Similar story here, I got rid of my car a few years ago after not using it for a few years and only pushing it around when the street was closed for cleaning. Later I realized that with so little use, it would've been cheaper to use taxis than paying insurance for the car. :-) These days our city is full of carsharing cars so should I ever need a car to carry something heavier, I only need to walk a few blocks to find the nearest car that I can borrow. Costs about a half of what I'd pay for a taxi, so it's not cheap, but still cheaper than owning a car and not using it.
