Bergen County does not regulate short-term rental parking. Each municipality applies its own residential parking standards, typically requiring one to two off-street spaces per dwelling unit and restricting commercial overnight parking on residential streets.
Parking for Airbnb and other short-term rentals in Bergen County is governed by municipal zoning codes and residential parking ordinances. Most towns require off-street parking equal to the underlying residential use, generally one to two spaces per dwelling unit. Densely developed municipalities like Fort Lee, Cliffside Park, and Edgewater enforce strict permit-only overnight street parking, which guests cannot use without obtaining a visitor permit. Hosts in suburban towns such as Wyckoff, Mahwah, and Upper Saddle River must ensure guests park entirely on the property, as recurring street parking by transient occupants can be cited as a zoning violation by the municipality.
Parking violations result in tickets ranging from $25 to $100 per offense; repeated violations may trigger zoning enforcement against the rental operation itself.
