The Pueblo Chemical Depot is located in southeastern Colorado, east of the City of Pueblo. The installation encompasses approximately 23,000 acres and includes a variety of buildings, structures and undeveloped areas. The depot’s mission is the safe, secure storage of the chemical weapons stockpile.

VPSI’s Vanpool program is now offered at Pueblo Chemical Depot. Federal employees are eligible to receive a monthly tax free allowance up to $230 month towards vanpool services. It is a month-to-month turnkey program which includes a commuter van, insurance, maintenance, road side assistance, loaner van, customer support service and a fuel card. Groups of 5-15 would share the ride from the same origin area and pick up others along the way. Contractors are welcome to join or start a new vanpool as well. Benefits will vary for contractors so check with your HR Dept. Read More
