Car-Sharing is a Hot Issue Again

The average cost for running ones own car for a given month is $664 nationally and this is not peanuts at all. That is why car-sharing companies such as Zipcar, Flexcar, and many others have become the choice of a big number of people, because they definitely help save a lot of money and hassle. What is involved is $40 annual payment and $10 an hour fee that will cover every related cost, including gas. Most users testified owning their own car is becoming a thing of the past in most big cities where there is adequate transportation system and whenever there is a need to have a car to do things such as shopping or doing errands, these cars become handy as they could be picked from many locations that are easily accessible at a walking distance from work or home.

After doing whatever is at hand all that is required is to bring them back to where they were picked and users who are members use a card issued by the companies to enter the cars. When they leave them finally all they have to do is to leave them as clean as they found them. The number of members is surpassing the 100,000 mark and the agencies are expected to outdo car rental companies soon that are not very expensive either, except that the paper work and some of the location inconveniences are not there.
