UhaulCarShare (formerly "UCarShare") is a for-profit carsharing service offered by U-Haul in nearly 40 cities in the United States. Those with a Uhaul Car Share membership may have use of a car, billable by the hour or by the day. However, use is generally limited to three days at a time. Most often, Uhaul Car Share vehicles are operated in communities with colleges and/or universities nearby. "The goal of [Uhaul] Car Share is to give people an alternative to owning second and third cars, and to increase the use of public transit."
Uhaul Car Share's primary competitor is Zipcar (which, since 2007, includes the former Flexcar).
