Carpooling is sharing a ride with another, whether a neighbor, family member, or classmate. Vanpooling is similar to carpooling, however with additional passengers. It is an economical option for those who commute over long distances.
Riders generally meet at a central location and pay the owner a set monthly fee.
The vendor can contract directly with one or more employees. The monthly lease fee is paid by the group of users. The employer organizes the vanpool riders and insures and maintains the vehicles. The employer may charge a fee to ride in the van or subsidize the service. Check with your company's Human Resources department.
