How it works
Commonwheels provides cars, which can be accessed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
You can book a car over the phone or through our website, for a minimum of half an hour up to however long you need it. If you’re on a journey and need the car for longer than expected, simply contact us (one button push and we’ll call you on the vehicle’s built-in hands-free phone) and if the car's available, we'll extend your booking.
Membership is free!
As a member of Commonwheels, you only pay for what you use. Each time you drive the car, you pay an hourly rate for the duration of the trip, and a small mileage fee. This covers everything, so you need never worry about fuel, insurance, MOTs, tax or maintenance costs again!
