Help with Rides?
NEIGHBORS DRIVING NEIGHBORS provides free and confidential rides for residents of Belgrade, Fayette, Manchester, Mt. Vernon, Readfield, Rome and Vienna who are not able to drive.
You must be registered with us to request rides.
To register, please contact us. It’s easy, free and confidential.
(While we are unlike a taxi service—as we ask for 5 days’ notice for ride requests—we do try to accommodate whenever possible.)
We can take you to medical appointments, the grocery store, pharmacy, hair salon, social events, or to other errands. Some ride with us regularly, others only occasionally, some are young, some are older. Can’t leave the house? We also provide grocery and pharmacy pick-up and delivery.
“I was very appreciative of Steve, knowing he’s there if I need him. I feel he’s a friend.”
To register as a rider, please call 207-860-0677 or email neighborsdrivingneighbors

Masking Policy
1. Masks
Masking is optional for both Riders & Drivers
2. Vaccination
If a rider has NOT received any COVID vaccinations, they will be required to wear a mask. (This is assuming there is a driver willing to provide the ride. We have a pool of drivers who have indicated a willingness to drive anyone regardless of their COVID vaccination status.).
3. Precaution
When drivers make their pre-ride confirmation calls the day before their scheduled ride, they should ask about any COVID contacts the rider might have had and any symptoms of respiratory infection. If present, masks should be worn.
