KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Fairfield

  • There are a lot of places you can visit in Fairfield and renting a car from car rentals in Fairfield gives you the flexibility to go to all areas including the ones which are farther from the center. You can drive to Lake Mohegan Recreation Area which is a pet-friendly area, where you can go hiking if you prefer.  If you are looking to tan at the beach, you can drive to the Jenning, Sasco or the Penfield Beach all located in Fairfield. Climbers can drive to Rock Climb Fairfield found in the Mill Plain Building.
  • Your flexibility when traveling to various locations in the city is increased by reserving the cheap car rentals in Fairfield. To rent a car from one of the Fairfield car rentals, you must be at least 25 years old. The minimum age requirement for customers looking to rent a luxury car is higher at several city car rental firms. On the other hand, certain rental car agencies permit customers between the ages of 21 and 24 to rent a vehicle, but they must pay an underage cost. You must bring a major credit or debit card and a current driver's license when picking up your car. The license and the card must both be in your name.
  • Travelers who fly to Fairfield mostly arrive at Westchester County Airport which is 40min away from Fairfield. You can conveniently find car rentals in Fairfield at the airport on arrival with the car rental agencies located near the main terminal. Fairfield car rentals that you will find at the airport are Alamo, Budget, Avis, Hertz, National and Enterprise. Since car rentals in Fairfield are in the airport, travelers have the convenience of driving from the airport with a car thus saving time.
  • You must be aware of the roads in Fairfield where you will have to pay tolls when operating a rental car. Using these toll roads has the benefit of allowing you to avoid the high traffic that is frequent on most roads, especially in the morning and evening. Interstate 895 (I-895) and Interstate 695 (I-695) are a couple of the well-traveled toll routes in Fairfield. You will need to use electronic payment for the road, with the exception of a small number of toll booths on these routes that accept cash payments.
  • You must follow Fairfield's seat regulations if your child is riding shotgun in your rental car. These regulations state that any youngster under the age of five or under 40 pounds must always travel in an authorized restraint system. You can use an infant seat, a child car seat, or a booster seat, depending on the specific age of your child. These gadgets are easily accessible from any of the cheap car rentals in Fairfield. However, keep in mind that each of these unique child facilities will cost extra.
  • As you drive in Fairfield it is best to maintain the speed limits because of the cyclists and pedestrians crossing the street. Some roads have potholes making it difficult for new drivers who are not familiar with these routes, thus keeping distance and driving in at a slow speed is recommended.
  • The most difficult aspect of driving in the Fairfield area is the narrow roads. Because the roads are narrow, they cannot accommodate many cars at once. Consequently, traffic jams are common during the early morning hours of 7:00 am to 9:00 am, and late afternoon hours of 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm as people leave their homes to work and schools in the morning and back in the evening.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Fairfield?

    Car rentals in Fairfield offer a large selection of cars. A compact car is the most practical option because the majority of the roads in Fairfield are congested and narrow, and there is often heavy traffic at different times of the day. Compact vehicles feature smaller engines, so you will also spend less on gas. Smaller cars typically get superior gas mileage. Small cars are also simple to parallel park and navigate on confined one-way streets sparing you the inconveniences associated with parking lots, highways, and congested streets.

  • Will I pay a congestion fee when driving a rental car in Fairfield?

    Rental cars in Fairfield are liable to paying a congestion charge just like any other vehicle. Therefore, you must be ready to pay the fee whenever you drive your rental car into the city's congestion charge zone.

  • What is the speed limit in Fairfield?

    The maximum speed limit in urban areas and on 2-lane undivided roads is 55 mph. Drivers are expected to maintain 65 mph on multilane roads. Business and residential areas have a speed limit of 25 mph to ensure that drivers maintain their focus on the road signs within these areas. A 5 mph speed limit is established at intersections, alleys, and rail-road crossings, because visibility is very limited.

  • How convenient is it to rent an electric car in Fairfield?

    Yes. While visiting Fairfield, you may easily rent an electric car thanks to the city's extensive network of EV charging stations. You may quickly charge your rental electric car at locations such as Tesla SuperCharge and Electric Vehicle Charging Station. All the major Fairfield car rentals avail electric car at their various car rental locations.

  • Where are the best places to park in Fairfield?

    You can park at the day parking at the Southport train stations, the Fairfield Center, the Trinity Church Lot, and Mill Plain Train Station Lot. The Mill Plain Lot has one EV charging station parking space available for train station customers only. Customers who park in the charging point area are required to display a Fairfield Train Station parking pass or face a parking fee. On weekends, and federal holidays, parking charges do not apply.  Fees for day parking are paid at the kiosk located to the West of the Station House or via PassPort parking mobile app. You can also park at the Pearl Street Garage, Salvio Street Parking Garage, or Downtown Parking Garage at city of Pleasant Hill.

This location gave a dented, dirty car. Lots of candy, half drunken tea bottle and paper bowl with food in it laying on floor in backseat. Very rude customer service telling me I was lucky they were open when I showed up at 3:05 for a 3:00 reservation. Yelled at me as I was taking pictures of vehicles condition. Do not rent from them if you can help it.
