Guaranteed Ride Home

What is Guaranteed Ride Home?

If an unexpected event occurs, GCO members can redeem up to 5 Uber rides home or to a designated park and ride lot from work each year.

You will receive instant access to your first ride after you create an account and log your first clean commute trip, then simply log 8 clean roundtrip commutes before unlocking your next ride.

Users can now request the GRH through their account on the MyGaCommute website or the Ga Commute app.

The GRH program is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
