Find a Ride OnlineWhat Winnipeg Seniors Are Saying
"I go to the Health Sciences Centre every two weeks for dialysis. RideCarpooling costs me $12 each way. The taxi used to cost $38. My daughter books it for me on her phone and the driver always helps me to the door."
Margaret T., 74
St. Vital, Winnipeg
"I stopped driving 3 years ago. My son set up RideCarpooling for me. I WhatsApp the number and they book my rides. The drivers are always polite and patient. Much better than waiting for a taxi."
Robert K., 81
River Heights, Winnipeg
"I use it for grocery shopping and visiting my grandchildren in Brandon. The Brandon trip costs $40 — the bus would take 3 hours and a taxi would be $200. I've recommended it to everyone in my building."
