Carsharing is a more sustainable option of transport that has a well documented positive impact on public transportation, biking, walking, and reducing the number of personally owned vehicles. There are numerous studies by other round trip carsharing organizations, academics, and consultants documenting that every round trip carshare vehicle replaces 9-13 personal vehicles.

Contact us to see how Colorado CarShare can help your students, faculty and staff Get there Better, while reducing traffic, parking and carbon emissions.

Application Procedure

Step 1. Am I Eligible?

You must have at least 2 years of licensed driving experience, so you must be at least 18 years old.
If you are 18 – 21 years old you must have a clean driving record (something your mom would be proud to show off ).
If you are over 21 you still need to have a very good driving history. A few minor incidents/violations will be accepted, but nothing major like a DUI.
If you consider yourself a permanent Colorado resident then you must get a Colorado driver’s license within 30 days of establishing permanent residency. (You are responsible for following all applicable State laws.)
If you are a temporary Colorado resident (such as a student or visiting professor) you can apply using your out of state license.
If you are a temporary Colorado resident and have a foreign driver’s license, you must provide with us a current, official driving history record (in English).
For more instructions on how to obtain a foreign driving record, please visit this page.
