What Moves You?
Whether to improve our health, lower our cost of living, or reduce our impact on the environment, many Saskatonians are choosing active methods of transportation and public transit. There are some tasks, however, that require the convenience of driving.
The Saskatoon CarShare Co-operative (SCC) offers the freedom of vehicle access without the expense and hassle of car maintenance. Our fleet of vehicles includes both gas and electric options. We are also the first public CarShare in Canada with electric vehicles that are 100% solar-powered.
CarSharing is a cost-effective, convenient and sustainable alternative to private car ownership.

CarSharing is convenient, affordable, sustainable, and healthy.
