MyCarpools is for both Drivers and Passengers. You may wish to do both - (E)ither - it's up to you. Just think...Drive one week, and be a passenger the next. It's entirely up to your individual carpool.
For members of the public registration is free. Corporations and organizations that want to establish and run a branded, private carpool service for their employees or customers can contact us for more information.
Most carpooling services provide electronic bulletin boards, which allows your information to be viewed by all.
With MyCarpools your information is secure, the only things visible to others are:
We don't show anything else.
It could be that your address is in a new street or suburb where that data is not yet made available for our database. If so try nominating an address of a major street or road near you, the data base may then be able to show you that location and will proceed to search out carpool partners for you using the alternate address as your departure point.
No Problem! Simply log into the site, and click the "My Carpools" link on the left hand menu. Click the "Cancel Carpools" button at the bottom of the list, and select which days you would like to withdraw from. Your carpool partners will be notified by email of your withdrawal, and you can then search for more matches.
We ask these questions because we want to match you with-like minded travelers whenever possible. Asking you to nominate a number of personal preferences ('likes' and 'dislikes') helps you and your potential partners to decide who to carpool with. The preferences you select are displayed to a potential carpool partner during the matching process. You may also view the preferences of a potential carpool partner before deciding to carpool with them. Your Contact Details are never made available for public viewing. MyCarpools is designed with safety and privacy in mind.
Users can register as either:
A MyCarpools Portal is a Destination Based Carpooling scheme set up by a host organisation. These portals are for use either by employees of the host or may be available for use by the public as well, such as might be the case where a Portal is established by a shopping centre or sporting venue. Other organisations and sites that could benefit from a MyCarpools portal include; Councils, Schools, Universities, Construction Sites, High Rise Towers, Airports, Rail Stations, Hospitals, Industrial Park Developers, Factories, Entertainment Venues, Shopping Plazas, Clubs and the list goes on! So if you think your company or employer would like to implement a MyCarpools Portal feel free to contact us for an obligation free quote.
