CAR TO GO!
Now more than ever, businesses are looking for ways to cut costs. Here’s a money-saving option you may not have thought of: carsharing for your workplace!
If your business is paying to own and maintain a fleet or administering a time-consuming mileage reimbursement program, CAR TO GO might be for you.
CAR TO GO, Aspen’s carshare program, provides members access to a fleet of cars parked in convenient spaces around town for a small monthly fee. Vehicles include hybrids, wagons and a pickup truck. Members reserve cars via phone or on-line, paying only for the hours and mileage used.
Low rates include:
-Gas
-Insurance
-Maintenance
-24-hour roadside assistance
Detailed monthly statements can be customized with coding for your internal needs. In addition, program members receive discounts on airport shuttles from Colorado Mountain Express as well as long-term car rentals from National.
