F&S will implement new Car Pool rental rates in January.

Effective Tuesday, September 1, 2026, F&S Transportation will implement new Car Pool rental rates. Because of significant auto industry cost escalations and higher fleet maintenance expenses, rates will be adjusted by about 22 percent. The updated information for specific car, truck, and van types is available on the F&S website.

This rate change is necessary to maintain quality service for over 200 vehicles and enable more than 5,000 trips annually. Wholesale fuel price variations will continue to be offset through a surcharge. The surcharge, currently seven cents per mile, will be reviewed monthly and revised as needed, including decreasing the amount if prices drop.

Thanks for your continued support of the Car Pool. F&S is committed to providing superior customer service and competitive pricing to meet your travel needs for university business. For questions or assistance, contact Neil Franzen, 217-333-2890.
