KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in North Providence
- Car rentals in North Providence, RI, provide the convenience of having a vehicle at your disposal whenever needed. This can be especially useful for tourists exploring the area or residents who don't own a car. Still, renting a car provides you with a private and personal space. You can have private conversations, store your belongings securely, and enjoy privacy that public transportation cannot offer. Most importantly, a car rental allows you to visit hidden gems not easily accessible by buses or trains, such as Waterplace Park and Riverwalk, and Roger Williams Park.
- North Providence, Rhode Island, does not have its own airport. Visitors to North Providence use T.F. Theodore Francis Green Memorial State Airport (PVD), the primary airport serving the Providence metropolitan area, including North Providence. Major car rental companies like Enterprise, Budget, National, and Dollar serve PVD. The car rental center is adjacent to the terminal building and is accessible via a short walk or shuttle bus ride. It's a good practice to make a reservation with your preferred rental car company in advance to ensure availability and a smooth rental experience.
- When driving car rentals in North Providence, consider that roundabouts are becoming more common in Rhode Island, and drivers are generally accustomed to using them. Pay attention to traffic signs and yield the right-of-way to vehicles already in the roundabout. Aside from that, in some residential areas, you might come across four-way stop intersections. Remember that the vehicle that arrives first or the one to the right usually has the right-of-way. Furthermore, be aware of bicyclists and pedestrians, especially in areas with bike lanes and pedestrian-friendly zones. Rhode Island encourages eco-friendly modes of transportation.
- While North Providence may not have the same level of traffic as larger cities, it's part of the Greater Providence metropolitan area, and congestion can occur on several roadways. Rush hour starts around 7 am and lasts until around 9 am as commuters head into Providence and other employment centers. On the other hand, the evening rush hour usually begins around 4:30 pm and can extend until 6:30 pm or later, as commuters head home from work. Consider skirting around Interstate 95 (I-95) and Route 146, as they are notorious for traffic congestion.

Pros:

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
Aug 2017
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.Enterprise Rent-A-Car

Pros:
Kayak kind of messed me up, by giving me a great deal on a rental car for a location OTHER THAN the airport where I was landing. I would have had to take a taxi into town to get the car. There is no reason for this confusion on the website. Hertz did a good job of getting me into the same car at the airport, only charging me the extra airport taxes. Nice job, Hertz. Kayak can do better.Car rental locations in or near North Providence
