Getting to us from La Puente

From La Puente, the office is about 30 miles away. Drivers can take the CA-60 west or the I-10 west into Los Angeles, continue west on the I-10 to the I-405 south, and exit at Venice Blvd. Outside rush hour, plan on about 45 minutes to an hour; peak traffic adds much more.

La Puente has no rail station of its own. Metrolink and Metro rail stations in nearby cities connect to downtown Los Angeles, where the Metro E Line heads west toward Culver City. Check Metro’s trip planner for the best connection from your address.

La Puente schools and families

La Puente students are served mainly by the Hacienda La Puente Unified School District, with part of the area in the Bassett Unified School District, and Mt. San Antonio College is a short drive east. Families often call us after finding something in a teen’s room. Our guide what to do after a positive test walks through next steps.

Testing options for La Puente clients

  • One-time tests. A single drug or alcohol test by appointment, when you need an answer now.
  • Random testing program. An electronic notice tells you when to test, so results mean something. See our random drug testing program.
  • Ongoing monitoring. A schedule set case by case with a monitoring coordinator who knows you. Learn about drug and alcohol monitoring.
  • Court ordered testing. Testing for courts, probation, attorneys and diversion, with chain of custody documentation when needed.

Tests include a 12 panel urine drug test that screens for common substances such as opioids, stimulants, benzodiazepines and cannabis, testing for fentanyl, a breathalyzer, an EtG alcohol test and saliva testing on request. Bring a photo ID to your first visit. Collection is observed when a court or program requires it, and positives that will be acted on go to partner laboratories for confirmation. See all services.

Court ordered testing for La Puente cases

La Puente is in the Superior Court’s East District, and the West Covina Courthouse lists La Puente among the cities it serves. Check your paperwork for the courthouse and department on your case. If a court, probation officer or attorney requires testing, we provide court ordered testing with chain of custody documentation when needed.

Orders differ from case to case. For a La Puente matter, confirm with your attorney or probation officer whether a particular vendor or format is needed, and read about court ordered drug testing.

Mobile testing in La Puente

If a long drive would mean missing work or school, ask about testing at home. Mobile testing at home or work is offered for an additional fee, and mobile testing may be available in your area; call to ask. Office testing runs Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM, by appointment only, and outside those hours testing can be arranged at other Blackburn locations on the Westside.
