Get to know HopSkipDrive

Alternative transportation for charter & private schools

HopSkipDrive partners with schools, districts, counties, and organizations to provide comprehensive transportation solutions for staff and students — including kids experiencing homelessness, in foster care, or with disabilities.

Vetted CareDriver Network

CareDrivers are highly vetted caregivers — parents, grandparents, former teachers, and babysitters — enabling rides with as little as 6 hours' notice and no cancellation fee outside that window.

Powerful RideIQ Technology

RideIQ lets clients book, cancel, modify, and track rides in one place, with end-to-end visibility for staff and families.

Safety-First Culture

A dedicated Safe Ride Support System and an annually published Safety Report keep every ride monitored and accountable.

BuyQ Member Benefits Include:

  • Rides arranged with as little as 6 hours' notice

  • No cancellation fee for changes made 6+ hours in advance

  • Real-time ride tracking via the Caregiver and CareDriver apps

  • Support for over 10,000 schools and 600+ district partners nationwide

Accessing the benefits of our BuyQ contract is easy. You can:

Not only does BuyQ deliver substantial time and cost savings, but they also serve as a true advocate for us in the market.

Their high level of support and genuine commitment to the success of our schools sets them apart. I wholeheartedly recommend BuyQ to any school seeking a procurement partner.
