Grocery Shopping Bus

Going shopping with the OWCS bus OWCS provides a bi-weekly Grocery Shopping Bus Service. Our OWCS van will pick up clients up at their home and drive them to the Carlingwood Loblaws. A volunteer remains with the clients at the store. The OWCS van then picks up the clients and their groceries at the store and drops them off at home. The driver and volunteer will also assist the clients by carrying their groceries into their home.

The Grocery Shopping Bus has four different routes and operates Tuesday and Wednesday each week. Each route is serviced every other week.

Cost: The Grocery Shopping Bus is $5.00 for the round trip.
