Hi there,

I am an international student staying right now in San Luis Obispo, CA.
During summer, I need to go to Arizona. But I do not know how to get to Arizona. I do not have car.

Can you please tell me any mode of transportation and how to contact them?

I need help badly. please help me.

Ok now it's about time! I need to prepare to move out to Arizona.

Thanks for the help. I'm planning to go with greyhound bus. However, I have two large baggage ( 20kg each ) and I am not able to carry them alone as I have other things along with me.

I would like to know if there is any service ( like pick-up and delivery service) with reasonable price.
Moreover, anyone would recommend me a taxi/cab service in SLO as I need a ride to greyhound?

Many universities have some kind of ride board where you can connect with students who are driving home for the summer and looking for riders to share expenses. Ask around at Cal Poly and see if you find one. If not, try here: eRideShare.com Carpool / Rideshare Community

Were it me, I'd take Amtrak's Surfliner to LA, then the Southwest Chief to Flagstaff and an airport shuttle or Greyhound to Phoenix, presuming you're going to the Phoenix area. You might also check Amtrak's bus connector availability at Flag. Good luck!

Amtrak's schedule is early in the morning (3:50AM). I really have no idea how to do with my two large baggage.
I do not have car to drive to the station.

I'm using both craigslist and erideshare, but they seem to me like false hope.

Mail the 2 large bags to yourself at your destination ahead of time and take the SLO city bus to the Greyhound station.
