Once you have been approved, to schedule a trip, call SCAT from 7:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. the day before your desired trip. If you are planning a Monday trip, call the prior Friday for your reservation. When scheduling your trip, please have the following information ready in the order listed:
- Have your SCAT ID number ready;
- Know your appointment time or the time you would like to be dropped off and when you want to return;
- Have the address of where you are going;
