Fare Adjustment Surcharge For Non-Primary Service Area Pick-Up/Drop-Off (Copy)
GoSherpa Transport Fares are quoted for pick-ups and drop-offs undertaken inside our Primary Service Areas (described below). A fare-adjustment surcharge applies to a pick-up and/or a drop-off undertaken outside these Primary Service Areas (basically, the surcharge would approximate the taxi fare and, if applicable, tolls of a taxi ride between our Primary Service Area and the pick-up/drop-off location. It pays for the added costs (including tolls) for getting to and from the outer areas.
GoSherpa’s service areas are described below in general terms. A per-location surcharge may apply. (Such a surcharge is NOT assessed per passenger but is “shared” by all passengers at a pick-up/drop-off location). If you are unsure which of the following categories your pick-up and/or drop-off location falls into, please contact GoSherpa to inquire.

This surcharge is assessed for each location. Thus, if only your pick-up or your drop-off location is to be undertaken outside our Primary Service Area, then, add one surcharge only. If both your pick-up and drop-off locations are outside our Primary Service Areas, please add two surcharges - one for your pick-up and one for your drop-off locations.
