Enterprise offers university employees discounted rates on commercial vehicle rentals for UC San Diego travel.
1. Review rental guidelines.
The Enterprise Truck Rental Program is available to all UC affiliates, and includes the following vehicle types:
- Light and medium duty trucks
- Cargo vans, box trucks and flatbeds
- Heavy duty pickup trucks with towing
View the University of California rate sheet.
Discounts and insurance are included. Note that the truck rental program is for organizational use only, no student or personal use is allowable.
If a traveler is unfamiliar with the location of travel, an expense for hand-held or uninstalled GPS may be eligible for reimbursement. This must be documented in the Notes field on the Ground Tab in Concur.
To contain expenses, return the rental vehicle with specified amount of gas in the tank so that refueling by the agency is not required. If necessary, an expense for refueling may be eligible for reimbursement when using a rental agency with a UC agreement. Not to exceed $1.50 per gallon plus the location’s average retail gas price per gallon at the time of rental.
Note: Rental vehicle information is kept up to date in the Connexxus portal. Please refer to Concur's Company Notes, Connexxus Resources, for more information on insurance, rates, and agency-specific details.
