All about office car pooling for workers in Glasgow

Car pooling is the process of sharing an employee's car by going in pairs with another colleague who travels the same way to work and splitting the cost of paying for petrol with some colleagues even sharing the vehicle as well.

Not only does sharing a car between two or more save money, but say you commute to Glasgow then it might just save you a lot of money too. What better reason to get into a car pool scheme?

Not convinced? Well here is a list of benefits, thanks to officespacefinders.com.

1) Check with your local council to see if they have any initiatives for car poolers. You could get your hands on a private car to commute to and from work with a colleague and take pressure off the Glasgow bus system. You may not even have to spend the whole journey to Glasgow with a travel buddy as if you pick up your car pooling friend on the way which means for some people it will hardly be any extra effort. This makes it win-win scenario for both driver and passenger!

2) Other means of giving car pooling a whirl include checking out Glasgow car pooling sites which is free to use and could turn out a match instantly without waiting for Glasgow newspaper adverts to be processed. If your Glasgow office seems keen to join in on the scheme it may be of use to chat to your management staff who might be able to supply funding or incentives thus making it easy to get your car pooling idea off the ground.
3) Firstly, to get your car share started you'll have to decide upon the details for your car journey and what route to Glasgow you'll need to go via to get your passenger so you're not driving unreasonable amounts more. This is important, as cutting back on fuel is the goal so ensure that you select the quickest Glasgow route there is and plot your journey well in advance double-checking where exactly your colleague would like to be collected.

4) When relocating our office a few years ago to serviced offices Glasgow that was found on officespacefinders.com senior management decided to initiate a company-wide scheme of car pooling so that the commute to work would be made easier. It saved the colleagues in my workforce plenty of money that, otherwise, would have gone on Glasgow transport such as buses or taxis were it not for our management's attempts to make car pooling a habit - enabling colleagues to mix outside of work.

5) If you get bitten by the car sharing bug and want to do more and you need to drive quite a way to Glasgow you may like to invite those who do not work with you to join in and they would only have to fork out for their part of the trip. Safety and security are the most important aspects and you must be cautious when inviting strangers into your vehicle - why not get a friend, relative or colleague to come with you when you meet your new car sharer for the first time.

So if you want to do your bit for Mother Nature and you'd like to cut down your rising petrol bills as well as doing a favour for your fellow workers then car pooling to Glasgow could well be your answer!
