Car Rental in Apapa
Self-drive, chauffeur and logistics vehicle hire built around Apapa's two faces — the container terminals and truck routes around the Port Complex and Tin Can Island Port, and the quieter tree-lined streets of Apapa GRA. A vehicle reaches you, cleared and ready, any hour of the day.
Our Fleet Available in Apapa




Apapa Port Complex
Nigeria's premier container port, "Premiere Port," on the Lagos Lagoon mouth.
Tin Can Island Port
Ro-Ro terminal and Nigeria's main hub for vehicle imports.
Apapa GRA
The Government Reserved Area — low-density, tree-lined, set apart from the port corridor.

The commercial spine of shipping, insurance and logistics offices.
Apapa-Oshodi Expressway
Main link out toward the mainland and Murtala Muhammed Airport.
Mile 2
Transport interchange feeding the wider port-truck corridor.
Nigeria's maritime gateway, and one of its oldest planned reserves
Apapa has been Nigeria's principal port since the colonial era, when the British built the Lagos Port Complex and, alongside it, laid out Apapa GRA as a low-density "Garden City" reserve for administrators and technical staff. That duality still defines the district today — the container terminals, gantry cranes and heavy truck routes around the Port Complex and Tin Can Island Port sit only minutes from the quieter bungalow-lined streets of the GRA.
ToTrip Car Rental Services runs delivery specifically against that split — drivers who know the port-bound truck corridor along Wharf Road and Creek Road, the fastest ways round it, and the calmer internal roads of Apapa GRA for residents and corporate guest houses.
Why Apapa clients book ToTrip
Drivers who read the truck corridor
Chauffeurs on Apapa bookings track the port-bound truck traffic along Wharf Road and Creek Road and route around it, rather than sitting in it.
Port logistics and GRA residents, both covered
The same desk runs Hilux logistics bookings for clearing agents and quiet self-drive delivery for Apapa GRA households, without either getting the wrong kind of driver.
Saloon to logistics pickup
Daily saloons for GRA residents, a Hilux for port and warehouse runs, and an executive SUV for shipping and freight-forwarding meetings.
Vehicles available for delivery to Apapa
Every vehicle below can be delivered to Apapa GRA or arranged for pickup near the port gates, self-drive or chauffeur-driven.

Toyota Hilux
The desk's most-booked vehicle for port, warehouse and clearing-agent runs.

Toyota Camry
Straightforward daily saloon for Apapa GRA residents and errands.

Toyota Prado
Meetings along Wharf Road and Creek Road, and airport transfers.

Self-drive or chauffeur — matched to Apapa's two zones
Self-drive suits Apapa GRA residents who already know the quieter internal streets, away from the port-bound truck routes. Chauffeur-driven hire suits shipping executives, clearing agents and visitors who need someone who already reads the traffic along Wharf Road and Creek Road, and knows how to route around it.
- Self-drive: valid licence, ID, verifiable address, same-day approval.
- Chauffeur-driven: driver briefed on the port-truck corridor and its alternate routes.
- Both options: delivery direct to your GRA address or a port-side meeting point.
