As of July 23, 2019, you can park an actively rented car sharing vehicle at a parking meter without cost for up to two hours.
As of September 12, 2019, Evo Car Share has an agreement in place with the City to allow its members to end their one-way car-sharing trips in metered parking spaces. As part of this agreement, Evo is covering the full cost of using the metered parking.
Car-sharing
Need a car, but don't want to own one? Join a car-sharing organization to gain access to hundreds of vehicles that you can rent by the minute, hour, or day. Save the expense of owning and maintaining your own vehicle, including the gas and maintenance costs.
Vehicles are conveniently located throughout Vancouver and the Lower Mainland region, and can be reserved online, by smartphone app, or over the phone.
Car-share parking
Car-sharing perks extend to parking, too. Shared cars, trucks, and vans have dedicated parking spaces in private parking lots and on City streets. City bylaws also allow shared vehicles to park in "resident only" and "no parking except with permit" areas.
Additionally, car-sharing organizations may allow rental sessions to end at other types of parking regulations (e.g. "two hour parking"), however, it is the responsibility of the car-sharing organization, and their members, to ensure that the regulations are followed.
