  Our Pickup Locations

  Hi, your shuttle picks up where it says Prearranged. If you are in a wheelchair, do not allow your attendant to leave you anywhere except Prearranged. The signs are easy to see and they are always at the outer curb. Sometimes airport security will send people to the wrong place, so it's better to follow the directions below. The airport also won't allow drivers to walk more than 15 feet away from their vehicle or wait, so good communication is essential. Turn on your cell phone and take it off of airplane mode, so your driver can call or text you. If you don't recognize the number, it's probably your driver.

  
  

  Terminal 3 Prearranged is across the crosswalk from Door 6 and to the right, south side of the building.

  
  

  Terminal 4 Prearranged is across the crosswalk from Door 3, north side of the building, first floor. The sign says "Prearranged Vehicles 3 NORTH".

  Things You Should Know

  Does it make sense to take an Uber or Lyft?

  Uber and Lyft drivers often cancel once they arrive at your house, because the app doesn't tell them where they are going until they arrive at your home. Usually drivers don't want to drive that far and not get paid for two hours to drive back, or they are unavailable to work for that long. This may result in you missing your flight after 2-3 of them cancel in a row, and they charge you $5 each time for the cancellation. You then try to contact Uber or Lyft over the next week to get a refund, and they don't even have a phone number.

  Another thing to consider is that Uber and Lyft drivers are never interviewed, so you may get a depressed guy complaining about his life, a tiny car with no leg room or a creeper. Uber and Lyft also do not train their drivers and the airport is moderately confusing to most people, so they usually have no idea where to go.

  
  

  How reliable is the Greyhound bus or an Arizona shuttle with a lot of people?

  Companies that do shared rides will try to pick you up an hour or two earlier, but they make no promises about when you will actually get to the airport. If you're on a tight schedule, the shared ride option with Arizona shuttle or the Greyhound is probably not a good idea. Extra stops and scheduling with other passengers can either make you too early or potentially late. Even with great drivers, passengers can be unpredictable and end up making everyone miss their flight.

  From Phoenix AZ to Tolleson AZ is 12.5 miles, which is approximately a 19 minute drive.

  Driving from Phoenix AZ to Tolleson AZ: Complete Travel Guide

  If you’re planning a trip between Phoenix, AZ, and the neighboring city of Tolleson, AZ, you’ll find that the two communities are surprisingly close. The drive covers roughly 12‑13 miles, and under normal traffic conditions you can expect to complete the journey in about 19 minutes when traveling non‑stop (Source: distance-cities.com). This short commute makes Tolleson a viable residential alternative for Phoenix workers, a convenient route for business visitors, and a quick getaway for weekend explorers.

  Quick Overview: Distance, Time, and Cost

  • Approximate distance: 12–13 miles (about 6.25 miles to the halfway point from each city) (Source: distance-cities.com).
  • Driving time: 19 minutes without stops (Source: distance-cities.com).
  • Fuel cost estimate: $2.18 for a single one‑way trip, based on an average U.S. regular‑gas price of $4.35 per gallon (Source: distance-cities.com).
  • CO₂ emissions: 9.83 pounds per vehicle, which translates to roughly 0.79 pounds of CO₂ per mile (Source: distance-cities.com).

  Major Highways and Route Options

  The most direct route is via Interstate 10 (I‑10) combined with a short stretch of U.S. Route 60 (Grand Avenue). From downtown Phoenix, head west on I‑10. After about 8 miles, take Exit 136 toward 91st Avenue and merge onto US 60 North (Grand Avenue). US 60 will take you directly into Tolleson, passing near the Phoenix‑Mesa Gateway Airport area and the Gila River Indian Community. If you’re coming from the east side of Phoenix, you can also access US 60 from I‑10 East by exiting at the 75th Avenue interchange. Both options keep the total travel time under 20 minutes under typical traffic conditions.

  Traffic Patterns and Best Times to Travel

  Like many metro corridors, I‑10 experiences peak congestion during morning (7‑9 a.m.) and late‑afternoon (4‑6 p.m.) rush hours. If you can schedule your drive outside these windows, you’ll likely enjoy a smoother, quicker trip. Weekends generally see lighter traffic, especially on Saturday morning. Real‑time traffic updates are available through navigation apps such as Google Maps, Waze, or the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) Traveler Information site.

  Fuel Cost Estimate

  Using the average U.S. regular‑gas price of $4.35 per gallon, a vehicle that averages 25 mpg will consume roughly 0.5 gallons for the 12‑mile trip, resulting in an estimated fuel cost of $2.18 (Source: distance-cities.com). Keep in mind that actual pump prices in the Phoenix metro area can vary by station, and prices tend to be slightly higher near major highways. If you drive a more fuel‑efficient hybrid or electric vehicle, the cost per mile will be even lower.

  Environmental Impact: CO₂ Emissions

  The average passenger car emits about 0.79 pounds of CO₂ per mile (Source: distance-cities.com). For the 12‑mile Phoenix‑Tolleson leg, this translates to roughly 9.83 pounds of CO₂ per trip. Choosing carpooling, public transit, or a more fuel‑efficient vehicle can help reduce your carbon footprint. If every driver on this corridor reduced emissions by just 10 percent, the collective impact on local air quality would be noticeable.

  Alternative Transportation Options

  While driving remains the quickest option, several other modes can get you from Phoenix to Tolleson, each with its own trade‑offs in terms of time, cost, and environmental impact.

  Public Transit: Valley Metro Bus and Rail

  Valley Metro, the regional public‑transportation provider, operates several bus routes that connect Phoenix with Tolleson. Route 17 runs along Grand Avenue, providing direct service between the Phoenix CBD and Tolleson’s civic center. The trip on the bus typically takes 30‑40 minutes, depending on traffic and the number of stops. Fares for a single ride are $2.00 (exact fare required), with discounted day‑passes available for frequent travelers. Rail service (the Valley Metro Rail) does not extend to Tolleson, but you can connect at the 19th Avenue/Dunlap station and transfer to a bus for the final leg.

  Rideshare and Taxi Services

  Rideshare platforms such as Uber and Lyft operate throughout the Phoenix metropolitan area, including Tolleson. While more expensive than gas, rideshare offers the convenience of door‑to‑door service and can be a practical choice if you’re traveling with a group or during peak traffic hours when parking in Phoenix can be costly.

  Shuttle Services

  For travelers seeking a balance between cost and comfort, shared‑ride shuttles (often marketed as “airport shuttles” or “regional shuttles”) provide another option. These services usually charge a flat fee per seat, which can be lower than a private rideshare if you’re willing to share the vehicle with other passengers. However, travel times may be longer because of multiple stops. Many shuttle providers allow online booking in advance, giving you a predictable price and peace of mind.
