You may not get the same driver every time, however all our drivers will be happy to pick you up at your house and drop you off as close to your destination as possible.
Our drivers will pick up from your home and drop off as close to your destination as humanly possible. They will wait for usually no more than an hour while you complete your business or appointment, if however your appointment is likely to be longer than an hour this should be stated at the time of booking.
Our drivers are volunteers using their own cars. The mileage is from the drivers’ home and return charged at 45p per mile. The driver will issue a receipt on payment by the client.
Prices are charged per journey not per person if there is more than one person in the car (excluding the driver) the price will be shared.
The scheme is administered by Dial a Trip Ltd. We are all volunteers and volunteer drivers. We do not work evenings, weekends or bank holidays.
