The COAST Zipcar incentive is currently unavailable. Parking and Transportation is working with Zipcar and hopes to have it back in place soon. 

The University of Houston offers on-campus car sharing through Zipcar to students, faculty and staff 18 years of age or older. 

Zipcar is an option for COAST members, who can choose either:

• $300 in annual Zipcar drive credit, or
• $120 in Zipcar drive credits plus $180 in METRO fare money

At the current time, there is a Zipcar located at two places on campus:

• University Lofts
• Cougar Village 1

Zipcar membership is $35 annually. This is not subsidized by COAST and must be paid for by the individual. Zipcar members have access to a variety of vehicles that can be used for a small hourly charge. Actual rates vary by make and model; however, the price covers gas and insurance, so it might be cheaper than driving your own car.

• To apply for Zipcar membership, visit Zipcar's University of Houston page.
• Zipcar members who are interested in joining COAST and choosing the Zipcar option should make an appointment to meet with the COAST team.
