Welcome to the ANU Carpool Matching website - hosted by ShareMyCar.com

This site will assist you in searching for potential carpool companions by identifying other ANU staff and student carpoolers who live in your area. The system will also allow you to contact prospective carpool buddies via an automatic email messaging system if you would like to make arrangements to share a ride.

The site cannot give you any specific guidance on who to share rides with and the ANU recommends that you review the guidelines on how to ensure your personal safety and establish a successful and beneficial carpooling partnership.

What is carpooling?

Carpools consist of two or more people driving to or from ANU together in the one privately owned car. This allows the participants to share the costs of driving and parking, and reduces the greenhouse gas emissions and tailpipe pollutants from their daily commuting. It also provides another commuting option for those who don't own a car.

Who can carpool?

This carpool matching site is available to ANU staff and students. The site will allow you to link up and form carpool arrangements with other interested ANU commuters. To begin using the matching system, you must register using your staff or student email address.

Benefits of carpooling

• Save on commuting expenses
• Share the driving – sit back and relax when it's not your turn
• Less vehicles on campus = less hunting for parking spaces
• If you alternate vehicles, each car will experience less wear and tear
• Reducing greenhouse gas emissions and local traffic congestion
• It's a great way to meet people – it's nice to have someone to chat to when you're stuck at a red light!
