Car Rental Prices

How much does it cost to rent a car in Weymouth?

On average, car rentals in Weymouth cost around $91 per day, with the lowest-priced rentals starting at $30 per day.

How to pay less?
  • Skip the airport: Pick up in Weymouth or nearby Braintree/Quincy and dodge Boston Logan's extra fees, usually saving 15-25%.

  • Shop around close by: Check prices for the same dates in Weymouth, Braintree and Quincy—five miles can mean a different rate or promo.

  • Aim for a weekly deal: Renting 5-7 days? Weekly pricing often beats the sum of daily rates, even if you return a day early.

  • Reserve early for summer only: July – August and holiday weekends see sell-outs; locking in 2-3 weeks ahead can beat the surge. Off-season? Last-minute deals pop up, so compare again before you commit.

  • Go small, save big: Economy or compact cars cost less to rent, sip less gas and squeeze into tight South Shore parking spots.

Driving Distances from Weymouth

FAQs

What's the best vehicle type for visiting Weymouth and the South Shore?
Most people who visit find a midsize or compact car is all they need. These cars use less gas and are easy to park. If you plan to bring gear to the beach or you're traveling as a family, an SUV might be a better choice. In the winter, you should think about getting a car that has all-wheel drive.

Is Weymouth a good base for exploring the region?
Yes, Weymouth is a great spot to stay while you explore the area. You can drive to Boston in 30-45 minutes (when it's not rush hour), get to Cape Cod in about an hour and reach historic Plymouth in 30 minutes. Because it's right in the middle of the South Shore, you can easily get to many different sights.

What should I know about driving to Cape Cod from Weymouth?
The bridges to Cape Cod (Sagamore and Bourne) get very backed up, especially on summer weekends. You'll find the worst traffic on Friday afternoons and Sunday evenings. To miss the traffic, you should drive very early in the morning (before 8 AM) or later at night (after 8 PM).

How do I handle beach parking in Weymouth?
During the summer, you'll need a resident sticker to park at most Weymouth beaches. If you're visiting, you can only park at certain public beaches. To get a spot on summer weekends, you should arrive early (before 10 AM) or think about visiting less-known beaches in towns nearby.

Are there electric vehicle charging stations in Weymouth?
Weymouth itself doesn't have many charging stations. You can find more in the next town over, Braintree, especially at South Shore Plaza. More stations are being added, but if you rent an electric car, you should plan your charging stops ahead of time.

What's the best strategy for commuting to Boston from Weymouth?
On weekdays, a good way to get to Boston is to drive to the Braintree MBTA station. You can park there for the day ($9) and take the Red Line train into the city. This way, you'll avoid expensive downtown parking and rush hour traffic. On weekends, it might be easier to drive all the way in, but you should still think about parking outside the main city area.
