Three providers are active in The Hague: Greenwheels, MyWheels and SIXT share. With SIXT you park anywhere within the permitted area of the city at the end of your trip, rather than at a fixed spot, so there is no need to return it.

At almost 6,900 inhabitants per square kilometre, The Hague is the most densely populated of the four big cities, and room for a private car is scarce. Households average 0.7 cars, well below the national average. For anyone who needs a car only now and then, sharing saves not just money but the hunt for a space.
A shared car is a car you rent by the hour or the day, parked close to where you live. You do not need to own a car, and you pay only for the time and distance you drive. Getting started takes two steps.
You register once online with your driving licence and payment details. Many providers approve you quickly, though some verify manually. Allow a few minutes to one working day before your account is active.
Once your account is ready, you reserve a car through the app and unlock it with your phone. Pick the car up at the agreed location and return it after your trip. More details are in the guide to your first trip.
Greenwheels uses fixed parking spots. MyWheels uses fixed spots for some cars and zones for others, which can vary even within one town; you return the car to the spot or zone where you picked it up. SIXT share has no fixed spots or zones. You take a car wherever one is free and leave it anywhere within the service area, the part of the city where you are allowed to park a SIXT car. So there is no need to bring it back to where you picked it up. Check the provider app for cars available near your postcode.
The Hague's centre and parts of surrounding neighbourhoods have paid parking zones and a resident permit system. A shared car needs no parking permit of its own: parking costs are already included in the provider's rate.
No permit to apply for, no space to search for. With a shared car, the parking spot is part of the deal.
For occasional shorter trips of a few hours, a free subscription is usually the most economical choice. Drive more often or longer distances, and a monthly subscription can pay for itself quickly. The comparator calculates it precisely for your usage.
