Turo with delivery option enabled. Getaround for contactless delivery. Uber or Lyft to get home after deliveries.
Offer airport or hotel delivery for your Turo rentals and charge a $30-60 delivery fee on top of the daily rate. Travelers arriving at airports love the convenience of having a car waiting for them instead of waiting in rental car lines. Coordinate flights with the renter, park the car in short-term or economy parking, and leave the keys in a lockbox. This premium service can add $300-600 per month to your earnings with just a few deliveries per week.
🚀 First Step
Research your local airport's short-term parking rates and policies for leaving vehicles for customer pickup.
  • Send the renter a photo of exactly where the car is parked with surrounding landmarks — navigating airport parking garages is stressful
  • Time your delivery to arrive 15 minutes after the flight lands — renters hate waiting but also hate feeling rushed
  • Charge $40-60 for airport delivery and $25-35 for hotel delivery — the convenience premium is well worth it for most travelers
