Why Perth
Built for the way Perth moves
Long-haul rides without long-haul prices
WA's distances are brutal. Splitting the fuel on a 4-hour south-west run with two passengers can knock 60% off the cost.
Mining town commutes
Drivers regularly post rides between Perth and Kalgoorlie, Newman, Port Hedland, and Karratha. A seat in a carpool beats a charter ticket on most rosters.
Wine country weekends
Margaret River and the Swan Valley fill up every Friday night. Plenty of drivers post empty seats back to the city on Sunday afternoon.
