Transportation for Veterans

At Delmarva Community Services, Inc., we are committed to serving veterans of our nation’s armed forces. Veterans are welcome to ride at no charge on the fixed or deviated routes.  There is a charge for door-to-door service.

Accessibility

All of our buses are fully wheelchair equipped to accommodate wheelchairs, power scooters and individuals who cannot climb stairs. Our drivers pay particular attention to riders needing extra help - they receive extensive, mandated training to serve our riders' special needs.

When you call for door-to-door service, let us know of any limitations you have so we can meet your needs. On regularly scheduled trips, explain any special needs to the driver picking you up.  Portable oxygen respirators and concentrators are accepted on all buses.
