Sprinter Van Service in Brooklyn

Brooklyn streets vary more than Manhattan grids. Brownstone blocks in Park Slope, Cobble Hill and Carroll Gardens are narrow and lined with parked cars, so the Sprinter usually loads at the corner or on the nearest avenue. Newer waterfront buildings in DUMBO, Williamsburg and Greenpoint often have a drive-in or a wide side street. Name the building and a preferred corner when you book and the chauffeur plans the approach before arriving.

JFK is the nearest major airport for most of the borough, about 12 miles and 30-50 minutes away. LaGuardia is about 10 miles off by the BQE, but the drive through Queens traffic takes a similar 30-50 minutes. Newark is about 18 miles, reached either across Lower Manhattan and the Holland Tunnel or over the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge and Staten Island, whichever is moving better on the day.

For departures, pick the airport by airline and flight time rather than by distance; the Sprinter serves all three at the same starting rate of $600.

Barclays Center concerts and games, events at the Brooklyn Navy Yard and Industry City, and weddings at waterfront venues make up much of the borough work. Brooklyn weddings often split the ceremony and the reception between two neighborhoods, and one Sprinter booked by the hour can move the wedding party between both with a photo stop at Brooklyn Bridge Park on the way.

Brooklyn has four East River crossings into Manhattan. The Brooklyn, Manhattan and Williamsburg Bridges carry no toll; the Hugh L. Carey Tunnel from Red Hook to Lower Manhattan does. The chauffeur picks the crossing that suits your Manhattan address, and your quote confirms the final price, which can vary with taxes, tolls and availability. Hourly service starts at $200 per hour with a 3-hour minimum.
