KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Centereach

  • There are several advantages to renting a car in Centereach, NY. First, public transportation is limited in the area, so renting a car gives you the freedom and flexibility to explore the city and beyond at your own pace. You won't have to depend on buses or trains, which can be inconvenient and may not take you directly to your desired destination. For example, there are several beautiful beaches in the area, including Lake Ronkonkoma and Smith Point County Park. If you rent a car, you can easily visit these beaches and enjoy a day of swimming, sunbathing, and beach activities.
  • New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) is the gateway to many cities, including Centereach. The car-rental offices at the airport are located at the Federal Circle Station, which is accessible from the main terminals via the AirTrain. The AirTrain is a 24-hour service that connects all the airport terminals to the rental-car station. To get to the rental-car station, follow the "AirTrain" signs and take the AirTrain to Federal Circle Station. From there, you can use the escalators or the elevator to go down to the rental-car station.
  • When you’re driving cheap car rentals in Centereach, there are a few things you should keep in mind. The good news is that locals tend to be fairly respectful of the driving laws. Speed limits are generally followed, and there’s a relatively low incidence of aggressive driving. That being said, it's important to stay vigilant for any unexpected actions by other drivers, as distracted driving can be a problem in any city. There are some bicycle lanes in Centereach, but these are not particularly extensive, so it's important to keep an eye out for cyclists on the road.

the drop off location at Reagan airport was awful. No clear directions on how to return the car.....the return location was a maze...and without the kind help from some employees, it would have been impossible to find. All that woud be required is some clear and visible signs.

Pros:

Drop off is fast and smooth, car is in good condition.

Cons:

There is no enforcement of mask wearing at the Hertz locations for customers, which is quite uncomfortable during this time.

Horrible! I never ended up using them because the care I booked was never available at that site or any site on Long Island. I was left stranded hours before I had to take my son to college. Also when I called to let them know I was on my way to pick up the vehicle I was placed on hold for over 45 minutes. I am glad called and waited on the line because things would’ve been much worse had I hang up. Horrible service to put it mildly.

The experience with Hertz was great! The staff helped us get a bigger vehicle when we showed up and even arranged for us to have the vehicle for an extra day. Would recommend working with the folks at Hertz on Middle Country Rd.
