Mount Adams Transportation Service (MATS)

Providing the Transportation You Need


We will take you where you need to be:
  • Educational opportunities
  • Employment (limited)
  • Grocery shopping
  • Medical appointments
  • Social service appointments
This service is designed to enable Klickitat County residents who lack transportation resources to meet their basic needs.

We have both buses and private vehicles available in Goldendale and White Salmon, with each office serving all of Klickitat County. If you live in or west of Dallesport or Klickitat, please call White Salmon office for service. If you live to the east of these towns, you are in the Goldendale service area. We have paid and volunteer drivers between the two offices that provide transportation service to county residents.  Volunteers are licensed and insured and have had their vehicles and back round checks evaluated. Our van drivers are licensed and trained to serve your transportation needs.
