Manage Your Vanpool
Applying for a vanpool permit
To apply for a vanpool permit, download and complete the vanpool permit application. Each vanpool member must meet the eligibility requirements for the Commute Club, and each member must complete and sign the application.
Once your application is complete, you have several options to submit it:
- Bring it to our office at 340 Bonair Siding
- Fax it to 650.724.8676
- Email it (after scanning the completed application) to commuteclub@stanford.edu
- Mail it to 340 Bonair Siding, Stanford, CA 94305-7255 (or MC: 7255)
We will notify you when your permit is ready to be picked up. Mail delivery normally takes 7 to 10 days from the date we receive your application. If you select “pick up,” you can expect to hear from us within 4 to 7 days.
If your vanpool changes or ends
If your vanpool changes (e.g., one member is on leave) and still has at least six eligible members, you must submit a new vanpool application. In most cases, you will be able to continue using your existing permit. If your vanpool ends or doesn’t have at least seven eligible members, your vanpool permit is no longer valid and must be returned.
Notify Parking & Transportation Services whenever there is a change or expected change in your vanpool to retain vanpool privileges for eligible members and/or to avoid penalties. If you have further questions about vanpooling, call us at 650.723.9362 or email us at commuteclub@stanford.edu.
Please note: Fraudulent enrollment in a Stanford vanpool is a violation of Stanford's policies. Anyone found to be in violation of the vanpool policies set forth by Parking & Transportation Services (P&TS) will immediately forfeit Commute Club privileges and are subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment or expulsion.
