Car Share explained
“Using GoGet as a second car is so much cheaper. There’s always a GoGet available, even on short notice.”

The problem with second cars
There are two things you pay for when owning a car. Standing costs, and running costs.
Standing costs includes the price of a car, depreciation, interest, routine maintenance, insurance, and rego. Running costs include petrol, wear and tear, and tyres.
Second cars aren’t very efficient
Most get driven for less than an hour a day, but you’re still paying 24 hours worth of standing costs. Those costs add up to thousands of dollars a year!
GoGet is a smart replacement to a second car. It gives you more car, for much less.
What is GoGet?
GoGet is a car share network
Our members book a GoGet car by the hour of the day. They find cars near them, usually on a street or in a car park. They can also use vans, SUVs, convertibles, utes, and people movers.
Instead of paying thousands each year to own a car our members pay a monthly or annual membership and get access to cars. The hourly and daily rates can be found here.
Also, we pay for petrol
You’ll soon forget how much it costs, just like we have!

GoGet: Easier than a second car
A GoGet car can be anything you need at any time!
If you own a second car, a Corolla for example, it’s a one trick pony. It’s great at being a Corolla, but that’s it.
A GoGet car can be anything you need! A Hiace van, a Toyota yaris, a KIA Carnival people mover, an SUV, or a Hilux ute!
A GoGet membership is better than any car you could possibly own. It sounds crazy, but GoGet is both cheaper and more convenient than owning your own car.
Never visit a mechanic, never clean your car
GoGet saves you money, but GoGet also saves you time.
Petrol, rego, and insurance are all included. So no need to stress about your policy, or if you’re up for renewal.
You’ll also never have to visit the mechanic – we look after that. Our cars are newer than the average Aussie car and regularly serviced, with any mechanical issues fixed right away.

How GoGet offers more for less
So GoGet offers more cars, but at a cheaper price. How on earth could that be?
Here’s the short answer: Owning a second car is very inefficient. We all need transport, but second cars mostly sit unused. Yet they still cost a fortune!
Each GoGet, however, is shared by up to 30 people, who might only use it weekly monthly. Because we’re only paying for a single car, we can charge you a fraction of the cost.
It’s all part of our missions to make our cities better places, by making sustainability simple (and cheaper, and better).
