Customers are permitted to carry on only the number of bags that they are able to manage independently without the assistance of the driver. Due to space limitations and the time it takes to board the vehicle, the number of shopping bags is restricted to those that can be easily handled by the customer and carried aboard without delaying the vehicle. The carry-on items must fit within a certain space either on your lap or in front of your area. If a customer brings more than he/she is able to manage independently, it will be the customer's choice on whether to board with a manageable amount of items and find alternative transportation to carry the remaining packages, or decline the trip. If applicable, please note points may be assessed for declined trips. See our no show Paratransit policy.
