Hey, friends from Bellingham, WA! We are stoked to announce the launch of our electric car share program at Stateside, located in downtown Bellingham. This area offers picturesque views of Bellingham Bay, adding to the charm of the neighborhood. This is a big step towards sustainable and affordable transportation for students. Residents can now book the Nissan Leaf by the hour or day through the Envoy Mobility app. As with all Envoy electric cars, we include insurance and maintenance plus free charging for drivers at their own electric car charging stations. So, students will not have to pay for a car payment, insurance payment, maintenance payment, or gas for their car. This will help them with tuition, books, activity fees, and all the other costs that come with going to college. Stateside residents will also feel good knowing their electric car is good for the environment and will keep the air clean in their great state of Washington.
Benefits of Electric Car Sharing for College Students
Electric car sharing benefits at Stateside:
- Cost Savings: Students can use the electric cars for free, no car payment, insurance payment, maintenance payment or gas, eliminating the financial burden of full-time car ownership.
- Environmental Impact: Zero emissions, good for the environment and the community’s carbon footprint.
- Convenience: EVs on site for students to use for trips to the doctor, grocery shopping, work, and school.
This program is particularly beneficial for college students, providing reliable and affordable transportation options tailored to their needs, promoting a sustainable and efficient mode of transportation within the city, student housing communities and university campuses.
Stateside’s Sustainability Efforts
Stateside Bellingham student apartments loved the Envoy electric car so much they included it in their Winter Road Trip Giveaway. Every resident got one raffle ticket and could earn extra tickets for every ride they booked in their Envoy electric car in December. As part of their lease-up campaign the prize package was valued at $1,000 and was won by one lucky resident. Guess it worked because they are now fully leased through Fall 2022! Excellent job Stateside! Their sustainability efforts also reflect a people-centric approach, prioritizing the needs and experiences of the residents.
One-of-a-Kind Living
This gorgeous modern property was designed by award-winning architecture firm Mithun so Stateside Bellingham student apartments are like no other off-campus apartments near WWU. Stateside offers four bedrooms and cozy studios that provide a fully furnished living experience in a student-friendly environment. Eco-friendly, imaginative, and people-centric, Stateside is the perfect fit for those looking for housing minutes from Western Washington University. With modern kitchens featuring stone countertops and luxe wood-style flooring, Stateside apartments boast quality features that enhance the student living experience. Stateside invites you to experience one-of-a-kind living with everything you need within minutes — class, shopping, hiking, dining, and more are all easier to get to know that students have Envoy’s electric car share on site, providing convenient access to essential services and amenities!
