Carsharing for Developers
Peg City Car Co-op offers carsharing for developers 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!
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 $8,000 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 for Property Managers
Is your property already in or close to our existing network? Do you have a free space you’d like to offer Peg City for carsharing? We’d love it if you got in touch with us!
Peg City also partners with property management firms to incentivise carsharing in their building. We call this program Enterprise. Pay a $1000 deposit for your building and give your residents access to all the benefits of Peg City membership without the $500 share. We’ll send you brochures and information – everything you need to get your residents carsharing! Send us an email to start the conversation.

FAQS
What is carsharing?
Will you provide a carshare vehicle anywhere in Winnipeg?
Our service area is in Winnipeg’s core neighbourhood. Is your development outside of our current vehicle network? Don’t hesitate to contact us at [email protected]. As the co-op expands, we aim to broaden service to other neighbourhoods.
What will it cost?
We provide a few different simple and easy payment options. All prices include a compact car, all setup costs, fees, and taxes. One simple price with no hidden costs. Once a development is complete and an agreement is finalized, the developer has no additional financial obligations! We maintain, insure, and take care of all liability.
When am I released from financial obligations?
Once an agreement is finalized and the project fee is provided, the developer is released from all financial obligations. Peg City Car Co-op is responsible for maintaining, insuring, and absorbing all costs associated with carsharing, including all liabilities associated with the use of the carsharing vehicle.
