cuterlmt Posted September 7, 2019 #1 Share Posted September 7, 2019 We get to San Pedro port on a Sunday. We rented a car at what I think is the closest rental car place open on a Sunday at Torrance Marriot. (Hertz). What is the best way to get there? Taxi? Uber, other? We have a hotel in Orange, CA. Thanks for the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffatsea Posted September 7, 2019 #2 Share Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) Just use Uber/Lyft. I am surprised that none of the Long Beach rental places are open on Sunday? I would check that to make sure as they would be closer. Edited September 7, 2019 by riffatsea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daffodiliaz Posted September 8, 2019 #3 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I was recently researching as well for a Sunday pickup. There are rental places in downtown Long Beach that are open on Sunday. I was looking at Avis on Ocean Blvd but there are others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuterlmt Posted September 8, 2019 Author #4 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Will Uber/Lyft pick us up at the port? Or do we have to manage our way to a street somewhere? Thanks for the info on Long Beach car rentals. I'll check the price, but I found Hertz at the Torrance Marriot for about 330, versus over $700 at the Avis in Long Beach. But I'll keep looking. It's been a while since I booked my Hertz that I don't remember if I priced it out and that's why I decided on the Torrance Marriot Hertz. Thanks all!

KeepCalmBearOn Posted September 9, 2019 #5 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Uber & Lyft pick up right at the terminal, no special place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splinter Posted September 13, 2019 #6 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Did you check into getting your rental car at Long Beach Airport? Torrance is in the opposite direction from San Pedro than Orange, and the airport is closer, and right on the 405 freeway. Shared shuttle there runs about $15/person.

Torrance is in the opposite direction from San Pedro than Orange, and the airport is closer, and right on the 405 freeway. Shared shuttle there runs about $15/person. So I checked your idea out. Shared shuttle (via supershuttle - I didn't check any other brands) was way more than $15 a person. They had limited rental cars and they were more than the one I've reserved in Torrance. BUT, it gave me the idea to check out LAX. We are flying back home from LAX. And they had a lot more rental car choices available. And were close or less than the price of our reserved rental. Supershuttle is $47 to LAX. So that may be a better option. My only concern is taking supershuttle and finding the car rental shuttles - but I can't imagine it's that hard at LAX right? Anyone care to offer up opinions? Thanks all for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuterlmt Posted September 16, 2019 Author #9 Share Posted September 16, 2019 well I answered the question myself so I'll share. Rental at LAX cheaper than the Torrance and than Long Beach airport. And premier shuttle will take us from the port to the rental car place (away from LAX property, but associated with LAX) on Aviation road for cheaper than super shuttle. Thanks all for your help!
