Frequently asked questions

Can I rent a car from John F. Kennedy Intl. Airport (JFK)?
Yes, and you have plenty of choice. After you've disembarked and grabbed your bags, head on over to the rental car centre at Federal Circle Station. Here you can arrange your ride with reputable companies like Avis, Enterprise and Budget. If you're after more options, see what's available with Thrifty and Hertz.
What happens if I need to cancel my Paterson car reservation?
No worries! If you're able to cancel your prepaid booking more than six hours ahead of pickup, you'll most likely receive a complete refund. Be sure to scan the rental policy as there are some exclusions. Visit our Customer Service Portal for more info.
What types of cars can I rent in Paterson?
Busy city streets and tight parking spots are no bother for an economy car — the most commonly booked type of rental in Paterson. Get behind the wheel of one of these and drive around traffic like a dream. Affordable, reliable and good on gas, these small rides pack a punch. But Paterson can be explored in almost any type of rental you like. Compacts, SUVs and full-size vehicles are among your options.
Where can I go on a road trip from Paterson?
Paterson has plenty to keep you on the move, but don't restrict yourself to one place. Organise a set of wheels and take to the road to see what's in the surrounding area. Here are some places to consider:

  • Hartford is roughly 153 kilometres from Paterson. Popular tourist spots like Mark Twain House & Museum deserve to be at the top of your list here.
  • Your next pit stop? Albany, which is around 193 kilometres away. The Egg is one local hot spot you shouldn't miss.
  • Plymouth Rock is around 322 kilometres from Paterson and is one of the region's most scenic nature spots. Stretch your legs and enjoy the fresh air.

How do I find the best car rental deals in Paterson with Expedia?

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Paterson?
You need to be at least 21. But there are a few age-related requirements you should know about before you book your wheels in Paterson. If you're a young motorist, many rental outlets will charge an additional daily fee and limit the sorts of vehicles you're able to rent. The precise surcharge, and which age range it applies to, differs between companies. Take the time to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Paterson?
Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — a current driver's licence and credit card. If you decide to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up the keys.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Paterson?
Yes, and you'll find your perfect ride on our long-term car rental deals page. Simply enter your trip dates and we'll show you incredible offers from various leading suppliers.
Where can I find a Paterson car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so be prepared to do a bit of research. Found a Paterson outlet that does rent to under 25s? Great! Just bear in mind that some companies charge additional fees to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in should have all the details you need.
