Reserve a bus, trolley, van, or car for your next trip, VIP, or event.

Vehicle Reservations

You can drive or sit back and relax with a driver for your next on or off-campus destination. Vehicles accommodate seating from one to 44. 

Daily Reservations and Driver Services

  • Vehicle rentals for less than 14 days.*
  • Reservations made through the Fleet Vehicle Reservation Form
    • Requires spend authorization from your Financial Officer.
  • Add a driver to enhance your trip.

Note: Effective Monday, March 4, failure to pick up a Fleet vehicle on the rental day or to cancel at least one business day prior to the scheduled rental date will result in a $50 no-show fee being billed to the associated University department. This change is being enacted to encourage cancellations to be made in a timely manner and ensure Fleet vehicles are available to as many potential customers as possible.

Long-Term Reservations

  • Vehicle rentals for an extended period of time, typically by semester or fiscal year, but can be for as little as 14 days.
  • Requests made by emailing a completed Long-Term Vehicle Assignment Request (pdf) form to [email protected].
    • Emails from the Budget Executive and Financial Officer may be sent in lieu of obtaining signatures from them for the form. When doing so, the completed form should be emailed to Transportation Services by the Financial Officer.
