If you've had any experience with car-sharing before, you'll be familiar with map constraints. Each provider calls it something slightly different, but at SHARE NOW we're talking about the Home Area. This border, that surrounds the city limits, acts as an operational zone for our free-floating cars. It's where you'll find all available cars to rent as well as where you can drop them off. However, there are ways to break free from this zone. Here's how to think outside the Home Area and unlock the true potential of car-sharing.
Home Areas are a natural and necessary part of the free-floating car-sharing model. Unlike traditional car rental services, which have fixed rental stations for pick-up and drop-off, the free-floating approach gives drivers the chance to jump in a car (almost) anywhere. Naturally, operating a free-floating car-sharing service across an entire country would be impossible, and thus the concept of a Home Area was born. That said, it's important not to think of these borders as driving boundaries - not at all!
The borders you see on the map are only for starting and ending your trip – where you go in between is completely up to you! Drive across Storebæltsbroen and enjoy a weekend at Vestkysten, go for a day trip to Southern Zealand, or drive across Øresundsbroen to Sweden and spend some time off. Venturing outside of the urban area to explore is both easy and budget friendly through hourly rates, daily rates and special offers.
