<div>'''Car-sharing''' is the notion that low-car households can save money by owning fewer cars and instead renting autos by the hour or the mile. It was pioneered in 1998 by [[Car Sharing Portland]], the first commercial car-sharing service in the United States.<br />
<br />
The [[City of Portland]] was also the country's first local government to offer free on-street public parking spaces to car-sharing companies. This has since become a key subsidy supporting the commercial car-sharing business.<br />
<br />
Car-sharing differs from [[car rental]] because it is designed and priced for relatively short errands and routine trips rather than long excursions. Car-sharing companies typically place cars directly in the community rather than at business locations. This makes it convenient for more people to use the cars on a day-to-day basis.<br />
<br />
== Car-sharing in Portland ==<br />
<br />
* [[Zipcar]], the successor to Car Sharing Portland, operates most of the shared cars in the [[Portland]] area.<br />
<br />
* [[UCarShare]], offered by [[wikipedia:U-Haul|U-Haul]], has several locations around town. Because the service charges a low hourly rate plus a per-mile rate, it is best for people making very short trips.<br />
<br />
* [[WeCar]], offered by [[wikipedia:Enterprise Rent-a-Car|Enterprise Rent-a-Car]], serves [[Oregon State University]] in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corvallis,_Oregon Corvallis] and the [[University of Oregon]] in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene,_Oregon Eugene].<br />
<br />
== Future of car-sharing ==<br />
<br />
Some companies, including Boston-based [http://relayrides.com Relay Rides], are developing programs that would help people make money by sharing their cars with other people.<br />
