- What will the total charge be if I reserve a vehicle? The total charges for reserving a vehicle can vary depending on the amount of mileage you use and whether or not you reserve a driver. We use a third party staffing agency to reserve drivers. They perform their own invoicing and will invoice your department directly. We will chargeback for mileage. See the brief overview below of our mileage charges.
- Van. We charge $100 minimum per day. These rates are subject to change without notice.
- Car. We charge $100 minimum per day. These rates are subject to change without notice.
- How do I reserve a vehicle? Please see our online to request the vehicle you are needing and the details of your trip.
- Can I drive the vehicle? If you are reserving a car or van, yes, you or someone in your department may drive the vehicle. If you have never driven a University vehicle, you must go through a short registration process that we will walk you through when picking up the keys to the vehicle. If you are needing a bus, you will need to request a driver with a CDL license (see more details below in Can a driver be provided for my reservation?).
- Can a driver be provided for my reservation? We go through Dynamic Staffing, a third-party staffing agency, to request all of our drivers. If you are requesting a bus, you must request a driver through Dynamic for CDL license purposes. To request a driver, please fill out the Dynamic Staffing Personnel Request Form and send the completed form to ksharpston@dynamicstaffing.org. They can also be reached via phone if you would like to inquire with further questions at (256)383-5798.
- Where and When do I pick up keys? Facilities hours of operation are 8:00 am to 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday. You may pick up your keys at East Campus, Facilities Building (1660 Tune Ave) in the front office. We will give you your keys, a form to notate the starting and ending mileage, and a gate card.
- Where and when do I pick up the vehicle? Like keys, vehicle pick up and return is at East Campus, Facilities Building (1660 Tune Ave). Vehicles can be picked within or outside office hours depending on the time of your reservation. All vehicles are located in the back parking lot of Facilities through the access gate.
- Do I have access to the Facilities gate? You will receive a gate card when picking up your keys.
- How do I pick up or return the vehicle during office hours? If you are picking up the vehicle during our office hours, the gate to the back parking lot should be open for you to pick up your vehicle. When picking up, simply drive through the open gate, park your personal vehicle, and exit with the vehicle you reserved. When returning, drive through the open gate, park your reserved vehicle, and exit with your personal vehicle. If the gate happens to be closed, please use the gate card keys to open the gate.
- What if I need to pick up or return the vehicle after hours? You will receive a gate card when you pick up your keys that will give you access to the gate at the back parking lot of Facilities where our vehicles are located. If our gate is closed when picking up the vehicle, use the card to open the gate, park your personal vehicle, and exit with the Facilities vehicle. If our gate is closed upon return of the vehicle, use the card to open the gate, park the Facilities vehicle, and exit the lot with your personal vehicle. For details regarding key return please see How do I return my keys? in the next bullet point below.
Please note: You must park your personal vehicle in the back parking lot during pick up so that you can exit the lot after return of the vehicle you reserved. If you do not have a vehicle to exit with, the gate will not open for you.
- How do I return my keys? There is a drop box on the bus barn (the building to your left when you first come through the gate) next to bus bay 36. That is where you will return your keys and mileage form.
- Do I need to worry about fueling up the vehicle? All vehicles should come with a full tank of gas when you pick up. If your trip requires a higher mileage, we will supply you with a credit card for gas in case you are needing more fuel during your reservation.
Please note: If you do use a gas card, you must provide the receipt when returning the vehicle. You can place the receipt in the pouch that comes with the key set before putting them in the drop box
