For the most efficient service, please have all of the following information ready before calling to reserve a taxi:

1. The date you will need a taxi.
2. The time of day you wish to be picked up. Please remember that this is NOT your appointment time. This is the time you want to be picked up.
3. Please advise if there is an appointment time.
4. Please check with the dispatcher for pick-up time the day before the ride.
5. Medical facilities will not allow Shared-Ride to pick up a patient after sedation.

In order to provide service, you will be asked to give the following information:

• Your name
• Pick-up address (you must designate which entrance if there is more than one)
• Destination address and phone number
• Number of passengers
• Your phone number
• The need for wheelchair accessible vehicle

Please remember that we are a “Shared-Ride Taxi” service, and therefore, you must allow adequate travel time to and from appointments and allow for short delays, as others are scheduled to ride with you. Every attempt will be made to get you to your destination on time. Your taxi will arrive as close as possible to your scheduled pick-up time.

Information subject to change without notice.
