Motor Fleet Vehicles

The N.C. Motor Fleet Management Division provides passenger vehicles to state agencies for employees in the performance of their duties. Fleet Services serves as the University liaison with Motor Fleet Management and provides administrative support for vehicles assigned to the University and its staff.

Facilities Management maintains a small fleet of vehicles for official business transportation needs of the campus community.

IMPORTANT: All drivers must have a valid U.S. driver’s license on file with the Motor Fleet Representative. Van drivers must have a Van Certification which can be obtained through the Risk Management Office. Also, be sure to cancel your reservation at least 24 hours prior to your scheduled pick-up time to avoid a one-day minimum charge.

To make a vehicle reservation:

Go to FM 311
Make sure you are logged in using your NinerNET account (the same login as your email)
Select "Vehicle Request" complete and submit a motor fleet reservation request form.

The Pre-authorization checklist, accident procedures, and current rates are available within the list of tasks.
Vehicle Requests are sent to the Financial Account Manager in your department. They will receive an email asking them to put in the accounting information and approve the request.
The request then comes to the Motor Fleet desk.

You will receive an email when the request has been approved or denied.
