There is no STR-specific noise rule. Short-term-rental guests must follow Galloway's general noise ordinance and New Jersey's statewide noise-control standards (N.J.A.C. 7:29), with quiet hours and decibel limits enforced by police.
Galloway does not regulate noise from short-term rentals separately. Guests are bound by the township's noise ordinance and New Jersey's model noise-control regulation (N.J.A.C. 7:29), which sets nighttime and daytime decibel limits at property lines and prohibits plainly audible disturbance during quiet hours. Complaints are handled by the Galloway Township Police as they would be for any residence. Repeated noise problems at a registered rental can also draw Code Enforcement attention and jeopardize the rental registration.
Noise violations are enforced under the township noise ordinance and N.J.A.C. 7:29; fines apply per incident, and chronic problems can affect the rental's Chapter 276 registration.
