About UZURV

Transportation gives people freedom – to work, to take care of their needs, and to enjoy their lives. UZURV is the assisted mobility marketplace and transportation network company for riders, funding organizations, and qualified providers that makes accessible transportation easy, safe, and efficient – so it just works.

UZURV uses technology and operational processes, guided by a world-class team, to improve transportation in communities across the country. Since 2017, we have tackled the toughest challenges transit agencies and community transportation programs face when arranging rides to people with disabilities and older adults. We solve for driver shortages, vehicle shortages, rising costs, and program inefficiencies, all while providing the rider the service they deserve.

We partner with nearly 50 programs in 16 states and Washington, D.C., and UZURV was recently certified as a 2025 Great Place to Work.
