Rides to appointments in Fayetteville, GA Beta

Regular rides for someone who doesn't drive: weekly trips to the doctor, therapy, the hairdresser or church, with help in and out of the car.

Not yet Papalocal doesn't connect riders with paid drivers yet: Georgia regulates paid rides arranged through an app, so this waits on a legal review. Licensed local companies are listed below.

  • Door-to-door pickup and return on a regular schedule
  • Help getting in and out of the car, with a walker or cane if used
  • Walking the rider to the front desk and back to the car
  • Waiting during the appointment, or returning at a set time
  • A quick stop on the way home, such as a pharmacy or grocery pickup, if agreed

Ask before you hire

  1. Which days, times and addresses, and how long do the appointments usually last?
  2. How much help does the rider need: an arm to lean on, a walker in the trunk, a move from a wheelchair to the seat?
  3. Will the driver wait or come back, and is waiting time part of the price?

Questions people ask

How is this different from a one-time ride?

It's a regular schedule for someone who depends on it. Having the same driver every week means the rider always knows who is coming.

Can the driver come into the appointment?

Some riders like company in the waiting room and others prefer privacy. Ask the rider, and follow their wishes.

What if the rider uses a wheelchair?

Ask whether the driver's car can carry the chair and whether the rider can move into a car seat. Someone who has to stay in their wheelchair needs an accessible van.
