Rental Vehicle Requests

Requesting a Vehicle

Facilities and Planning reserves the right to limit or deny use of any state vehicle due to a report of improper and/or reckless operation of a state vehicle.

In order to rent a vehicle, a vehicle request form must be filled out and submitted to the Facilities and Planning Service Center at least one week prior to departure. You may call ahead to ensure vehicle availability, but vehicles can only be reserved with a completed vehicle request form.

The vehicle request form can be submitted through fax (395-2502) or mail.

Charges & Violations

The operator of a State vehicle is personally responsible for payment of any traffic violations, E-Z Pass violations and/or damage caused to the vehicle by careless and/or reckless driving while in possession of a State vehicle.

The University enforces cleaning of debris from the vehicle before returning. A cleaning charge will be added if the operator returns the vehicle in improper condition. In addition to a cleaning charge, repeat offenders risk losing their department’s rental privileges.

Reimbursement

Vehicle related purchases are to be submitted through the driver’s travel reimbursement process and will be reimbursed by Facilities.
