Coordinating group transportation shouldn’t feel like herding cats. But anyone who has ever tried for a corporate retreat, church outing, or a day at the stadium with friends knows that too often the focus shifts from enjoying the experience to figuring out who’s driving, who’s paying, and how to keep everyone together. That’s the gap Carolinas Transportation & Courier wants to fill.
Seeing the Gap and Building a Solution
Carolinas Transportation & Courier owner Larry Waker saw a common frustration: watching groups split up, stress out, and lose momentum when they were travelling together.
“Usually, you have that responsible person trying to match who’s going in what car or figuring out who’s paying for the Ubers,” he shared. “I thought, what if there was just one vehicle that could fit everyone, so they could keep the group energy up instead of letting it fade between destinations?”
Carolinas Transportation & Courier offers a simple, safe, and community-minded way to keep your group connected from start to finish with 14-passenger vans for everything from airport shuttles and corporate outings to family trips, football games, North Carolina vineyards, casinos, and more. Whatever your group dreams up, Larry wants to help facilitate.
That family aspect is important to Larry. One thing that separates them is that they have car seats.
“I had a family come in for the holidays, and they didn’t bring a car seat for the child. Because I had it ready, they were able to travel safely and comfortably.”
Transportation Based on Community
Though based in Monroe, Carolinas Transportation & Courier serves the Charlotte region and surrounding areas. Larry intentionally created a business model that could reach people on the outskirts who need reliable, group-based transportation.
His long-term vision includes hiring locally and even supporting youth programs with transportation. He doesn’t just want to be another business. He wants to be a community asset.
“Being part of the community and being a resource for the community is important to me.”
Who Carolinas Transportation & Courier is For
While the service is ideal for anyone who wants to keep their group together, the business has a sweet spot in three main areas:
- • Corporate hospitality: off-sites, team-building, networking events
- • Sports & social groups: think Panthers games, fantasy football drafts, or group events
- • Older adults: safe transportation to casinos, festivals, or social gatherings
“If you can dream the group outing, we can make the ride happen.”
