Spare Rides - Carpooling App

Spare Rides connects you with people in Metro Vancouver for an amazing, shared commuting experience.

- How does Spare work?
I'm glad you asked! Just set up your commuting schedule as a rider or driver (or both) and let Spare take care of the rest.

- How can I ride with Spare?
Riding with Spare is very easy. Just set up a ride trip with the tap of a button, and get picked up by a nearby community driver that will take you to your destination.

- How can I drive with Spare?
Everyone can be a community driver, even if you are just commuting! Community drivers use Spare to help cover the cost of owning a car. No fixed schedule is required, making the service very different from traditional carpooling services. You will get matches with riders on your route, making sharing frictionless.
