Frequently Asked Questions

Q. How often are customers allowed to have the vehicle cleaned and charge it to the Voyager card?

A. This depends on whether it is a GSA vehicle or NASA-owned vehicle. For GSA vehicles, standard policy (unwritten) is to obtain a basic car wash ($10 limit) no more than twice monthly using the Voyager Card. For NASA-owned vehicles, the Transportation Officer can establish standards depending on local environmental conditions and needs. A standard maximum of twice monthly is suggested.
