Toms River Township

Toms River Town Hall is located at 33 Washington Street, Toms River NJ 08753; phone: 732-341-1000.

When Ocean County was established in 1850, Dover Township was chosen as the county seat. In 2006 the name of former Dover Township was officially changed to Toms River Township resolving long-standing confusion about names in the area. Parts of the township's boundaries are shared by 11 separate municipalities. Toms River once flourished as a seaport as well as a County Seat.
