The decision of when to take a van out for a weekend trip is a tough one for many. The best thing to do when it comes to van rentals in Rhode Island is to plan ahead for the best time of year. The month of April is prime time for the area. The weather is usually nice, the air is crisp and mild, and the sun shines throughout the day.
Sure, you can plan to take your vans out during the peak months, but that’s not the best time to take a van out. If you’re going to the beach, why not take it out during the rainy season? The beach can be more of a hassle than a good time, plus the rain can cause the tires to wear quicker, and make things more difficult.
When you go into summer, the sand becomes more solid, and the air becomes hotter and humid. The temperature can change quite dramatically. The best times to take a car out are for the warmer months, when the air is still cool and the beaches are safe and inviting.
The van rentals in Rhode Island can be quite inconvenient. We’ve had several trips where the van was broken down, and then we had to find another one to go with the broken one. (We’ve been using a rental car to cross the island from time to time, and that’s worked pretty well.
While you are technically allowed to rent vans on the island, I’m not sure it is a great idea, as people in the van tend to have way more fun than the people on the island. Renting vans on the island requires that you know exactly where the van is, and the vans are all in the same place.
The problem with renting vans on the island is that the vans don’t have GPS, and they can be easily blocked by construction trucks and people who dont like your company. The rental car companies are usually on the island, so you can check to see if they are available to get you to the island, and your only real options are to use the vans, or to walk back and forth to the van rental company’s office.
You should read up on “building a new island” and see if it has any of the above ideas.
I am personally not a fan of vans on an island. They need to have some GPS, and some sort of communication system. And you cant block them with a person unless you are going to drive them around the island. But that’s probably not something that you want to do anyway.
With the new island, the vans are back out in the open. If you want to just walk around, that’s fine. But if you want to drive around, you should definitely walk around. It’s only about two blocks long. You have options, and the vans are very cheap.
There are actually a few vans that are available for rent on the island at different times. You have to be very close to the van to get a good deal. The big difference is that you don’t have to pay full price for a rental. Just pay the deposit. Since you’re renting the van from the owner, you have to pay no deposit. So you don’t have to worry about the deposit.
