For inter-city travel: MirrorTrip is a one way car rental solution that matches you with people driving in the opposite direction - turning one-way trips into a round trip so that you don't have to pay drop-off fees. Ever noticed how the one-way drop-off fees levied by rental companies can be hundreds, sometimes even thousands of dollars? MirrorTrip solves this problem by finding other people to create a round trip with. We are currently serving some cities in the USA and Canada.
