- We are looking for a regular or long box truck with NO crew cab. Something newer than a 2000 but under $10,000, automatic with less than 150,000km to replace the Ranger in Nelson. If you know of anything that might fit this description please contact the office 250-352-2033.
- At the AGM it became apparent that the pricing structure is changing people's desire for the type of vehicle they want to be driving. Please use the link on the booking page "couldn't get what you wanted?" to let us know if you would have preferred an economic vehicle instead of a mid-sized for your trip for example. This will help us in purchasing decisions as we adjust our fleet to meet the members changing needs.
- The 1999 Caravan in Nelson has been relocated to 1512 Vancouver Street. Please do your best to park in front of this address.
- Our board is down to five from the possible nine we could have. We would love to have a full board to keep our organization full of energy! You do not have to live in Nelson to be part of the board.
- Do you want to come cheer on the Carshare Slo-Pitch team? Click HERE to view our playing schedule. We are full of enthusiasm and potential!
- We will be sharing a booth with the Eco Society every second Wednesday and need volunteers to man the booth. Do you want to attend markets in your community? We would be happy to pay the market fees and raise the profile of Carsharing to grow your branch.
Reminders.
- If you return a vehicle late it could be very costly. If you have inconvienced another member you will be charged for any taxi costs and their trip! Please extend your trip time as needed and contact your coordinator if you can't make it back on time.
- Please fill the vehicles with gas if you can and the min is a 1/2 tank of gas upon return. This helps all members and the carshare run smoothly.
- Please remember that a minimum booking on a Carshare vehicle is 1/2 hour. You cannot book a vehicle for 1/4 of an hour due to our 1/4 hour grace period.
- Reminder about reporting vehicle damage: if the damage is serious give us a call in the office (250-352-2033 or 250-509-2002 for the emergency cell in Nelson or your local coordinator). If you report an issue in the log book we won't know about it until the 10th of the following month! For larger issues we'd like to know sooner than that so we can get it fixed.
