What are the requirements for hiring a car?
+
To rent a car for Uber and Lyft services, you need to be at least 25 years old, hold a valid driver's license, and have a minimum of one to three years of driving experience. Both Uber and Lyft conduct background checks on drivers, which involve reviewing driving records and criminal histories. Additionally, rental programs may have their own screening processes. It's important to comply with these requirements and ensure you meet the specific criteria set by Uber, Lyft, or the rental program you choose.
How much does it cost to rent?
+
Lyft and Uber car rental services cost $260 per week before tax, but the total cost will vary depending on local taxes and how long you want to keep the car.
Which car is better to rent for work?
+
Uber Rent offers a wide range of vehicles so you're sure to find something to suit your needs. From compact cars like the Ford Fiesta to luxury options like the BMW 3 Series and versatile SUVs like the Jeep Compass or Kia Soul, we have a wide range to suit all tastes. Similarly, the Lyft service offers a range of car models to suit your preferences.
Is it possible to rent a car without needing to pay a deposit?

Are there any obligations regarding the duration of active service when renting a car for ridesharing?

Rideshare drivers have the freedom to set their own schedules and decide how long they use the car for driving. The rental period is flexible and based on individual preferences, whether you choose to drive part-time or full-time. Meanwhile, Lyft requires a minimum of 20 weekly trips for rental vehicles.

How much can i earn while working in rideshare companies?
+
Driving with Lyft is an excellent opportunity to earn money. When passengers complete their ride, they conveniently pay through the Lyft app. Drivers receive a portion of the ride fees from passengers, and their earnings are automatically deposited into their accounts weekly.
Earnings depend on how many hours you work, what city you are in, and what hours you work. During peak hours, it is possible to get bonuses. On average, drivers can earn from 2 000 dollars, working for 1 service.
