Important information about Waltham car rentals

How do I get from Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) to the rental car center?

Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) is the major airport near Waltham where you’ll likely land if you’re in the city for business or vacation. To get around the city swiftly and smoothly, consider renting a car from one of the car-rental agencies located at the airport. You can use Hertz, Avis, Enterprise, Budget, Alamo, or Thrifty car-rental companies for an affordable price. To reserve the car, you’ll need to visit the car-rental counter located on the lower level of the main terminal. After making a reservation, you’ll pick up the car keys and head to the car pick-up area located at 15 Transportation Way. To get to this place, you can use a free airport shuttle, which will drop you off at the blue and white buses by the curb close to the rental-car parking lot.

What documentation do I need to rent a car in Waltham?

Every Waltham car-rental company requires a minimum age of 21 to rent a car. You must have a current driver's license in your name, which is part of the paperwork that you’ll need to rent the car. The driver's license must be current both at the time you rent the car and for the duration of your rental. Your driver's license, in addition to a credit or debit card, are also required to reserve the car. Like the driver’s license, the card should also be in your name. These are the only payment methods accepted by Waltham car rental companies at the car-rental desks. If you are a foreign driver, you must provide your passport, together with your driver's license and a credit or debit card. In some situations, like if you have a non-English-language driver’s license, you might be required to obtain an International Driving Permit in addition to your passport.

What driving laws should I know about in Waltham?

Make sure that you’re always driving on the right side of the road when in your rental car on any Waltham road; the only exception might be if you’re overtaking a slower-driving car. Observe the child-seating laws if you're taking your kids to the city. These laws require that all children under the age of one always ride in rear-facing seats. You must make sure that children between the ages of one and eight are secured in a functioning child-seating device. This child-restraint system might be a booster seat, a child car seat, or an infant seat. The seat-belt laws are related to the child-seating laws. Per these seat-belt laws, the driver and any passengers in the vehicle’s front seats are required to wear seat belts at all times. Back-seat adult passengers may ride without seat belts if they wish. Regardless of front or back seat, youngsters under the age of 17 must always be buckled in.

Can I drive to other states, regions, or countries with a rental car from Waltham?

Yes. Think about using car rentals with the fewest restrictions if you want to go from Waltham to other US places or international locations. All Waltham car rentals offer one-way rentals, so you can return your car to a different location without paying any extra fees. If you're going from Waltham to Newton, for instance, you can take back your rental car to one of the company’s car-rental locations in Newton. Keep in mind that there will be an additional fee for crossing the border with Waltham car rentals. Most car-rental agencies in Waltham place restrictions on rental customers for the type of car that’s allowed to go outside the city to other states or countries. For example, most car-rental companies restrict luxury and sports cars from traveling outside Waltham to other states or nations.
