The architect – measuring success

“Our company recently signed up with The Company Car – part of the Co-operative Auto Network (CAN).  I was really impressed with the set-up right from the start.  The system is very user-friendly and easy to navigate for the first time user.  I was equally impressed with the technical and customer support that I got over the phone.  TCC has been a real asset to our company and I like how it broadens my transportation options.  There are lots of times when I need transportation in and around the lower mainland for short trips.  It offers me the freedom of using a vehicle when public transit isn’t viable and, with minimal planning, it’s less expensive than a cab.  I would highly recommend The Company Car for groups and individual employees.”

The board president – a sweet synergy

“The Company Car has been an invaluable asset to the Vancouver Fruit Tree Project!  We are a small, grassroots not-for-profit organization that coordinates groups of volunteers to pick backyard fruit and our teams use The Company Car to transport equipment and deliver fruit to community programs throughout Vancouver.  By using The Company Car we are able to coordinate many more picks than we would if we had purchased our own vehicle, increasing the social impact of our programs.  We also appreciate the flexibility of The Company Car which allows us to ‘lie dormant’ during our off-season, sign up multiple drivers, and to use vehicles in locations throughout Vancouver.  All in all, The Company Car is a choice that just makes sense for the Vancouver Fruit Tree Project – fiscally, socially, and environmentally!”

The manager – making a clean getaway

“The Company Car has been invaluable to our small business.  We weren’t ready to take on the costs and responsibility of our own vehicle and were delighted to discover we didn’t have to.  From the customer service, to the on-line booking, to the vehicles themselves, we have been extremely happy with The Company Car.  We’ve been using the service almost every business day for several months now and haven’t had any problems – not one.  I highly recommend The Company Car.”

And more!

Many smaller not-for-profits have been able to expand and provide perks (such as car sharing for personal use) to their employees at no cost to them.

Evergreen uses our vehicles to get to schools to landscape them into greener places and BC Coalition of People with Disabilities has a puppeteering group that goes to schools to teach awareness of people with disabilities.

Many architectural and landscape architectural firms and environmental consultants find it handy to be able to reserve a vehicle from close to the office or close to home for regular site visits or spur of the moment meetings – up to a year in advance!
