What this means for drivers

Why people rent a car in Glendale

Glendale sits in the west valley and is best known for the Westgate district, home to a stadium and arena. Event weekends drive most visitor demand here, and the west valley is spread out enough that a car is necessary to move between venues, hotels and the airport.

What it costs

Rentals start from $29 a day. Event weekends price noticeably higher and book out early, so plan ahead if you are coming for a game or concert.

What listing your car in Glendale means
