Car clubs are great! They provide people with convenient access to a car, without all the costs and hassle of owning one. No need to buy a car up front, pay fixed rentals, sort out insurance or maintenance.
Car clubs are very much like rental cars, but much more accessible. Rather than having to pick up a car from a depot they are located in busy locations, on-street, in car parks and at business parks. They are also easy to book – online, by phone, or straight from an app.
You can reserve a car in advance or at a moments notice, with bookings available from as little as €9 per hour or €48 per day. When picking up the car, there is no need to see anyone, simply unlock the vehicle direct from your smart phone or with your membership card and off you go! It really is as simple as that.
As an individual member of a car club you’ll be able to benefit from flexible access to a car, without having to own one. Access to car club vehicles nearby the office can help to give you that added peace of mind, in the event of an emergency, if your just starting out with a car-free commute!
