Passengers

At Drop, we are committed to serving you and creating the best and safest possible environment for you to reach your desired destination. As such, we have made changes and updates to our Fee Structure, Cancellation Fees & Policies and Hourly Hire service.

The major change is that we are switching to distance and time with our base rate of $25 with an additional $1.25 per km.

These changes will come into effect at midnight this Wed 13th June 2018. During the hours of 1am to 5am there will be a 15% surcharge added to the regular rate card.

These policy changes are intended to continue providing you with the best possible customer service and experience.

Drivers

Definitely. If you already have a job, you can drive for a few hours after work, or perhaps just on weekends. It’s up to you.

All DROP drivers are thoroughly screened. We require a police certificate of good character and your home address. We also ask that you ensure your car’s inspection approval is up to date.
