Can a rideshare app really make your life better? We believe so. But we’re not all talk, we also like to walk the walk -- or rather, drive.
When we made Drover Rideshare, we looked around to find out what was missing from the rideshare landscape… and we found quite a few things that could be improved.
So here are the ten ways that using our app will make your life better. And it’s not just your life that’ll be improved. It’s also those around you -- read on to find out how!
1. We’re the Eco-Friendly Choice
One of our core values at Drover Rideshare is to help protect the local environment. That’s why you’ll always have the option to choose an electric car when you book a ride with us. Our electric cars are not only easier on nature, but they also cut maintenance costs in half. Those savings are passed on to our drivers, customers, and the local charities we donate to.
Tip: Check Drover Green and Drover Green Giant when you open the Drover Rideshare app.
2. Our App Is Really Handy
Just because we hug some trees from time to time doesn’t mean we’re averse to technology. Quite the contrary! We’ve taken great pride in developing our handy rideshare app for Android and iOS. It enables you to book a ride in advance or book one instantly -- whichever you prefer. You can also use it to track your journeys and see costs so there aren’t any surprises.
3. You Have Different Ride Options
We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all model, which is why we like to give you options when you book a ride with us. Remember the Drover Green and Drover Green Giant rides we mentioned earlier? Those are just two of the options you have when you use Drover. You can also choose a traditional car or a hybrid. Choose between the Drover Quad, Drover Crowd, or Drover Themes Ride for 4-6 passengers.
4. Our Prices Are Always Predictable
Remember back in the day when you hailed a cab and didn’t know how much it’d set you back? Those days are over now. We like to keep things simple and transparent, which is why we’re up-front about our prices. Each ride comes with a base fare of between $1-7 plus a $3 convenience fee. Then it’s just $0.30 per minute and $1 per mile after that -- pretty easy, huh?
5. We Reward You with Good Deals
Actually, let’s backtrack a bit. Yes, all our rides have the same rates… except when we do promotions. We’re not stingy about them, either. It’s not just first-timers who get a good deal. We like to reward our frequent riders with some discounts as well. You’ll get $5 off your 5th ride and $20 off your 10th ride with Drover. The best part? There are no price surges depending on what time of day you ride with us.
6. Our Drivers Are The Best
It’s not just our customers we care about. We know that you won’t have a good experience if our drivers aren’t taken care of as well. That’s why we offer new drivers a solid sign-up bonus as well as a competitive salary -- 70% of the fare. What’s more, we pay our drivers weekly instead of monthly. They even have the option to transfer their daily earnings directly to their bank account if they’ve made more than $100.

7. Caring and Respect Is Our Mantra
Another pillar of our company culture is caring and respect. We want you to feel at home and in good company when you book one of our rides. That’s why we vet each and every driver in person before they hit the road. They’re always professionally dressed and are required to keep the car clean at all times. As the cherry on top, our drivers will provide you with a bottle of water and some green mints for your journey. That way, you feel refreshed when you arrive.
8. You’ll See Familiar Faces
Readers of our blog will know that we care immensely about our local area. Not only do we love Nashville and Tennessee, but we also want to help build and maintain a sense of community. That’s why we have a system called “commute pairing.” We look at where you go frequently, and then we pair you with drivers that frequent the same routes. That way, you’ll always see a familiar face when you book one of our rides.
9. We Support Charity Together
Speaking of community, we’re well aware who make up the heart of Music City and Tennessee. It’s the local charity organizations that have made it their mission to help others. You’re also contributing to their work every time you ride with us. From every fare, we donate 2% to support a charity that the driver has chosen from a list of twenty different options.

10. We Listen
We want to make sure that our fleet is in tip-top shape at all times. That’s why we conduct anonymous inspections on a regular basis. But we also want the opinions of our drivers and our customers. So after each ride, both you and the driver get to rate the experience from one to five green stars. You also have the option to leave written feedback -- or even tip your driver!
Feeling Better Already?
Hopefully, you agree that these ten things will not only make your ride and your day a lot better. It’ll give you a lasting feeling of warmth that we hope you’ll pass on to everyone you come across once you reach your destination.
So, where are you headed? Download the Drover Rideshare app now and let us know.
