Discover the savings and freedom of Carshare

Owning and maintaining a car can be a hefty expense for collegeÌýstudents who are already paying for tuition and additional living expenses. Transportation Services at CU offers a wide range of options around campus, including buses, electric bikes and now e-scooters. However, sometimes students want to venture beyond what campus can provide, and that's now possible thanks to two Environmental Center partnerships with babyÖ±²¥app Carshare and Zipcar. Prices are even subsidized to make sure services are more affordable for students.Ìý

What is Carsharing?

Carsharing is similar to a short term car rental, but withÌýmore locations. Because there are many locations on campus and throughout central Boulder and Denver, you are not limited to finding a location near you. Carshare is a great option for those who don't own aÌýcar, or for those who choose to leave their vehicle at home but still need occasional access to a vehicle. Whether it's a small car, an all-wheel drive, a hybridÌýor a small truck, there are a variety of carshare vehicles available to choose from.
