About
Van-Pools.com is a blog and online resource portal for commuters who want to learn more about the financial and environmental benefits of sharing rides. Van-Pools.com provides a forum for vanpoolers and other ride-sharers to access commute-related information, national trends and expert insights, share stories and gain access to unique and useful commute-related tools.
Do you have something that you’d like to share with other Van-Pools.com readers? An anecdotal commuting story? An astounding statistic you read about ride sharing? A funny photo? Or perhaps some fun reading material other vanpoolers might enjoy on the way to work? Well, we’d love to have you as a guest blogger on our site. Please send us your stories, jokes, statistics, photos and more to chris[dot]hooper[at]vpsiinc[dot]com.
We also welcome links to blogs and websites. So if you know of anything that’s not already in our blogroll, please feel free to pass it along.
Van-Pools.com is created and maintained by VPSI, Inc., which provides vanpools in 40 U.S. states and Europe. VPSI aims to educate the American public about commute alternatives and their impact on the environment and economy.
