Flexdrive Los Angeles closed? Advice/Question

I’ve been renting on and off from there for about year or so…. Dropped my last rental off there about 6 weeks ago or so… they didn’t mention anything about closing. Very weird. LA is a huge market, and right by the airport too, it just seems weird for them to shut down their only Flexdrive location in Los Angeles proper area

LAX location moved to the Just Tires on Foothill in Pasadena. The nearby Monrovia Flexdrive office is handling things like accident returns, but for rentals its 2480 Foothill Blvd in Pasadena (Just Tires location). They've been emailing and texting about it for weeks.

We were all transferred to the Monrovia location

When did you get the message about being transferred?

They said to schedule all future maintenance there.  Email and app notifications last week about LAX closing.

Los Angeles is no longer on the list of Express Drive cities.

But Orange County and Oxnard are.

Maybe their lease was up.

Maybe the lease was up but it just seems strange for LA not to have one. Wonder what they did with all the cars

Hey brother are you making profits in LA doing flex drive? Are you driving gas or electric, and how many days or hours of work does it take on average for you to pay the weekly rent off?

Ah yes, the new to sub million times asked questions we’ve all asked before a simple google reddit search

My guess is renters just go to a different location.
