LA CPAP help (hexbear.net)

So I hate airports. I got overwhelmed and didn't pack my CPAP for a vacation. Does anyone know of anywhere around LA that I can go to to rent one? I can get one shipped overnight, but I'm trying to avoid paying $90 for that if possible.

Looks like this place is in North Hollywood and serves the area. Don't know if they do local delivery or if they have a storefront. https://peoplescaremedicalsupply.shop/products/resvent-ibreeze-auto-cpap-rental

Where abouts are you? I'm at a desktop so I can help with faster searches.

Gonna be staying at a hotel in Simi Valley, apparently.

That place is very encouraging, it says they can do pickup at the storefront. I just hope I can get my prescription info and it'll allow me a rental.

Thank you!

This place is even closer!

https://valleycpap.com/ They advertise as being an ally business too.

No probs! I mapped it out and with a car you're looking at 45 min both ways for either of those, they're actually really close to each other. Public transit is about 2:20 each way. I'd just take a cab at that rate.

Don't doxx yourself, just area is fine! Do you have a car available and know the area?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

We will have a car and one of the people has spent most of his life in LA. I don't know if he knows the specific area, but I think he'll be familiar. I'll ask.

Edit: he definitely knows the area.

Looked closer at that Valley CPAP place, not sure if they do rentals or not. Another even closer one that I can't quite tell if they even have CPAP: https://www.medicalsuppliesihp.com/in-store-inventory-moorpark-ca

Good luck comrade! :-)

Thank you so much for all the help. I'm feeling a lot less stressed out.
