the low-car diet returns
Last year, 300 folks across Zipcar nation turned in their car keys for a month as part of our Low-Car Diet. And, in addition to cutting congestion, they also walked 85% more, biked 136% more and decreased their miles driven by 71%. Pretty impressive, eh? Starting July 15, a new crop of participants will begin their journey: one full month living without a primary car. Of course, we'll help out with a Zipcar membership and drive time, plus some goodies from our local partners. Do you know someone who would be a perfect Low-Car Diet candidate? We'd love to hear from them. Follow this link to the participant entry form.
 
Note: A limited number of eligible participants will be selected.
you deserve more green
Whether it's the ozone that's got you worried or the economic squeeze, "More Green" Zipcars (i.e. $7 hybrids) are here to save the day. We've packed the city with these $7/hour wonders to help you get around for less. They are perfect for errands and quick trips, plus the cost (which includes gas and insurance, of course) won't break the bank. But remember: "More Green" cars can only be reserved by the hour; no day rates apply. To find these Zipcars in your neck of the woods, just go here and search by rate.

Note: Special rate does not apply to all hybrid cars.

Summertime means road trips and cutting out of work to go to the beach. While you're thinking of protecting yourself with SPF 30, we wanted to remind you of the best way to keep yourself protected in your Zipcar: Damage Fee Waivers. Damage Fee Waivers can reduce or eliminate the out-of-pocket costs associated with an at- or no-fault accident. While we hope that our members are always safe and sound, we know that accidents do happen. Learn more or purchase a Damage Fee Waiver here.
