How to Use Rideshare

Review the current requests to see if any of them meet your needs. Respond to those that do to coordinate the details of your shared ride. If you do not find a request that meets your needs, post your own rideshare request. Select the appropriate rideshare category (one-time trip or regular commuting) when posting your request. Be sure to include how you would like to be contacted by those responding to your request.
