Vehicles include: an all-wheel drive Ford Escape, a 12-passenger Sprinter van, a 12-passenger Chevy van, and a Ford F-250 Truck. Heavy trailers should be towed with the truck only. Drivers pulling trailers must receive advance approval.
Reservations for fleet vehicles are available on a “first-come, first-serve” basis and are limited to the vehicles available. If a fleet vehicle is not available, consider reserving a vehicle from Enterprise rental (see link from OSU's travel partner website). COCC vans are not available for rent.
Each fleet vehicle that is available for general use has a unique calendar in Microsoft Outlook, which shows the availability of the vehicle during a given time and on a given day. You must reserve the vehicle through Outlook and only OSU-Cascades employees have access to the calendars; students must work though a member of the faculty or staff to reserve an OSU-Cascades fleet vehicle.
When reserving your vehicle, we recommend building in a “grace-period”, in case there is unanticipated traffic or a meeting runs long. Vehicles can be scheduled back-to-back; therefore, if your trip ends at 2:00 PM, it is very likely someone else will need to use the vehicle starting at 2:00 PM. Drivers that delay subsequent reservations will be assessed a late fee.
Prior to driving an OSU-Cascades Fleet vehicle, you must complete the necessary Online Driver Authorization Form.
If you wish to drive the van, you must complete Van Safety Training.
Please return signed and completed forms and/or a copy of your van test results to Casey Bergh.

If the vehicle you need is not available, contact us via email for assistance.
Vehicle Rates and Fees
A vehicle usage form is provided in all fleet vehicles and must be completed at the end of each reservation. The form facilitates tracking of mileage for billing purposes, scheduling routine maintenance, and estimating needs for fleet expansion. Departments with dedicated vehicles will be responsible to return the completed form to the business office monthly.
Fleet usage rates will vary based on type of vehicle. For a trip with a duration of 6 hours or less, the user will be charged an hourly rate or mileage (whichever is greater). For trips in excess of that duration, a daily rate and per-mile rate will apply.
