Car Rental FAQ for Denver Gig Drivers

Straight answers to everything you want to know before you rent a car for Uber, Lyft or delivery in Denver.

What does it cost to get started?

A $105.99 background check when you apply, then your first week plus a refundable deposit ($500 Caravan or Journey, $400 Tiguan) before pickup. Weekly rates are $325 to $395. Every payment runs securely through Square, so you always get a real receipt.

Do I need my own insurance?

Yes. Bring your own full coverage insurance. If you drive for Uber or Lyft, your policy needs a rideshare endorsement. No full coverage? Ask about our damage add-on, paid on top of rent.

Can I use it for Uber, Lyft, or delivery?

Yes, that's exactly what most of our drivers do. Just tell us your platform when you apply and we'll point you to the right vehicle. You're responsible for meeting each platform's own vehicle and driver requirements.

How fast can I get on the road?

Many approved drivers can get on the road within a few days, depending on vehicle availability, documentation, and deposit. Apply, get approved, sign, place the deposit, and you're driving.

Can I extend my rental?

Absolutely, as long as the vehicle's still available. Rent week to week, paid every Monday, one week ahead. These vehicles move fast, so if you already know you'll need it longer, it's worth booking ahead to hold it.

What if the vehicle needs maintenance?

Maintenance is included. Our mechanic checks oil, brakes and tires and comes to you, so you don't lose a shift.

What areas do you serve?

Serving Denver and surrounding areas. Pickup in Denver is free, or we deliver to you for $100.
