Former carsharing service From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
UhaulCarShare (formerly "UCarShare")[1] was a for-profit carsharing service offered by U-Haul in nearly 40 cities in the United States until the program was shut down in February 2020 just ahead of the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] Those with a UhaulCarShare membership had use of a car, billable by the hour or by the day. However, use was limited to three days at a time.[3] Most often, Uhaul Car Share vehicles were operated in communities with colleges and/or universities nearby. "The goal of [Uhaul] Car Share [was] to give people an alternative to owning second and third cars, and to increase the use of public transit."[4]

UhaulCarShare's primary competitor was Zipcar (which, since 2007, includes the former Flexcar).[5][6]
Renters were assigned a unique code that was entered into a lockbox located near the vehicle, which will allow them to gain access to the key for the vehicle.
