KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in South Kingstown

  • Using a car from car rentals in South Kingstown has several benefits over solely relying on the public transit options. Booking a rental car here means you can plan your travel on your own terms. As such, renting a car offers more flexibility regarding both routes and schedules, unlike public transit options operating on fixed routes and time schedules. Old Mountain Field and South Kingstown Town Beach are some of the attractions best visited by driving. Some public transportation means also restrict the amount of luggage you can carry. Getting a ride from South Kingstown car rentals provides a way out of this.
  • Most flights to South Kingstown arrive at either Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) or Rhode Island T.F. Green International Airport (PVD). Booking a ride from the airport rental agencies is quite easy compared to taxiing to the car rentals in South Kingstown's center. When arriving through PVD, exit the baggage claim area and take the escalator and Skywalk to the Interlink Facility, where you will find several rental counters. On arrival at BOS, exit the baggage claim and proceed to the rental center Bus Stop area. Board the BOS consolidated courtesy bus here to the rental car center.

Cons:

Waiting outside before picking the car up and after dropping it off seems like a poor way to do business. I understand that in these times of COVID-19, businesses have had to make changes, but being able to wait inside for a ride seems do able.

Middletown office was great. Gave us a. I’ve car that we liked. Budget customer service was terrible after we got a flat tire on a one-way rental. Roadside assistance was not helpful and the customer service line directed us to three different rental offices in a row that couldn’t provide us with a replacement car. Ended up having to end the rental and take the train to reach our destination. With an infant, a toddler, and a family’s worth of luggage, this was a pretty unpleasant experience. Don’t think I’ll ever rent from budget again.
