car one full day earlier than expected and I was still charged for the full three days (even though I had only had the car rented for two). I was told I'd get a call about my refund and, to date, haven't heard from Avis -- despite calling them countless times. Never again.8.0 Very good

Pros:
Honored rental price/cost from Kayak.....got me in Auto that was satisfactory.Cons:
Reservation was cancelled without my notification......Avis couldn't honor Kayak price for SUV/large rental. I was quite upset!4.0 Mediocre
Aug 2017
Pros:
The car itself was fine, although the back seat needed cleaning. And it was ready at the arranged time.Cons:
The agency did not provide any kind of map, and this was the first time I've experienced that in many years with many car rentals from other companies. The local person was not familiar with local roads to help me get started on the trip. He was not as helpful or polite as I'd expect. Another issue is that I was headed to Massachusetts and planned to take the toll road, and the agent in Rhode Island did not know - or at least did not tell me - of the major change in toll collection there. Since it is not possible to pay cash on I 90, I will be receiving a bill for those tolls, plus additions from Avis and possibly fines. When I dropped the car off in Chicago, the office desk had handouts explaining their e-toll fees. But nothing of the sort was offered in RI where it would have actually helped. I will not rent from Avis again, or Budget, which seems to have merged with it.Car rental locations in or near Providence
