Rent a car in Hoboken from $29 a day, booked directly from a local owner rather than a rental counter. RentUFS lists vehicles across Downtown Hoboken, Washington Street, Uptown and the waterfront.
Hoboken's mile-square footprint and scarce resident parking mean many residents skip ownership entirely and rent when they need a car.
Washington Street: the main commercial spine, busiest for listings.
The Waterfront: beside Hoboken Terminal, easiest to reach by PATH.
Uptown: residential, slightly easier parking.
Tolls: E-ZPass covers the Lincoln Tunnel, Holland Tunnel and NJ Turnpike.
Nearest major airport: Newark Liberty International (EWR).
Worth knowing: Resident parking is scarce and permit-controlled, so confirm a handover point in advance. New Jersey prohibits self-service gasoline.
Coverage tiers are selected at checkout. Liability up to $1M plus state minimums. The deductible is $3,500 for vehicles valued at $55,000 or under, and $6,000 above that.
Hoboken is a mile square with excellent transit and almost no parking, which is exactly why so many residents here do not own a car. The PATH, NJ Transit and the ferry cover Manhattan comfortably. Everything else, from the Jersey Shore to a weekend upstate, needs wheels.
Rentals start from $29 a day, with owners setting their own daily, weekly and monthly rates. Demand here is local and steady rather than seasonal.
Handover is arranged directly with the owner, usually around Washington Street, the waterfront or Uptown. Because parking is so tight, agree both pickup and return points before you book.
E-ZPass covers the Lincoln and Holland Tunnels and the Turnpike, tracked through TollSpot and charged to you. New Jersey prohibits self-service gasoline. All drivers must be at least 21.
Hoboken parking is the most expensive constraint most residents face, and it is precisely why demand for short rentals here is so consistent. If you have a car and a space, you have something genuinely scarce.
Listing is free, you set your own rates, and we charge zero commission on what you earn.
Mostly residents who have deliberately gone car-free, renting for weekends, shore trips and moves. Rideshare drivers rent weekly, and visitors staying in Hoboken as a lower-cost New York base add shorter bookings.
The vehicle must be registered and insured in New Jersey with a current biennial state inspection.
A garage space or reliable permit spot is your biggest asset here. State it clearly in the listing, because renters know parking is the hard part of borrowing a car in Hoboken.
