Getting a Vanpool Started is Easy!

"Vanpooling offers us a way to help alleviate traffic congestion while benefiting our environment, our employees and our company. It's the best deal in town!"

• Vanpool Hawaii makes forming a vanpool as easy as 1-2-3. It only takes one driver and three riders to start. Share the idea of vanpooling to work with friends, co-workers and neighbors. Children may join as long as a parent rides in the vanpool. Having problems finding three people? No problem! Vanpool Hawaii maintains a database of other riders who could join your vanpool. Just pick up the phone and dial 596-VANS.
  
  
• Once your vanpool group is formed, recruit someone to volunteer to be the primary driver. The driver will responsible for picking up and dropping off riders and has the added bonus of having the vehicle on weekends. Plan ahead and have alternate drivers available in case of an emergency or in the event that the primary driver is unable to drive the vanpool. The primary driver must be at least 25 years of age. Each must have a clean driving abstract and current driver's license, and be employed full-time or a full-time student.
  
  
• Complete and submit the Commuter Vanpool Application Form (Section I only).
  
  
• Once the application is submitted, Vanpool Hawaii will contact you about providing driver abstracts for the primary and alternate drivers, and a list of your passengers and their commuter information. Complete the Passenger Information Sheet on-line.
  
  
• Upon final review, consider yourself approved! We will set up a time to meet with you to hand over the keys to your very own vanpool. The first vanpool payment will be due at this time.

• Check out the VPSI video called The Vanpool Difference to learn about vanpool safety to help you get started.
