Re:Member is a series of helpful tips and reminders for Peg City Car Co-op members.

This month’s topic: Transporting Pets!

We allow our Members to bring their pets along for the ride, provided they are in a carrier. If they’re too big to fit in a carrier, they must be transported in the cargo area of the vehicle, with a protective barrier  – like a tarp, blanket, or towel – in between them and the upholstery. We also encourage pet owners to bring a brush or a sticky lint roller with them to make sure that no hair is left behind.

If you’re hauling potted flowers for your garden, bringing toys back from the beach, or coming home from the park with your tuckered-out puppy, the vehicle is going to need more than just a quick tidy. Members should book extra time to stop in at a detailing centre, do a thorough vacuuming (don’t forget to fill out the log book and staple the receipt to it!) and Peg City will reimburse the account in the form of driving credit.

We want carsharing to be a clean, enjoyable experience for everyone – thank you!

This month’s topic: Multi-day Bookings!

Did you know that Members benefit from free hours between midnight + 7AM, as well as a daily rate cap of 8 hours? If you book for 10 hours, you only pay for 8. That means Members pay a maximum hourly rate of $38/day, and Member Plus drivers pay just $22/day.

Take a day trip out to Bird’s Hill Provincial Park for as little as $39! 

We offer the convenience of a car rental, with none of the hassle. Once you join as a Member and have your key fob in hand, you make your own bookings online, at the pick-up and drop-off times that suit your schedule.

If you’re looking for a way to get out of the city for the afternoon, or maybe for a few days – members can make multi-day bookings, for up to two weeks at a time! – we’ve got a set of wheels for you. Looking to drive further? Our per kilometre rate drops from $0.34/km to $0.17 after the first 50 kilometres. Try using our Trip Calculator to find the rate that fits your needs.

In June, we are celebrating seven years of carsharing in Winnipeg! 

We are closing in on 1000 members, and we would love nothing more than to hit that goal just in time for our birthday. As a fun incentive, we will give a $75 driving credit to any existing member that refers someone new to the co-op! They can join our program as a Casual or full Member, and they will ALSO receive a $75 driving credit. Additionally, BOTH drivers will be entered to win a prize of a $100 driving credit.

For new members, use the promo code BIRTHDAY75 when registering, and then let us know who referred you to Peg City. Don’t have any friends that carshare with us? That’s okay! We’ll give you the driving credit anyways – consider it a party favour!
