Once you have your pool together, your group decides on a route, pick-up points and schedule. Vanpooling is flexible so consider picking up riders at health clubs or even daycare centers -- places that fit everyone's needs.

After your group establishes a route, you can figure out your daily mileage which sets the fare. (Check with your local public transit provider for exact fares.)

Plus, many employers subsidize public transportation. Does yours?

Some or all of the program features mentioned in Easy Steps to Vanpooling may be available. Check with your local Public Vanpool Provider to find out what is offered in your area.
