Car Rental at LaGuardia Airport.

Skip the LaGuardia rental counter. The idea behind Bobby is that you pick up a car from a trusted local host near LGA, in Astoria, East Elmhurst, or Jackson Heights, with the keys handed to you and no line to stand in. The price shows before you book, the host keeps 100%, and Bobby's fee is one flat dollar, never a commission.

Be first when Bobby opens for Car Rental at LaGuardia Airport. No spam, just your launch invite.

The math, both ways

A flat $1 fee, whichever side you are on.

LaGuardia Airport Car Rental FAQ

Can I rent a car near LaGuardia with Bobby?
Bobby plans to match you with local hosts near LGA so you skip the counter. You see the full price before booking, the host keeps 100%, and Bobby adds a flat $1, never a commission.
How is this different from an airport rental company?
You rent from a neighbor rather than a counter: the host sets the price, you see it upfront, and there is no percentage commission or counter markup. Bobby's fee is a flat $1.
How much will renting a car cost on Bobby?
You pay the host’s daily rate plus a flat $1 booking fee, never a percentage, with standard card processing billed at cost and shown in your total before you book. The host sets their own price and keeps 100% of it.
Do I have to go to an airport or a rental counter?
No. Bobby is built around local hosts, so you set up pickup with a real person nearby. No counters, no lines, keys handed straight to you.
Are the hosts and cars vetted?
Yes. Every host is identity-verified before they can list a car, and two-way ratings mean both sides know exactly who they’re dealing with.
Is Bobby available yet?
Not yet. Bobby is getting ready to launch in New York City and squaring away the registrations, licensing, and insurance it takes to do this right. Join the launch list and you’ll be first to rent when we go live near you.

Built for New York. Launching by the book.

Bobby is preparing for launch and is finalizing all required regulatory registrations and licensing, including applicable approvals from the New York City Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC).

Our platform is being built with compliance at its core. Services requiring regulatory authorization will not be offered or made available until all applicable licenses, permits, and registrations have been issued.

In the meantime, we invite you to join our waitlist to be among the first to experience Bobby when we officially launch.
