Planning a ride around Palmdale
Palmdale rewards a little planning. Here is what we think about when you book a ride from this part of the Antelope Valley.
The 14 sets the clock
The Antelope Valley Freeway is the main road south toward Santa Clarita and the Valley. It can run smoothly at midday and slow badly at commute hours, so we build the departure time around it rather than around a map estimate.
Pick the right side of town
West Palmdale, with Anaverde, Ritter Ranch and Rancho Vista, sits closer to the freeway on-ramps. Eastern neighborhoods and the stretch toward Plant 42 add distance before the highway even starts. Give us the exact address and we plan from there.
Desert weather and early starts
Summer afternoons are hot and winter mornings can be cold and windy. We keep the cabin comfortable and the car ready, which matters on a 4 a.m. airport pickup.
Visitors flying in
Guests arriving for work at the aerospace employers or for a family event often land at Burbank or LAX. We meet them there and drive them up to Palmdale in one smooth ride.
Using the train too
The Metrolink Antelope Valley Line stops at the Palmdale Transportation Center. Some riders take the train one way and book us for the other, or for the last leg to a home or hotel.
Car service in Palmdale for events and days out
The Palmdale Amphitheater on Rancho Vista Boulevard fills up on concert and festival nights, and the Palmdale Playhouse draws theater crowds downtown. Families heading to DryTown Water Park in summer often want a driver for the day so nobody has to circle the lot with tired kids. Aviation fans visit the Joe Davies Heritage Airpark beside Plant 42. We handle the drop-off, the wait and the ride home.
Groups and mixed arrivals
A wedding party, a team of visiting engineers or three generations of one family rarely arrive in one car. Tell us who is coming from where and we send enough vehicles to move together. Each SUV takes up to six with bags.
