vanpooling
Group vehicle commuting
Vanpooling is a commuting arrangement where a group of people share rides to work in a van, typically driven by one of the participants.
It falls between carpooling and public transit—more structured than the former, more flexible than the latter.
Employers or transit agencies often organize vanpools, and costs are shared among riders.
Our company offers vanpooling as part of its commuter benefits program.
