Self-Service Car Share
On-campus students have two options for inexpensive auto rental services, available by the hour, day or longer. Self-service car share can help reduce the number of cars on campus, introduce sustainable transportation to the GCU community and provide a cost-effective alternative to car ownership.
UhaulCarShare
UhaulCarShare partners with GCU to offer a car sharing program on campus. GCU students, faculty and staff can drive self-service cars by the hour or day 24/7. Use UhaulCarShare for running errands, shuttling friends and family to the airport, shopping or taking quick road trips during any time of the day or night. UhaulCarShare is far more convenient and cost effective than owning a car.
Rates
Our rates start as low as $4.95 per hour (plus mileage) and $62 per day with a low price guarantee. You can manage your account, make a new reservation or extend a current reservation. Log in and reserve any car 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You only pay for what you use!
