HOW “GREEN” IS GREEN RIDE?
We get this question a lot. In fact, Green Ride isn’t green solely because of the color of our vehicles. It goes beyond color. We’re green because of our philosophy. Green Ride Charter Services has developed after our desire to create sustainable business practices for our shuttle service.
Located in Boulder, Colorado, it is important to us to take care of the environment and preserve the beauty that we’re fortunate to live in.
Green Ride Charter Services
OUR STORY
It’s not always easy for small businesses to compete with large corporations. But that’s exactly what Green Ride Charter Services did when we launched in 2012 with a mission to provide kind and reliable transportation options to the Boulder community. Despite going up against an 800-pound multinational, corporate gorilla, Green Ride thrived thanks to its core values of kindness, efficiency, honesty, integrity, and care: for people and the planet.
- A “nice and kind” philosophy
- Efficiency and reliability. It’s paramount.
- Honesty and integrity.
- Caring for people and the planet.
Nice & Kind
At the core of our philosophy is the belief in hiring “nice and kind” people. We believe that kindness is a value that should not be underestimated in business. We hire people who are considerate, compassionate, and empathetic because we want our customers to feel appreciated and valued. It’s our goal to make sure every customer interaction is positive, from the moment you book with us until you reach your destination.
Green Ride Charter Services takes pride in hiring staff who embody kindness in everything they do. From the moment you book your Green Ride shuttle service, you’ll be greeted with warm smiles and friendly conversation from our safe and conscientiously trained drivers. Each driver prioritizes safety and efficiency, getting you to your destination on time without sacrificing comfort or style.
Efficiency & Reliability
One of our top priorities is to be efficient and reliable. We understand that our customers count on us to be punctual, professional, and dependable. Our drivers arrive at least 15 minutes early for pickups, and our dispatch team monitors traffic and weather conditions to ensure we get you to your destination on time. We’re proud of our excellent safety record and maintain our fleet of vehicles to the highest standards.
Transparency
Green Ride also believes that transparency is key to building trust with our customers. We’re honest about our rates, policies, and procedures, even when things don’t go according to plan. During a shuttle service, if we encounter unexpected delays or issues, we communicate with our guests promptly and provide updates throughout the journey. We know that our customers appreciate honesty and value the trust that we’ve earned.
Care
Green Ride Charter Services is committed to caring for people and the planet. We recognize that our business can have an impact on the environment, and we take steps to reduce our carbon footprint.
Travel in Peace With Green Ride Charter
Travel Green
As the world becomes more aware of the impact we have on the world, sustainable solutions have become a priority. Green Ride provides sustainable shuttle services throughout our community. Our mission is to provide easy sustainable solutions for our customers. We understand that every choice we make can have a significant impact on the environment, and by choosing Green Ride, you’re helping to create a more sustainable future.
Green Ride is designed to provide a safe, reliable, and efficient mode of transportation that’s beneficial to the environment. The shuttle service is perfect for a variety of events, such as weddings, corporate meetings, sporting events, and other social gatherings. Customers can enjoy a stress-free, comfortable ride, knowing that they’re making a positive impact on the environment.
Our Green Purpose
We aim to reduce the carbon footprint of our guests by removing cars from the road. For instance, when a group of 25 people ride a Green Ride shuttle to an event, potentially 24 vehicles are taken off the road, thereby reducing carbon emissions. By choosing Green Ride, you’re contributing to protecting the environment.
Depending on the event or wedding in attendance, Green Ride Charter Services is the safest choice. At wedding receptions, with open bars and heavy pours, don’t risk driving on unfamiliar roads in an altered state of mind. Choose safety as well as other drivers’ safety. Green Ride Charter Services is here to reliably take you to your destination and bring you home or to the hotel.
Green Ride also offers convenience to travelers. It eliminates the hassle of finding parking spaces, worrying about directions or traffic, and worrying about leaving valuables in vehicles. With Green Ride, customers can relax and enjoy the ride, knowing that they’ll arrive at their destination on time and in style.
Green Ride is cost-effective. We offer competitive rates that are comparable to other transportation services, yet provide a more environmentally friendly option. So if you’re looking for an affordable yet eco-friendly way to travel, a Green Ride shuttle service is the perfect green option.
We are a sustainable transportation solution that is trustworthy and reliable. Our expert drivers prioritize the safety and comfort of our passengers. We follow strict safety protocols and guidelines, ensuring that every ride is safe and secure. Green Ride is also licensed and insured, so customers can have peace of mind knowing that they’re in good, green hands
WE ARE “GREEN”
Green Ride’s mission is to give our community not only the means to choose a sustainable shuttle service, but also to encourage our customers to choose it.
Safe & Conscientious Driving
One of the ways we ensure safe and conscious driving is by accelerating and decelerating slowly. We believe that driving slowly is safer, environmentally friendly, and reduces the wear and tear on our vehicles. As a result, we drive a maximum of 70-72 mph on a road that allows 75 mph. We believe that slower driving makes the ride smoother, quieter, more enjoyable, and conserves fuel. This policy helps our vehicles last longer, resulting in conserving energy.
Green Ride Charter Services never idles our vehicles unnecessarily. We turn off our vehicles whenever we load or unload passengers to reduce fuel consumption. It reduces emissions and saves fuel, creating a more eco-friendly ride.
We Practice The “Four R's”: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Re-purpose.
Our office is furnished with repurposed materials, and our reservation agents and planners work from home, which helps to reduce office days and vehicles on the road. We recycle both in our offices and vehicles. As we hire for our shuttle service we look for local people who care about the environment, some of our employees ride or walk to work when weather permits. We believe that every action, no matter how small, can make a significant difference in protecting the environment.
We know this might sound “corny,” but it’s the little things that we all can do to help sustain our planet. 8 billion people, planet-wide, doing “little things” can have a global effect. It takes more than a village, but a world of villages. We are committed to doing our little part here at Green Ride Charter Services.
