Turo is an app for both iPhones and Androids that customers and download and use to rent a car for a particular period of time.   With more and more people working from home now, car owners began to realize that they could make money with a car that otherwise would be just sitting idle.

With Turo, car owners can list their car three different ways to make money:

  • The car can be picked up at the person’s work or residence.
  • The car can be delivered to the airport and then picked up there.

  • Renters are provided with a cancellation policy based on how long they were planning on booking the car.

What Things Do Car Owners Need to Do to Get Their Car Ready for Rental?

  • Download the app or at least sign up on the web.

No, renters could be in any area. However, the higher the population or Tourist activity of your area, the higher the demand for Turo Car Renters.

What Is the Major Concern of Both the Car Owners and the Car Renters?

Obviously, safety is a major concern.  Yelp had a few interesting reviews for the San Francisco area.  It received a 4 out of 5 star rating for both car owners and car renters.  The biggest complaint was not being able to reach customer service with a question via phone or email.

    Hi Leisa,

    I’ve seen this on a news report…the people had some really nice cars, like BMW’s and Lexus’. While the concept sounds good, I would still be squeamish to rent out my car, especially a luxury one like a BMW. 🙂

    Thanks for this great review. I’m passing this along to share this idea with others. Have a great one.

    Cori

      @Corina – Thank you as well for passing the article along. Personally, I think I too would be a little hesitant to rent out a really nice one. However, I guess to each his/her own which is why this can work for the right person.

      I will say this whole concept of renting in out your car and transporting riders (Lyft, Sidecar, Uber) makes you wonder what new challenges auto insurance companies may looking at.
