Getting in and out of Garlang relies on San Ildefonso's local transport network. Tricycles serve internal barangay routes; jeepney and multicab lines link the barangay to San Ildefonso proper and regional transport hubs. Private vehicle ownership significantly reduces commute time for barangays further from the main road.
