App Features
Drivebudi provides customers with the easiest and fastest way to find affordable drivers to drive their light commercial trucks from point A to B without breaking the bank. Most of our competitors offer quotes that will take days or even weeks, but with our app, customers can instantly find the cost of driving a truck and helping to better plan their work. With our app, our customers can easily find two to any number of drivers they want, depending on the number of trucks they need. With this feature, they can easily find out the total cost of getting the number of drivers they want. Hardly can you find someone that has never rented, driven, and used the services of hauling companies, which means most everyday individuals have the necessary knowledge, skill and experience to become a driver.

Our business model offers our customers the most affordable and fast means of getting drivers.

How It Works
Drivebudi is a platform where individuals can connect with drivers fast. In areas where Drivebudi is available, you can use the Drivebudi app to request a driver. When a nearby driver accepts your request, the app displays an estimated time of arrival for the driver heading to your pickup location. The app will notify you when the driver is about to arrive. The Drivebudi app also provides info about the driver that will drive your rented truck, including first name, vehicle type, and license plate number.
Use the app to enter your item pickup location and preferred destination. The app will calculate the cost from your item location to your destination. When you arrive at your destination, you, the passenger, will offload the truck, and the time it took to offload is already added to your cost from the starting price. Payment is completed when the driver returns the truck back to the hauling company refueled. An extra charge will be added if there is a delay in offloading the truck. We advise our customers to get a truck reservation before using our app.
The driver will meet the customer at the item location, the driver and the customer will go to the nearest hauling company that the customer reserved a truck. Pickup of the truck, the cost of going to the Hauling company, is included in the starting price depending on the size of the truck.
