Developers and Property Managers
Peg City Car Co-op offers carsharing for developers and property managers so you can save money on your project and make your site more appealing to potential residents!
Carsharing for Developers
You already know parking’s expensive. Minimum requirements reduce developable space and can even compromise a project’s viability. That’s where Peg City can help! We’re an experienced partner when it comes to carsharing for developers.
By purchasing carsharing services with Peg City, developers can ease parking pressures and cut carbon emissions. One carsharing vehicle takes as many as 15 privately owned cars off the road. That lowers emissions and parking congestion. In return, the City of Winnipeg reduces minimum parking requirements for eligible developments. This can help you reduce construction costs and make more space for residents instead of cars!
1 carsharing vehicle takes as many as 15 cars off the road.
75% of our members commute to work by bus or active transportation.
People who carshare reduce their C02 emissions by 30-50%.
40% of members have a household income above 100 thousand.
Over 50% of our members are between the age of 26 and 55, plus recent growth in the 55+ demographic.
80% of our membership hold one or more university degrees.
BENEFITS TO DEVELOPERS
- Reduce parking ratios and save money or add density. Our vehicles are shared among as many as 30–40 individuals.
- Carsharing is an attractive selling point! Research shows that apartments with minimal to no parking sell better with carsharing on-site.
- Collaborate with Peg City to offer your residents a free membership.
- Work toward your green building accreditation! LEED and other green building accreditors provide points for carsharing.
BENEFITS TO RESIDENTS
- Members get the benefits of car ownership without the hassle. No need to pay for fuel, maintenance, or monthly parking!
- Carsharing is more affordable than ownership! The CAA estimates that owning a car costs $12,000 a year on average. The typical Peg City member spends between $600 and $1,200 annually.
- Peg City membership opens access to every vehicle in our fleet. We also offer discounted carsharing with our partners in cities like Montreal, Toronto, and Edmonton.

“Carsharing has been key to our downtown developments. By adding Peg City cars to our lots, we free up space for more tenants and improve project viability. Many tenants also use Peg City’s Enterprise program for affordable car access without owning one.”
Jeremy Reid – University of Winnipeg Community Renewal Corporation
“As an authorized driver with ACU’s corporate account, Peg City Car Co-op has been invaluable. I’m able to use a car when I need one and never have to worry about parking downtown. I use it to visit our many branches throughout Winnipeg and Manitoba and have used the vans for social impact tours with ACU leaders. Carsharing is an efficient and practical solution for my day-to-day work needs as well as an important component of ACU’s commitment to supporting green commuting.”
