Car Sharing
Car sharing is a flexible option for many drivers. It means easy, 24-hour access to a network of vehicles stationed throughout the Portland metro area. Cars are shared on a per hour rate that includes gas, maintenance and insurance.
Car sharing can also help you use various travel options. For example, take MAX, the bus or bike to work, then, as needed, rent a car on an hourly basis to drive to your lunch appointment, meeting or even a weekend getaway at the beach. Or, if your family owns one car, use a car-sharing service for those occasions when you need a back-up car or truck.
Benefits of car sharing
Car sharing is the solution for those times when you need a car. It's a lot like car rental, but more convenient and with more benefits like:
A practical alternative to owning a personal vehicle
Lower fixed costs and higher variable costs than private vehicle ownership
Affordable use of a vehicle--you save on gas, insurance and maintenance costs
Wide variety of vehicles to choose from
Providing for a more efficient use of parking spaces
An increased use of public transit and contributes to sustainable communities
