Boxcar Transit
Boxcar is a New Jersey-based commuting company that turns the suburban trip into Manhattan into something you can book on a phone. It started in 2017 as an 'Airbnb for parking' - matching commuters with unused driveways and lots near train stations - then added business-class commuter buses with reserved seats, Wi-Fi and curbside drop-off across Midtown. Today it runs seven bus routes, manages over 1,000 daily parking spaces near roughly 50 train stations across NJ, NY, CT and beyond, and has folded in local services like at-home auto detailing.
Joe Colangelo
Joe Colangelo is the Founder and CEO of Boxcar Transit, a luxury commuter bus and parking marketplace company he started in 2016 by renting out his own Cranford, NJ driveway for $2/day. A U.S. Navy veteran, UC Berkeley political science graduate, and former President of Consumers' Research, Colangelo built Boxcar into a profitable suburban mobility platform serving 21 New Jersey towns with named luxury bus routes to Midtown Manhattan, nearly 600,000 reservations across 7 years, and a parking network of 1,500+ spaces across 4+ states - positioning the company as the answer to every NJ commuter's prayer during rail strikes, mass transit disruptions, and the general indignities of commuting by train.
