As Enterprise’s nearest branch is 15 miles away in Edinburgh, the new location brings access to vehicles even closer to residents and businesses in West Lothian. 

As well as offering a full range of vehicles for daily, weekly and long-term hire, including vans and premium vehicles, the new branch also offers automated, self-service rental via an on-site bay with an Enterprise Car Club vehicle. It can be rented by the hour or day either online or by mobile app and is available to customers 24/7, 365 days a year, even when the branch is closed. 

Services like Enterprise Car Club are becoming central to mobility and can be really effective as you can pick up a vehicle any time you need it. It also enables businesses the opportunity to offer their employees more flexible ways of staying mobile when they need to travel for work. 

In addition to renting vehicles in Livingston, Enterprise Car Club members can also book and access the U.K.’s most extensive car club network of 1,100 vehicles parked on street in more than 60 towns, cities and boroughs. Many Enterprise Car Club vehicles are located at transport hubs or railway stations to make it easier to travel around the UK. 

Enterprise Car Club membership is available to anyone age 19 years or older and costs from 2 pounds ($2.58) per month or 20 pounds ($25.77) per year. Vehicles are available from 4.50 pounds ($5.80) per hour including VAT and 15 pence (15 cents) per mile.
