Montebello/Commerce station is served by 11 Metrolink Riverside Line trains (6 westbound and 5 eastbound) each weekday, running primarily at peak hours in the peak direction of travel. There is no service on weekends.[5]

In addition to Metrolink trains, the station is also served by Los Angeles Metro Bus routes 18 and 66 and Montebello Bus Lines route 70.

In September 2012, the Montebello City Council approved a $537,000 beautification project to upgrade the station, which had not been upgraded since its construction in 1997.[4]

The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) has plans to relocate the station to be adjacent to the Citadel Outlets to promote additional transit usage and reduce traffic congestion in the surrounding area.[6]
