What is now Hazlet Township was originally incorporated as Raritan Township by an Act of the New Jersey Legislature on February 25, 1848, from portions of Middletown Township.

Initially, Hazlet was a thriving farming community, but with the advent of the transportation system, it grew into a booming commercial zone.
