Carsharing
Access to a Car When You Need it
Gain access to a vehicle without the hassle and ongoing costs of owning and maintaining a car. Carsharing allows you to take transit, walk or cycle for some of your trips but gives you access to one, or often a fleet of vehicles, when a car is needed.
Why Carshare?
- Save money on car costs, insurance and maintenance
- Reduce the number of vehicles on the road
- Reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions
Individuals and companies can both benefit from easy and affordable access to a car whenever they need it, and save money on taxis, parking and the costs of maintaining one, or a fleet of vehicles. When it comes to parking within the City of Vancovuer, carshare vehicles can be parked in any available "permit only" on-street parking spot in residential neighbourhoods.
