Vanpooling is a great way to save money and ride to work without the stress of driving. A vanpool consists of 4 to 15 people traveling together in a recent model van or SUV with low mileage leased from Enterprise. Members of a vanpool share all monthly expenses. The cost of vanpooling is also an eligible expense for the federal commuter tax benefit that can save up to 40% of the cost of your commute.

Vanpooling offers the following benefits:

This adds up to an average savings of $6,000 per year!
