Taxi Service in Mine Hill, NJ — 24/7 Cabs Five Miles from Our Base
Mine Hill does exactly what its name says. It is a small township on the high ground between Dover and Roxbury, and it was built on iron. It became a municipality of its own in 1923, when it separated from Randolph Township, and it took its name from the ground it stood on.
It is also one of our closest neighbours. Our base at 512 Logan Drive in Landing is about five road miles to the west along Route 46, so a car to Mine Hill is rarely more than a few minutes away — which is useful, because most trips from here are long ones to the airports.

The governor’s mine
Mining here goes back to the early eighteenth century, and Mine Hill had some of the richest iron ore in the country. The largest working was the Dickerson Mine, owned by the family of Mahlon Dickerson, New Jersey’s twelfth governor. It supplied much of the iron ore used during the Revolutionary War.
What sets Mine Hill apart is how long it kept going. Many of the county’s mines had been abandoned generations earlier; here, the last one did not shut until the late 1960s. Some older residents still remember the township as a working mining town, and the roads over the old workings still rise and dip accordingly.
Route 46 through the township
US Route 46 is Mine Hill’s main road, running east into Dover and west towards Kenvil, Succasunna and our base. Most of the township’s homes are reached from roads that climb away from it on either side.
For a pickup, the street and number are enough, but if you are on one of the hill roads above Route 46 tell us which end of the street — a few of them are long, and the numbering is not always obvious from the highway.
The route we drive to Newark Airport
From Mine Hill to EWR is about 34 miles. We take Route 46 or Route 10 to the interstate, then I-80 east, I-287 south and NJ-24 east to the terminals.
- Before 6:00 AM — about 45 to 50 minutes.
- 7:00 to 9:30 AM — allow 70 to 75 minutes.
- 4:00 to 7:00 PM — 75 minutes, with terminal traffic at the end.
Leave three and a half hours before a domestic flight departing before 9 AM, and four and a quarter for international.
Dover station and Saint Clare’s, next door
Mine Hill has no station of its own; Dover’s is a couple of miles east, and it is where the Morristown Line trains start and finish. We run commuters there in the morning and back in the evening, and for regular trains a standing booking is easiest.
Dover is also where the nearest hospital is. Trips to and from Saint Clare’s — appointments, visits and discharges that finish late — are a steady part of our Mine Hill work.
Who rides with us in Mine Hill
A small residential township between two larger towns gives a practical mix:
- Airport travellers on a 34-mile run to Newark.
- Rail commuters going to Dover station.
- Hospital patients and visitors heading to Saint Clare’s.
- Shoppers going to Route 10 in Succasunna or to Rockaway Townsquare.
- Older residents who no longer drive.
Booking a taxi in Mine Hill
Call (973) 306-7075 at any hour. Because we are five miles away, same-day local rides are rarely a problem — but for the airport, book ahead so the car is assigned the night before.
Give us the street, the number and, on the hill roads, which end.
Mine Hill to New York City
The train means getting to Dover first and usually changing on the way in. For a group, a late show or a day with luggage, direct into Manhattan is from $165 one-way with tolls added at the end.
Early flights and winter mornings
We dispatch twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Mine Hill is on high ground, and its side roads ice before Route 46 does. If snow is forecast, tell us and we will set the pickup earlier rather than take the time out of your airport margin.
Being close to our base means that on a bad morning we can still reach you when cars further away cannot.
Local fares around Mine Hill
Short trips are quoted flat before you get in: into Dover, across to Wharton or Randolph, along Route 46 to Kenvil and Landing, or down to Succasunna.
Why book us instead of a rideshare app
A fixed fare set at booking. A car assigned in advance, so an early flight is covered. A local company five miles away rather than a driver who happens to be nearby. And no surge when the weather turns.
Groups, weddings and occasions
A Sprinter van seats up to twelve — one vehicle to the airport for a family, or one ride home after a wedding or a party. For weddings we keep to the timings and arrive early.
Coming home to Mine Hill from the airport
Book the return with the outbound trip. With the flight number we track the landing, so a delay keeps the car and the agreed fare.
Our Fleet Includes:
- Luxury sedan — up to three passengers with luggage.
- Executive SUV — up to six passengers, room for extra bags.
- Sprinter van — up to twelve passengers for groups and events.
- Wheelchair-accessible vehicle — available on request when you book.
