Cheap Van Rentals in Staten Island
Top Tips for Renting a Van in Staten Island
- Public transportation is convenient if you will be staying in urban New York City. Catching public transportation in such a large metropolitan area can be quite intimidating. At times, the subways and buses can get crowded. This is a real problem if you have children with you. Having your own Staten Island van rental is a great solution. Having a van rental will also make it possible for you to visit outlying areas like the Catskill Mountains (popular for skiing), the Mohonk Preserve (an outdoor paradise), or the Hamptons, where you can see what it's like to be rich and famous.
- There are a few airports close to Staten Island. There is the John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in Queens, the New York Stewart International Airport (SWF) in Orange County, and the New York LaGuardia Airport (LGA), also in Queens. You have the largest number of car rental agencies at JFK. There are approximately a dozen rental car brands at this airport including National, Fox, Thrifty, Dollar, and Budget. You can work with rental car companies like Empire, Alamo, Enterprise, and Easirent at SWF. If you’re landing at LGA, you can get a Staten Island Van Rental from Payless, Thrifty, Dollar, Alamo, or Enterprise, to name a few.
- When driving in Staten Island, you can turn right on red in your Staten Island van rental if it is clear and there is no sign against it. Driving and talking on the cell phone is illegal, and distracted driving can be dangerous with the amount of traffic in and around New York City. Rush hour causes traffic congestion in the morning (7 am to 9 am) when commuters are traveling to work and in the late afternoon/early evening (4 pm to 6 pm) when returning home. This is especially true around the St. George Terminal on Bay Street, where the Staten Island Ferry departs and returns.
- There are several toll roads in and around Staten Island. The one that you will likely use is the New York State Thru Highway. Other toll roads you might use include the Robert Kennedy Bridge, which connects some major boroughs. With an add-on service, you might be able to enjoy the convenience of electronic toll collection in your Staten Island van rental. Talk with your car rental agent to learn more about their toll policy.
- Book your van rental in Staten Island at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- February is typically the cheapest month to rent a van in Staten Island, with prices around $103 per day. The most expensive month is November, with average prices of $197 per day.

Freddy, Apr 2021
Pros:
The mileage on the car was excellent.Cons:
Guy at the front desk was incredibly nice when going to pick up the car. However, at drop off he was a completely different person. Picked up my rental and it had cigarette smell that increased overtime and the car said “Maintenance Required”. It drove well but he just waved his hands and said I’d be fine. Willing to give them another shot but you could tell they’re just there to collect a paycheck. Would be nice if these people cared more about the service. Especially since I brought up all those things, the response was “well what can ya do *shrug*. No compensation or anything. I guess you’re better off just going to enterprise.Dollar
