ValuePark LAX

Cheap and good!
Shuttle was on time and plenty of parking!
They have a deal going on where it’s only 6.95!
The shuttle driver answered all my questions politely.

We found this parking structure through the ParkMe app. It was incredibly easy to use the app coupon at the parking structure. We on the 4^th floor (no big deal, as there is an elevator). We went to the shuttle arrival area – and it arrived immediately. The shuttle driver was super cheery and nice! He handed out cards for us to text the number when we returned from our trip.
When we landed back In LA, we immediately texted the provided number for the shuttle pick-​up. We were quickly picked up (maybe 8 mins later), and as it was so late, 12pm, there was no one else on the shuttle or the roads. It took us a quick 5 – 10 mins to get back to the parking structure. The shuttle driver was again, very nice! We were incredibly impressed with the service, consider the cheap, affordable prices!
Highly recommend, and we will be using them EVERY time.

I would use them again. Price is decent, cheaper than the other ones I saw and only 11 min from the airport. Of course you have to allow time to get to the airport and plan accordingly. The 1 agent that worked there was a little snobby, as she if she was annoyed to be working there, and in return it annoyed me, but other than that, everything was smooth sailing and pretty easy.
I see a lot of complaining on the reviews of the wait times for the shuttle, but when you make your reservation online it CLEARY tells you 15 – 20 wait for shuttle, so I’m not sure why they are complaining. We waited about 10 – 15 min for the shuttle to the airport and exactly 20 min for the return trip the the parking. I appreciated getting to the airport quicker as opposed to getting back to our car when we returned because it’s the flight I had to catch that I was worried about. The shuttle driver was very polite and helpful with our bags.
I also saw people complaining about having to park on the 3^rd and 4^th floor? What’s the big deal?! There’s an elevator! Simple as that, of you want up close and front parking, then stop being cheap and pay for valet!
Overall, other than the annoyed agent working there, it was a good parking facility to use.

I was a little hesitant to use ValuePark given some of the reviews and complaints about the wait time for the shuttle. It wasn’t hard to find the location (look on Google Maps before you go). I arrived around 7am and there was a shuttle waiting there already. On the way back, we waited about 10 – 15 minutes from the time we texted them. Not too bad. Their prices are reasonable and I love how it’s a covered parking structure as opposed to an open lot.
Reservations online are at an hourly slot like 7am, 8am. I selected 8am online but arrived at 7:15 am. They didn’t charge me extra. Make sure to print your parking confirmation.

In exchange for a cheaper parking rate (approximately $ 10~11 per day comparing with approximately $ 13 per day for QuikPark LAX), ValuePark LAX offers longer shuttle rides to/​from LAX (additional 5~10 minutes comparing with QuikPark), not-​so-​obvious designated shuttle pickup spot, and a pretty rundown parking structure with difficult-​to-​locate elevators.

IMPORTANT: Don’t be confused and drive into the wrong parking structure (which I almost did). Once you follow GPS and see TWO parking structures, please remember that «405 Airport Parking» is on the LEFT hand side and «ValuePark LAX» is on the RIGHT hand side.
Step 1 — I booked on the website called Cheap Airport Parking (
). Interestingly enough, the parking payment is separated into «Prepaid» (just to reserve a spot and it was about $ 10 for 4 days) and «Due at Lot» (pay at the exit as you drive OUT of the structure and it was about $ 31 for 4 days).
Step 2 — Don’t worry about the QR code scanner at the gate opener. Press the button at the parking gate opener to pick up the parking ticket. Most of parking spots are pretty tight, but I was able to find an available spot at level 4.
Step 3 — Hold your parking ticket and parking confirmation printout (RECOMMENDATION: LEAVE THEM IN YOUR CAR). ValuePark LAX doesn’t have an «office» and you’ll be paying to the parking attendant at the exit as you drive OUT of the parking structure.
Step 4: Walk out of the structure and wait at the designated «Shuttle Pickup» spot located RIGHT NEXT TO «405 Airport Parking» and ACROSS FROM «ValuePark LAX». I looked like a dumb Asian dude when I stood right in front of this «airport shuttle pickup» sign for 5 freakin minutes as I watched everyone just whizzed through me.
Step 5: Hop into the «405 Airport Parking» shuttle. Both «405 Airport Parking» and «ValuePark LAX» share the same shuttle service together. While QuikPark have their shuttles ready to go, «405 Airport Parking» shuttle took 10 minutes to arrive at the designated «Shuttle Pickup» spot and additional 10 minutes to get to Terminal 4. Our super friendly shuttle driver reminded us that this shuttle is «405 Airport Parking» and do NOT be confused with «105 Airport Parking». Shuttles operate 24 hours and typically run every 15 — 20 minutes.
Note: If you are flying with the American Airlines, then you need to tell driver which city you will be going to because American Airlines operates three different terminals — Terminal 4, Tom Bradley International, and Terminal 6.
Step 6: Once you are back and pick up your luggage, text your terminal to (310) 439‑5335 for a shuttle pick up and wait at the RED «Hotel & Courtes Shuttles» designated spot. To my surprise, the shuttle came 5 minutes after I sent out my text. It took 13 minutes to get back due to various pickups at each terminal.
Step 7: Get back to your car, have your parking ticket and parking confirmation printout ready, drive your car to the exit, and pay to the parking attendant. I actually lost my parking ticket and luckily all I had to do was filling out this form and paying the remaining parking balance (about $ 31).

ValuePark LAX is not the greatest parking service in LAX and QuikPark LAX has the location advantage over ValuePark LAX. However, ValuePark LAX becomes a decent and less expensive parking service if:
(1) You are familiar with how ValuePark LAX works
(2) You have additional 30 minutes to wait (comparing with QuikPark’s waiting time)
(3) You are okay with a rundown parking structure and somewhat hidden elevator location

I used a discount code and got a really good deal for parking the week before through the day of Thanksgiving. Shuttle both ways did not take that long to come, so I am a happy camper.
In response to the people Kvetching about the extra day charges, I would suggest you pad in some time to the reservation for allowing time in case traffic is light and you get to the lot early and for giving you time to get your bags and get through customs and get a shuttle on your way back. I did, and no extra charges and made it in time.

We used a discount code and reserved parking for 3 days at $ 7.16/day + tax. $ 23.63 for 3 days is a great deal until you try to leave and they demand an extra $ 16.95. The attendant who was there when we left refused to explain the extra charges and told us to call the 800 number. The 800 number (after 30 min on hold) told me I should have called them before paying at the gate and they couldn’t do anything. I’m not sure what they think calling them at 1am when they are closed would have done, but I sure as hell wasn’t going to spend the night in the parking garage just because they have sleazy business practices.
This was a hesitant 2^nd attempt at parking here. The first time it took an hour for the shuttle to show up to take us from parking to the airport. I parked with 2 hours until my flight, and got to the airport too late to have my luggage make the plane. At least that time they didn’t ALSO overcharge me???
It may look like a good deal, but they’re going to screw you one way or another. Avoid this place at all costs!

I had a bad experience with this parking lot. My reservation was from 7am nov 3 until 10pm nov 11. Since they charge per day, so i was quoted for 9 days. I came in a lil early on nov 3, and when i scanned the code, i will be charged an extra day for coming in early. So I asked the attendant, and he said to not worry about it as long as i come back before 10pm on nov 11. I even asked the driver and he said the same thing. Ok, then i came back from my vacation. I scanned the code again on my way out before 10pm and it’s saying to pay the extra day. I asked for the help of the attendant to waive the fee since the other attendant and the driver told me to not worry about it, but the lady attendant told me that there’s nothing she can do it about it. I was so upset and just paid it.
I don’t think it’s right to charge an extra day for coming in early. You can’t expect people to scan the code at the exact time. You mean to say if we come in early, we’re just gonna wait outside of the lot until the time of the reservation? And it doesnt even say on the reservation paper that coming in early would incur an extra day charge. Technically speaking, i was already paying for 9 days but still was charged. I think this is their business tactic.

I have been parking here for YEARS! I have referred so many friends and family here. I am a huge fan of being punctual to a flight, that’s why I usually take my own car and park it myself. Its there easiest thing ever. You reserve your parking you get there, park, catch a shuttle, and get dropped off right at the gate. On the return flight you call the business card that you are given and they pick you up curb side to your gate. Its the easiest and safe and hassle free way to go.
My ONLY complaint would have to be because of today!!! I made a reservation and for personal reasons I had to cancel it 10 minutes later, they would not refund me my deposit. I felt they could have made an exception and refunded me the amount but instead I was told no over and over again!!! After so many years of being wow’ed I feel disappointed with there customer service.

It’s been hard to find a decent and inexpensive parking option but I think this is IT. Right off Century and the 405, it’s pretty close to the airport. We did the online reservation and I definitely have to take off one star because the garage was so full we almost had to park on the roof! Circled back down and found ONE space open in 6 levels. Having a reservation, I didn’t expect they might be completely full.
Shuttle was outside and left within about 8 minutes and driver was super friendly. On the return, we texted we had arrived and we were outside under the sign for less than 10 minutes before a shuttle arrived. Again, a very pleasant driver. Overall, easy and efficient compared to many of the nearby options.

We parked here for our quick weekend trip and ended up being very inconvenienced. Upon dripping off the car, we waited at least 20 minutes for a shuttle to come bring us to the airport and when one still hadn’t come we took an über to the airport! Then when we arrived back at the airport, my husband called the designated number and they said they were ⁷⁄₈ minutes away. The van came 30 minutes later. Then we got in a van that was so full there was barely room for us.
I would never use this rental lot again. We saw every other car rental shuttle pass by us multiple times before ours came. When we called to complain, they said, «all those other companies have 10 shuttles, we only have 5.» As if that’s a good explanation!
Never again!

We had an early flight out of LAX on Saturday for a weekend getaway. I followed the ad to get a deal by booking online. I paid just over $ 7 when I reserved our parking spot online. I chose them because it is covered parking and a reasonable price for 2 days.
The shuttle buses are blue marked «405» and services both Value Park and the parking garage across from it. We waited maybe 3 – 5 minutes for pick up. They shuttle every 15 minutes to LAX. Save Value Park phone number so you can text for pickup. Read the signs posted for more directions. It was a very short ride to LAX.
When we returned, we stood under the red signs at the airport and a shuttle arrived within minutes so we did not have to text for pickup. The shuttle made a few more stops along the airport road to pick up more passengers.
Take a picture of your reservation if you reserve online or print a copy. You will need it when you return as proof of payment. The balance of $ 21 plus change is due at check out.
We will likely use this service again. The drivers were nice, even to the rude passengers.

This is my go-​to place to park my car near the LAX airport for short trips. They got very competitive/​cheaper prices compared to the rest. Yes their parking spots can be pretty cramped as most claim to be compact spots yet you see big SUVs and vans take up the spot so there’s nothing you can really do but eye for those corner spots or park near small cars. Sure they sometimes don’t show up as prompt as they could have but it’s okay (minor issues). Usually within 15 minutes they will have a shuttle to send you off to the airport. Usually no more than 30 minutes you should get picked up from the LAX airport back to their parking structure. They also seem to have updated their system as now all you need to do is scan a QR code with their reader to go into and out of the parking structure. Sweet!

I received an email from ValuePark after writing my last review that said that want to give me 3 nights parking free. I responded asking what happened, will a shuttle leave me on the curb again, will one actually come? No one responds for a month. I followed up and she apologized and said 3 free nights… again. They still weren’t addressing the issue but whatever.
So then I go park this past weekend. Kenneth was my shuttle driver and he could not be more amazing/​professional/​friendly. Got us to the airport no problem. Coming back was a 10 minute wait, he was also our driver. The shuttle was super crowded. Standing room only. It was hot and stuffy and we stopped at every terminal. But once we got there, it was all good and I grabbed my car without issue. Again, Kenneth was the best shuttle driver ever. You pay on your way out and I was supposed to show the email to the guard guy to get the 3 free nights parking. He had no clue what it was and walked across to the office (while a line formed behind me). Slowly came back, told me to write my personal info on the email and then opened the gate.
So in synopsis, please don’t expect any sort of 4 star service here. You get what you pay for. it is close to the airport and the freeways. They are GREAT taking you to the airport. Please take extra time, patience upon your return. It’s cheaper than other parking garages so it’s not going to be the same level of service. But it gets the job done.

The service and experience at Value Park LAX has been pretty consistent for me so I continue to use them.
On the weekends, the lot can definitely get full. So I highly recommend making an online reservation. That way you can prepay as well and lessen your hassle. Only this past time did I have to park on the roof. All other times I have gotten a covered parking spot. I find their garage to be less cramped than 405 Parking.
The daily rate ranges but is usually under $ 10.
They share shuttle service with 405 Parking which is right across the way. The shuttle from the parking lot to the airport is always quick and this is a definite plus so you don’t need to worry about being late to your flight. I have waited anywhere from 10 min to 40 min for the shuttle back to the lot. This is mostly related to airport traffic, so I can’t blame them too much.
This has become my go to park and ride when I fly out of LAX

Waited 45 minutes for a shuttle to pick us up from the airport, watching vans from other parking companies pass over and over again.
Driver didn’t say hi, help with anyone’s luggage, or bother removing the scowl from her face.
Then was delighted to find out the rates on their site are make-​believe. No rooftop rates anymore, though they are still clearly listed at
. I just left my car for a week uncovered for no reason. Even tried to confirm the rate when I was parking, but couldn’t find an attendant anywhere. Good thing I wasn’t trying to leave at that time, would’ve been stuck by an unattended booth with the gate arm.
I’ve used ValuePark multiple times in the past, with great results, but this experience has been enough for me to say never again.

I was tired of having to wait for those take-​you-​home-​shuttles. You know the ones that make you wait at least a good 20 min (even though they know exactly what time your plane lands) before they pick you up. Then the shuttle waits at every terminal for at least another good 5 minutes each trying to fill up the van to the max. I usually don’t see my home until 2 hours later (on a good day)!
I knew it was time to try driving myself to LAX. This was my first time parking at (near) LAX. Luckily I found this place via Groupon so needless to say I found a great deal! And after reading the Unilocal reviews, I purchased the deal.
Reservations are made online. It’s quick and easy. They take Visa/​MC and Amex. No Discover (bummer!). Make sure you have a printer because you need to print out and bring the reservations with you.
Be sure to look at the photos posted here on Unilocal so you have an idea of what to look for when you get to this parking garage. When I arrived, I found parking quickly. Got my stuff and waited on the curbside of the 405 parking garage where it says «Airport Passengers» (or did it say Airport Shuttle). I waited for about 15 minutes and a shuttle came and I was off to LAX.
On my return, I texted the number. The shuttle picked me up in 5 min. Did the usual stop at each terminal but did not park/​linger at each one (if there were no guests there, they left). Got back to the parking garage and got into my car. Presented my printed paperwork along with the ticket you get when you first park to the parking attendant and I was on my way.
Only improvement I would recommend would be placing a lamp or having the area where passengers wait for the shuttle on the street to be better lit. When I was waiting for the shuttle, it was 5am and completely dark. I was the only one standing there and it felt rather unsafe. Yes the parking attendant is about 2 car length away. but the parking attendant isn’t exactly keeping his eyes on me. (He’s inside a booth with his window up watching something on his phone.)
Overall I was very pleased. Definitely wouldn’t mind parking my car here again if Groupon had another deal.

WARNING! My car was KEYED! I parked a few spots in on the ground floor, within view of the exit booth. When I brought it to their attention, the manager on duty was unapologetic and shifted blame by saying next time I should not use a self-​park service. They even made me pay for parking! I would advise you to avoid ValuePark unless you have a car that you don’t care about. They will not accept responsibility.
Advice to management: CCTV systems are cheap, at the very least you need to protect your customer’s property by installing a system. Until then, park at ValuePark at your own risk!

This was my first time doing long term parking at LAX and everything went well I would say. That sucks not everyone had the same experience! If only I fly outta the same airport each time, I’d do this more often to save the hassle of asking people for rides.
Make reservation!
— I booked mine through:

— It was the cheapest on the list, $ 6/​day.
— You can easily find $ 5 coupon code online to waive off the $ 5 service fee
— Make sure to print out your receipt!
— For check out time: add an extra 1.5hr to your arrival time to avoid late fee because flights at LAX never arrive on time AND the shuttle takes up another 30 minutes itself.
Parking Structure
— It’s off La Cienega & 99^th. You won’t miss it cause it says Value Park in front?
— Press for a ticket just like any other parking structure when you first enter. No need to scan anything
— They do have elevator here
— All the spots are compact so it’s kinda tight
Shuttle
— Departure: Waited at least 20 minutes for the shuttle to come to the parking structure. Luckily there were two coming at the same time so it could fit all of us. The shuttle take passengers from both parking structure so it could get a little packed depend what time you go.
— Arrival: just call them when you land so they can tell their drivers to stop by your terminal. (310)216−9235. Stand under the red zone «Hotel & Shuttle Courtesy.» It takes at least 30 minutes to get out of the airport because they do drive through all the terminal to pick up their guests.
— I thought both of the drivers that I had were really nice. They helped their guests with luggages each time.
Exit
— Got to my car safe and sound. Paid the leftovers amount on the receipt when I exited

Recently, I had to find a place to park and fly. I Unilocaled and found ValuePark. Like many people mentioned, this place was one of cheaper self-​park garages near LAX.
The rates are:
Ground Floor Reserved $ 9.95 per day
Covered $ 8.95 per day
Rooftop $ 6.95 per day
(plus 10% city tax & $ 1.75 Airport Access Fee)
If you want to score the rooftop parking (best deal), be sure to make a reservation early as the spots will sell out fast.
However, since the rate is low, it comes with a few cons. The pick-​up wait time may vary. I called the shuttle pick up once I arrived, and the shuttle service took 15 minutes. Another guy on my shuttle complained to the driver that he waited an hour.
When I called the place a couple times, the operator seemed quick to hang up my call. The driver (to and from the LAX), on the other hand, were great. They were friendly and willing to help me with my luggage.
