KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Needham

  • For visitors who want to take advantage of everything Needham has to offer, renting a car is a very practical transportation option. When you use car rentals in Needham, you have total control over your schedule and may choose the best routes for traversing the area. Renting a car provides unrivaled flexibility in comparison to relying on the predetermined routes and departure times of public transportation. Utilizing Needham car rentals makes it significantly easier to travel to well-known sites like Cutler Park and Echo Bridge.
  • The closest major airport to Needham that provides automobile rental services is Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), which is only 20 miles from the city center. The BOS airport has many car rental firms on-site, and they are conveniently located in the arrivals terminal. These companies include Hertz, Avis, and Budget, among others. Renters who prefer to use Needham car rentals can benefit from a number of advantages by picking up their rental vehicle at BOS Airport.

In the Needham Central Business District, reckless bicycle and pedestrian crossings of the roadways are a common occurrence, so you are urged to drive carefully.

It’s miserable service. They said there was no minivan which I rent and got confirmed. Even workers said no sorry and no explanation. Strongly recommend no use this service. Worst service I got. Even I wondered racism there. So disappointing.

Cons:

Engine light came on day two and because most Hertz locations are closed or have modified hours, I stuck with car that had something wrong with it. Then, they over charge me for rental.
