Vanpooling
What is Vanpooling?
A vanpool is made up of five to fifteen people who commute together in a passenger van. One or more members of the group volunteers to drive with each rider sharing the cost of operating the van.
How Do You Save?
Vanpooling is ideal for people with longer commutes, with usual distances of at least 15 miles one way. The longer your commute, the more economical a vanpool tends to be. Likewise, the more riders in the van, the less each rider pays, since costs are typically shared evenly.
As the main driver you also get to take the van home and use it on personal time!
