KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Paramus

  • Rent a car when you are planning to visit Paramus for a stay. You will have a limited number of times to experience a near-limitless number of sights and activities. But if you get a rental car in Paramus, you will have the convenience and time to get the most out of your adventures. You will gain a great deal of proper time planning, avoid waiting in line like in public transport, and you can also make as many stops as you wish. You will have the leisure to travel and visit any places you want. For example, with a rental car in Paramus, you can conveniently go to Mountain Side to enjoy hikes. The place is 30 miles from the city center, and you can get there in 40 minutes.
  • Renting a car at the airport is recommended because they have many rental car agencies. The car agencies are reliable and offer excellent discounts around the airport locations. Some of the popular car rental agencies you are likely to get in the airports include but are not limited to Budget, Avis, Alamo, Enterprise, Hertz, and U-Save. You will get all car rentals of your choice in these rental car agencies hassle-free. Therefore, if you land at Teterboro Airport, take advantage of the many car rental agencies and book your rental car.
  • When driving your car rental in Paramus, you should expect many cyclists to use the same line as motorists. Oftentimes, they don't adhere to the traffic lights regulations. This could be dangerous if you are not careful. Be on the lookout when approaching and overtaking them. Again, the city has several intersections that can confuse you when navigating the streets. If you are unfamiliar with the city, ensure the car rental you book is well-equipped with a navigation system.
  • Paramus is known to have heavy traffic congestion on its major roads and intersections during rush hours. You should expect long delays if you use Route 4, 330 N Route 17, and NJ 0762 during rush hours. If you want to enjoy the leisure of driving a rental car, avoid traveling during rush hours. Get to your destination before or after the rush hours. Alternatively, if you are driving a smaller rental car in Paramus, you can navigate narrow streets to avoid traffic congestion, especially in the morning and evening.
