When to Be Ready

Cancellations
When you need to cancel a ride or change your pick up time, you must call the Cherriots call center as soon as possible.

No-Show Policy
A demonstrated pattern of no-shows, (see below for examples), is seriously disruptive to Cherriots Shop and Ride service. Within a 30-day period, three or more no-shows, or no-shows that are 10 percent of completed trips (whichever is greater), will be grounds for service suspension. Only no-shows and late cancellations that are within the rider’s control will be counted toward the policy.

Cancellations made less than two hours in advance of the pickup time, a cancellation at the door, or not being present or ready to leave within five minutes after the vehicle operator comes to the door are all considered no-shows. If a rider is a no-show on a ride starting from the rider’s home, the rider must call the call center to cancel any other scheduled rides no longer needed that day to avoid receiving additional no-shows.

Rules of the Road
You can bring one additional passenger on Cherriots Shop and Ride, regardless of his or her age. Your guest must pay the fare on both the Cherriots Shop and Ride Dial-a-Ride and Shopper Shuttle. You can also bring a personal care attendant. The personal care attendant must have the same pickup and drop-off location as the passenger. An attendant on the Dial-a-Ride rides for free. An attendant on the Shopper Shuttle pays the $1.25 one-ride fare.

To make sure there is room for all passengers on Cherriots Shop and Ride, there is a four bag maximum (bags must be no larger than a standard paper shopping bag).
