KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Toms River

  • Rent a car during your visit at Toms River and gain excellent flexibility to explore the vibrant city and the surrounding areas while you're there, such as Vintage Automobile Museum, Double Trouble State Park, Urban Air Trampoline and Adventure, and Anvil Farms. Opting for a car rental in Toms River will make your trips to various places away from the city center easier, for example, The River Belle Sightseeing & Dinner Cruise Boat, which is 19.1 miles from Toms River. You can conveniently reach the place in 30min.
  • Those landing at Trenton Mercer International Airport can rent a car within the airport. The airport has a car rental center featuring a 4-level garage for an abundance of vehicles. There are many rental services, including Hertz Car Rentals, Avis, Edine's Auto Rental Cars, Pine Belt Rental cars, and Enterprise Rental. You can conveniently access these cars using shuttles found at the lower level of every terminal. Thus, finding an excellent ride to other places is hassle-free.
  • Toms Rivers has a lot of traffic. When driving car rentals in Toms River, maneuvering yourself through the multiple intersections is often confusing. Fortunately, a navigation system can easily be installed on Toms River rental cars. As such, you can access different destinations without any problems. Also, Toms River cyclists regularly don't obey traffic light regulations. Pedestrians are also known to jaywalk. Hence, double-checking and putting an excellent eye on pedestrians and cyclists is crucial.
  • Toms River is one of the worst rush hours in the U.S, and it causes unnecessary inconveniences. So, avoid driving your car rentals in Toms River during rush hours. You can go to your destination after or before rush hour. For instance, the intersection at RT. 37 & RT.166 is known to be congested with traffic. You should avoid using it as much as possible during rush hours since even the side roads are equally clogged. Be extra careful during winter because it’s usually very windy and snowy.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Toms River?

    When you are looking forward to renting a car in Toms River, don't look further than a compact or a standard SUV. Toms River is clogged with cars, limiting parking spaces. So, renting compact rather than bulky vehicles is an excellent option. Besides, most Toms River streets are narrow. Therefore, rent a small car like a compact to enjoy the convenience of exploring different destinations. However, you can opt for a standard SUV during winter days. They offer excellent ground clearance, and they'll help you maneuver snowy streets.

  • What is the speed limit in Toms River?

    Toms River has many different roads, each with its speed limit. For instance, when driving your rental car around schools, you should not exceed 25 mph. However, driving along highways such as Manchester Township-Toms River Corporate Lane, or the Toms River Township-Island Heights Borough corporate line, you can go up to 50 mph. Unless you are driving on the highways, don't drive beyond speed limits because that could land you in trouble with the law. Your license could be suspended, or you could be issued speeding tickets. Observing these speed limits guarantees you a comfortable drive.

  • Where are the best places to park in Toms River?

    You will ultimately need somewhere to park your rental car in Toms River. The township is not short of parking places. For free parking, you can go to the corner lot at the intersection of Main Street and the upper section of the lot on Irons Street. These places allow free parking for four hours. You can also park your car for free at the Ocean County garage on Hooper Avenue. Feel free to park your rental car in designated curbside parking. But, before parking, check the parking regulations to understand their policies. Most parking policies are enforced on weekdays from 8 am to 5 pm and weekends from 9 am to 2 pm.
