Cheapest EWR Parking for Week-Long Stays: Off-Airport Lots

Back to Newark Airport Parking Long Term | Complete EWR Airport Parking Guide

EWR long term parking options are the choices available to travelers who need to leave their car at or near Newark Liberty International Airport for multiple days. The best options range from on-airport lots like P4 Daily Garage ($60/day) and P6 Economy Lot ($21/day pre-booked) to off-site private lots starting at about $11/day with a free 24/7 shuttle (Apex Airport Parking). Pre-booking is the single fastest way to cut your bill: travelers who book ahead save 28% to 36% compared to paying at the gate, based on current Port Authority rates.

• Cheapest on-airport option: P6 Economy Lot at $21/day pre-booked (drive-up rate is $35/day)
• Cheapest off-site option with a shuttle: Apex Airport Parking at about $11/day with a free 24/7 shuttle (Red Carpet Inn in Irvington is about $5/day but has no shuttle)
• Best value for convenience: P4 Daily Garage at ~$38/day pre-booked, with direct AirTrain access to all terminals
• Pre-booking saves: up to 36% vs walk-up on official Port Authority lots
• Off-site lots on Triply: eleven lots near EWR at about $11 to $20/day with a shuttle. Triply rates are for a 7-day stay booked ahead and change by date
• 2026 heads-up: AirTrain weekday suspensions (5 AM to 3 PM) mean shuttle buses are replacing monorail service, so allow extra time

What Are the Best Long-Term Parking Options at EWR?

The best EWR long-term parking option depends on your budget and how much walking you want to do. Off-site lots deliver the lowest daily rates, while on-airport garages offer the most direct terminal access. Here is a quick breakdown of your main options:

On-Airport Long-Term Lots

• P4 Daily Garage — $60/day drive-up, ~$38/day pre-booked. Free AirTrain to all terminals. Best for travelers who want a seamless connection.
• P6 Economy Lot — $35/day drive-up, $21/day pre-booked. Shuttle to AirTrain every 5–10 minutes. The cheapest official Port Authority option.
• P1 (Terminal A), P2 (Terminal B), P3 (Terminal C) — $65–$70/day. These are short-term garages billed by the half-hour. For long stays, they are expensive and not recommended.

How Much Does EWR Long-Term Parking Cost? (2026 Rate Guide)

EWR parking costs vary significantly depending on where you park and whether you pre-book. The table below shows 2026 rates. Triply lots are listed first; NJ lots add tax at checkout, and part of the price at Apex, Maas, Motel 6 and EWR Airport Parking is paid at the lot. The on-airport rows are Port Authority lots, booked with the airport and not through Triply.

For a deeper look at how these rates break down week by week, see our EWR long-term parking rates full 2026 breakdown.

On-Airport vs. Off-Airport EWR Parking: Which Is Right for You?

On-airport parking puts you steps closer to your terminal. Off-airport lots on Triply run about $11 to $20/day with a shuttle, but you need to build in extra travel time. Here is how the two compare:

On-Airport EWR Parking

• Pros: Direct AirTrain access from P4, walking distance from P1/P2/P3, no shuttle wait required
• Cons: P4 runs $60/day at the gate; P1–P3 are billed by the half-hour and cost up to $70/day for long stays
• Best for: Travelers who want zero shuttle time and value door-to-terminal convenience above cost

Off-Airport EWR Parking

• Pros: Rates on Triply start at about $11/day with a shuttle (about $5/day at Red Carpet Inn, which has no shuttle)
• Cons: The shuttle adds travel time each way, and Motel 6 asks you to allow at least 30 minutes for check-in and boarding
• Best for: Travelers parking for 3+ days who want to keep costs low

Most travelers parking for more than two days should price an off-airport lot against the airport garages. A 7-day trip at Apex Airport Parking costs about $79 (about $11/day), or $104.12 at checkout with NJ tax. The same trip in P4 at the gate costs $420.

If covered parking matters to you, Snap Parking (98 Frelinghuysen Ave, Newark) is an eight-story enclosed garage at about $20/day, the only lot Triply sells near EWR with indoor parking. Read our full guide to covered parking at Newark Airport for more options.

How Does the AirTrain Newark Connect Parking Lots to the Terminals?

The AirTrain Newark is a monorail system operated by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. It connects all three terminals (A, B, C), the P4 Daily Garage, and the NJ Transit rail station. Travel times from P4 are roughly 7 minutes to Terminal C, 11 minutes to Terminal B, and 20 minutes to Terminal A.

Parking in P4 means you board the AirTrain for free as part of your parking stay. Parking in P6 means you take a short shuttle to the AirTrain, then ride to your terminal. Either way, the AirTrain is the backbone of EWR's ground transit system.

Important 2026 update: The Port Authority broke ground in October 2025 on a $3.5 billion AirTrain replacement project. Throughout 2026, the AirTrain is suspended on weekdays from 5 AM to 3 PM. Free shuttle buses replace the monorail during those hours. If you are parking at P4 or P6, budget extra time for your commute to the terminal on weekday mornings. Check the official EWR construction advisory before your trip for the latest service updates.

Most Triply lots near EWR run their own airport shuttles (Red Carpet Inn does not). Apex Airport Parking's shuttle goes straight to and from the Newark airport terminals, so you do not need the AirTrain to reach your terminal. Lots work differently, though: Embassy Suites pickups are at Lot P4, reached by AirTrain, so check your lot's return instructions.

How to Save Money on EWR Long-Term Parking (Booking Tips)

Saving money on EWR long-term parking starts with booking in advance. Pre-booking the P6 Economy Lot drops the rate from $35/day to $21/day — a 28% saving. Pre-booking P4 saves around 36% off the drive-up rate. Here are the most reliable ways to cut your parking bill:

• Book ahead: reserving online holds your space, and Triply bookings come with free cancellation with a full refund up to 24 hours before check-in
• Compare the closest-priced lots: Apex Airport Parking is about $11/day, and Maas Parking Newark, Motel 6 Newark Airport and ARB Parking Newark are about $12/day, all with 24/7 shuttles
• Check what is paid at the lot: part of the price at Apex, Maas, Motel 6 and EWR Airport Parking is paid at the lot
• Watch vehicle surcharges: Apex adds $5/day for a small SUV, $7/day for a large SUV and $10/day for a truck at the lot; Motel 6 requires the large vehicle option for trucks, vans and large SUVs; EWR Airport Parking adds $3/day for oversized vehicles
• Try hotel lots: Hilton Newark Airport Parking, Renaissance Newark Airport Hotel, Courtyard Newark Liberty and Courtyard by Marriott Newark Elizabeth sell parking only on Triply, not rooms
• Budget pick: Red Carpet Inn is about $5/day if you are fine taking Uber or Lyft both ways

Which EWR Parking Lot Is Closest to Terminal A, B, or C?

Your terminal assignment determines which parking approach is fastest. Here is what to know for each terminal at Newark Liberty International Airport:

Terminal A (New Terminal A)

P1 is the on-airport garage for Terminal A. It runs up to $65/day and is billed by the half-hour — not ideal for long stays. Airlines here include Air Canada, Alaska, American, Delta, JetBlue, and United. The $2.7 billion New Terminal A opened in 2023 and is fully operational with 33 gates. AirTrain travel from P4 to Terminal A takes around 20 minutes.

Terminal B

P2 serves Terminal B at up to $70/day. Terminal B hosts most international carriers — including Emirates, British Airways, Lufthansa, Singapore Airlines, Turkish Airlines, and over a dozen more. The Port Authority's 2026–2035 capital plan calls for Terminal B to be fully demolished and rebuilt, though no construction start date has been announced yet. The Port Authority has said procurement is expected to begin in 2026–2027.

Terminal C

P3 serves Terminal C at up to $70/day. Terminal C is exclusively used by United Airlines. It is also the closest terminal to the P4 Daily Garage — just a 7-minute AirTrain ride. United flyers using P4 get the shortest on-airport transit time of any terminal. For more on Terminal C parking, see our guide to Newark Airport parking for Terminal C.

Off-Site Lots Serve All Terminals

You do not need a terminal-specific lot if you park off-site. Shuttle details differ by lot (Red Carpet Inn has no shuttle, and Embassy Suites pickups are at Lot P4 via AirTrain), so check your lot's instructions for the drop-off and pickup point.

Is Off-Airport Parking at EWR Safe? What to Look For

Off-airport parking at EWR is generally safe when you choose a reputable, vetted lot. Here is what separates reliable facilities from ones to avoid:

• 24/7 staff: Apex Airport Parking (front desk 24/7, location monitored 24 hours), Maas Parking Newark, ARB Parking Newark, Motel 6, Renaissance and Snap Parking all list a 24/7 front desk or staff
• Fenced and monitored lots: Renaissance Newark Airport Hotel is fenced with security cameras, Hilton Newark Airport Parking is CCTV-monitored, and Embassy Suites is fenced with 24-hour on-site security and cameras
• Valet handling: at Apex you leave your keys at the front desk and staff park your car; ARB, EWR Airport Parking and Snap also list valet
• Indoor parking: Snap Parking is an enclosed eight-story garage and the only Triply lot near EWR with indoor parking
• EV charging: Snap Parking lists EV charging stations. On-airport, P4 Daily Garage also has EV charging available
• Free cancellation: every lot Triply sells at EWR comes with free cancellation with a full refund up to 24 hours before check-in

Before driving to EWR, use the Waze live traffic map to check real-time conditions on the New Jersey Turnpike (I-95, Exit 14) and Interstate 78. Both are common access routes to the airport and can add significant time during peak hours.

Also factor in TSA PreCheck enrollment if you park off-site and need to move through security quickly after your shuttle ride. PreCheck lanes are typically much faster and can offset the few extra minutes the shuttle adds to your journey.

How Do I Get the Cheapest EWR Long-Term Parking?

The cheapest EWR long-term parking with a shuttle comes from booking an off-site lot in advance. Apex Airport Parking at about $11/day is the lowest rate Triply sells with a free 24/7 shuttle. Maas Parking Newark, Motel 6 Newark Airport and ARB Parking Newark follow at about $12/day. Red Carpet Inn in Irvington is cheaper at about $5/day, but it has no shuttle, so plan on Uber or Lyft both ways.

For trips of a week or more, compare totals, not just daily rates. Seven days at Apex runs about $79, or $104.12 at checkout with NJ tax, and part of the price is paid at the lot. Seven days at the P4 Daily Garage at the drive-up rate would cost $420. The free shuttle from Apex runs every 10 minutes around the clock, and you leave your keys with the valet staff.
