Boomerang Rides

WE PUT SAFETY FIRST!

Boomerang is a transportation service geared specifically for children ages 5-17. Boomerang is here to relieve the stress of getting your children to school, after-school activities, practice, lessons, dental appointments, camp, etc. We currently serve the residents of Sioux Falls, SD, and its’ surrounding areas. Boomerang hours of operation are currently Monday through Friday 7:00 am to 6:00 pm.

OUR MISSION: It takes a village to raise a child and we want to become an extension of your family by providing safe and dependable transportation for your precious cargo - your children. You Can Count On Us!

DRIVER SCREENING

We put safety first through best-in-class driver screening. Drivers must be at least 21 years of age, have at least 5 years of caregiving experience, and pass a rigorous 15 point certification which includes local and federal background checks, DMV checks, stringent 25-point vehicle inspection, and an in-person interview.

SAFETY FEATURES

· When scheduling a ride, you can provide the driver with specific pick up and/or drop off instructions such as walking them to soccer practice and ensuring handoff with the coach or signing into school.

· Drivers will provide secret code words that you have included in your profile. Your child will be asked for their birth date, which the Driver will verify through your profile details.

· You will receive Driver details including a photo of the driver and vehicle as well as details of the vehicle such as make/model/color and license plate. The Driver will be wearing a bright green Boomerang Driver t-shirt and also have a Boomerang sticker in the front and rear windows of their vehicle to ensure your child knows exactly who is picking them up.

· The Driver will check-in 60 minutes prior to the pickup time and you will receive a notification.

· You will receive notifications throughout the ride - when the driver starts the ride; when the driver arrives at the pickup location; after Driver has successfully verified your child; when the Driver is on their way to drop off location and when the ride is successfully completed.

· You will also be able to monitor the Driver in the app from when they begin the ride and are en route to pickup location until the Driver has completed the drop-off instructions and your rider is safely at the drop-off destination.

IT’S AS EASY AS 1, 2, 3…
