Ithaca Carshare for your business or nonprofit is convenient and affordable. A business membership includes up to ten drivers on our It’s My Car plan, and you’ll get one itemized monthly bill with all usage costs.
You and your staff get 24/7 access to our fleet of reliable vehicles, and you won’t have to worry about the cost and hassle of owning and maintaining cars for your business.
Plus, your employees enjoy the benefit of a free personal Just in Case membership when they are a driver on your organizational account.
In addition to membership fees, we charge for time and distance on each trip.
We also have to add 8% NY sales tax and a 12% NY special passenger car rental tax to your hourly and mileage charges.

Additional Details
Full Day Rate
Most vehicles can be booked for full days at a reduced rate. Cars in our highest demand locations do not get the full day rate. The full day rate caps hourly charges at 10 hours in any 24 hour period. For trips over 24 hours, additional hourly or daily rates will be added as needed. For example, a 26 hour trip is one day plus 2 hours.
What local businesses and organizations are using Ithaca Carshare?
Small businesses such as Home Green Home find our plan perfect to occasionally deliver furniture, or fill in as a back up vehicle if the work van is already out. For downtown businesses, free personal memberships are a great benefit to offer employees as part of a commuter package for staff who don’t want to search for parking every day.
Cornell University Student and Campus Life rotates staff drivers through their account each semester, using carshare cars to pick up program supplies and transport program participants.
Our low rates for governmental and nonprofit agencies are a great deal, Ithaca Carshare helps Friends in Service Helping, the Ithaca-Tompkins County Transportation Council, Hospicare, Sciencenter, and many others with flexible access to vehicles.
What our business members are saying
“We love the benefit of free individual memberships offered to staff members. Now, if there are personal errands that need to be run or an emergency comes up, our staff knows they have access to Ithaca Carshare. Since our office is downtown, we are never more than a couple of blocks away from a car.” – Teresa Linde, Ithaca-Tompkins County Transportation Council
“It’s so convenient. I use the Green Street car to deliver prescriptions to private residences, as well as several group homes and offices.” – Green Street Pharmacy
“We use carshare vehicles to deliver mattresses and furniture to our customers. It is quick and convenient compared to typical rental trucks, and we like supporting the mission of Ithaca Carshare in reducing Ithaca’s car fleet.” – Joe Nolan, Home Green Home
