Coastal Carolina University has minimal number of 12 passenger vans in the motor pool for short-distance travel and/or short-term use only. We have a contract with Enterprise Rent-a-Car to provide vehicles for use by departments making requests to Coastal's Transportation Services Department which could not be filled from the motor pool. Motor pool vehicles are assigned on a first come, first served basis with additional reservation requests being filled with Enterprise vehicles. It is important to reserve vehicles as soon as the need arises. This is accomplished by completing a "Vehicle Reservation Request" form. This form must show the fund and activity number to be charged, be signed by the Cost Center Director, and be sent to Transportation Services. Upon receipt, a vehicle will be scheduled. Vehicles are issued only when a properly completed form has been received. Therefore, it is recommended that the request be hand-delivered to Transportation Services if there is insufficient time for delivery by campus mail.
All Enterprise drivers must be 21 years of age and have a driving record on file at the Transportation Services Department. It is possible to obtain a driving record through www.scdmvonline.com.
Only the drivers listed on the Enterprise contract or the motor pool reservation form prior to pick-up of the vehicle are permitted to drive. Additional drivers can be added before the vehicle leaves the motor pool area if needed.
