A method for charging a plurality of motor vehicles, in particular hybrid electric/electric vehicles, at a plurality of public charging stations, having the steps of: determining release times at which the respective charging stations are released for charging; determining arrival times at which the respective motor vehicles can arrive at the respective charging stations; calculating intervals of time between the respective determined release times and the respective determined arrival times as required waiting times for charging the respective motor vehicles at the respective charging stations; deciding, on the basis of the calculated waiting times, which of the charging stations will be approached by the respective motor vehicles for charging, with the proviso that an actual total waiting time, which forms a sum of actual waiting times for charging the respective motor vehicles at the respective charging stations, is minimized.
