Lumberton lies just a short distance from the New Jersey Turnpike and is a great place to stay when you rent an RV in New Jersey. The town gets its name from the vast forests that once covered the central section of the state and was used to build many of the homes and businesses in the earlier days of Philadelphia. Today, most of the residents of Lumberton make their living in the Philly area, with the town serving as a bedroom community for the metro. If you’re interested in visiting the Philadelphia area from Lumberton, it’s best to use the NJ Transit bus system; it can be a challenge to find parking for your rig in the city as much of it was laid out before the advent of the automobile.
