I have contacts backing up to V-Cloud, but want to also backup to google Drive.  Already have google drive loaded and logged-in.  Where do I go from here?

Have you tried exporting your Contacts to a .vcf file and saving on your local Google Drive?

Having your contacts backed up is important, Frustrated5492.  Your device will only backup to one backup service at a time. To backup your contacts to your Google account, you can try exporting them from Verizon Cloud and then importing them to Google Contacts.  If you are signed in with both accounts on your device, it will duplicate your contacts.  Here are the steps to export as a CSV from Verizon Cloud: https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-123994/.  Here are the steps that you can take to import the contacts to your Google Contacts: https://support.google.com/contacts/answer/1069522?hl=en.

if your contacts are in gmail they're available to any device.

export contacts as csv file, copy/paste into a document & drag into google drive.
