Enterprise CarShare is partnering with the University of Delaware (UD) to provide students, faculty, and staff with an on-campus, on-demand transportation solution. A service of Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Enterprise CarShare offers an affordable and convenient way to rent a vehicle by the hour, the day, or overnight.

In the U.S., Enterprise CarShare serves more than 125 university campuses and hundreds of businesses and government agencies in more than 35 states. Major cities served include Atlanta, Hoboken, Honolulu, Houston, Louisville, New York, Philadelphia, St. Louis, and Tampa — all supported by the Enterprise Rent-A-Car network, which has more than 5,800 offices — one located within 15 miles of 90% of the U.S. population.

UD students, faculty, and staff can now access a vehicle from one of several convenient locations, including Thomas McKean Hall, Pearson Hall, Morris Library, or Christiana Towers. In addition, a vehicle will also be available at Trabant University Center and Allison Hall after the new year.

Enterprise’s user-friendly technology allows renters to reserve vehicles 24/7, and the low hourly and daily rates include gas, insurance and 200 miles per day. To celebrate the launch of this partnership, Enterprise is waiving the application fee and the first year’s membership fee for all new UD members. In addition, new UD members will receive $10 in driving credits and $5/hour rates until Feb. 28.

Program membership is open to students, faculty and staff ages 18 and up. To enroll, applicants must register online and provide a valid University of Delaware email address. After receiving a membership card in the mail, members can rent a vehicle by following four easy steps. And, with the Enterprise CarShare app for iPhone and Android users, U.S. members can make or modify reservations, extend rentals and choose pickup locations, all from their mobile device.

Affordable Transportation Solutions

In thousands of communities of all sizes, Enterprise’s highly accessible network provides hourly, daily, and weekly car rentals as cost-effective and consumer-friendly modes of local transportation.

Many consumers, businesses, and government agencies in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. rely on their local Enterprise network to deliver carsharing technology’s speed and flexibility when it makes sense.
