Top Tips for Hiring a Pickup Truck in Newark
- While public transportation is efficient in New Jersey, it’s always better to be away from the crowds and have the independence of Newark pickup truck hire when visiting this bustling part of the States. ‘Brick City’, as Newark is known, has some fantastic attractions and sights just waiting to be explored with the comfort of the famous American pickup truck. Whether visiting The New Jersey Performing Arts Centre, the Newark Museum of Art, or taking a highway drive into Manhattan for a day, Newark pickup truck hire provides a powerful vehicle just perfect for longer drives into the great outdoors of New York State too.
- When collecting your Newark pickup truck hire, you may have landed at the local Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR). A large airport, you will find several branches of car hire supplying great pickup truck options, such as Alamo, Budget, Avis, National, Enterprise and more. The car rental areas are based at various on-site stations, which is why the airport supplies the AirTrain Newark to get you there hassle-free. Once you have collected your pickup truck, you can reach downtown Newark in under 15min via Broad Street.
- When driving your Newark pickup truck hire, you will find standard US road laws apply. You will drive on the right-hand side of the road and your truck will be an automatic transmission. It is vital that you do not speed, and stick below the 0.08% blood alcohol allowance.

Honking is encouraged in Newark if you are passing anyone on a bicycle or skateboard.

Hire a sat-nav to find the congested routes before setting off, as you could find yourself at a standstill on some highways. The McCarter Highway and the Garden State Parkway tend to get congested, as well as the New Jersey Turnpike. You will notice that highways and major roads in Newark all use tolls. In fact, New Jersey has over 30 tolls in the area alone. The sat-nav can provide back routes to avoid them. Morning rush hour starts around 06:00 and finishes about 09:00 and afternoon rush hour starts around 15:30 and tapers off about 18:30.

Cons:
I made the reservation and paid in advance, only to find when arriving at the counter that I’ve been placed on a Do not rent ban. The staff at the counter could not tell me why or help me any further and made me call a customer service line, where I waited for 20 minutes on hold. Since I was in a time crunch, I had to walk away and rent with a different service. Why did Hertz not flag my account when I paid for my reservation in advance, instead of wasting my time when I was already ready to pick up the car? Who knows. I still have not been able to get through to their specific phone line to figure out why my account has been blocked, after calling multiple times. I last rented with Hertz a few months ago, and never received any notice about my account being blocked.2.0 Poor
Anonymous, Nov 2019
Pros:
Nothing. Hertz did not have an available car from me at the location my reservation time, even though I made AND PAID FOR the reservation in advance. The location not only ran out of cars hours before my reservation, but they did not think to even call me to tell me that they will not be able to honor my reservation. I had to commute almost two hours to reach the Hertz location. I only found out AFTER reaching the Hertz location that my reservation would not be honored. The location also refused to assist me with my dilemma. I am STILL actively trying to get my money back for a service they refused to provide.Cons:
Confirm the location will have a car when a reservation is made in advance. I made the reservation over a week in advance. There is NO REASON AT ALL for Hertz to not have a car ready for me when I arrived.One location in Newark

I’m hoping I didn’t screw up with that easy pass. I’m not sure it was open for a bridge crossing and I’m not very familiar with the whole toll and easy pass since the cashless toll system has been implemented. I could have used more info on using the easy pass. Will I get penalized?10.0 Wonderful

Getting to the rental location was difficult, no clear direction on where and how to get a pick up. Everything is on an app. and that is a pain if you phone is no working well.5.2 Fair
Beryl, Nov 2019
Cons:
Please ensure that u add additional time to your booking in the beginning itself. They charged me for 2 whole additional days for returning the car about 3 hours late. Also, the Audi Q3 is not the best option for a long drive. The car hydroplaned massively on wet road conditions in upstate NY. Seat quality and ride quality left a whole lot to be desired. Overall, I’m extremely disappointed. Wouldn’t be recommending.One location in Newark

Pros:
Good rate, good carCons:
There needs to be proactive communication from the operator of that Fox franchise that you have to call for a shuttle pickup. It is not automatic. It is only "on demand". Also the franchisee (Drivo Rent a Car) demands you present proof insurance info at time of rental or no dice! IN addition, their system is not tied into Fox's loyalty program so they can pull up rental preferences, etc.7.6 Good
