    The place I mentioned on E. Dominguez St., I deliver and pick up loads on that street. All industrial. You’re good there.

    If you park at any of those industrial area spots don't be surprised if you have graffiti on your trailer when you wake up. You can always tell the guys who parked in L.A. the night before crawling up the Grapevine or Cajon with a freshly tagged trailer.

    That area of Carson isn’t too bad, just a lot of RV’s with homeless people parked on the side streets off of Wilmington Ave.
     
    Siinman and Diesel Dave Thank this.

    Go on Trucker path. Look at parking availability and read review comments. I used to go to cali often. There’s always parking you just have to be smart about it so you don’t get a ticket

    I worked in Carson 40 years ago. So I'm sure there's been a few changes, but stay south of the 91 Fwy, North is city of Compton, and Carson is very close to Port of Long Beach/Port of Los Angeles so expect to see containers, containers and more containers. If you roll out of Ontario at 4am, you should have minimal traffic. Well, are you up to it ? Have fun !
     
    Knucklehead Thanks this.
