Rent Out Your Car for Extra Cash
Rent cars from your neighbors with Turo
Yesterday you planned the perfect vacation. Now your bags are packed, playlists are made, and your foot’s outside the door.
One problem: You don’t have a car.
Stepping in to fill that void is Turo, a new site that lets you rent your neighbor’s car right from his driveway.
Search for vehicles by type, distance from you or available amenities. Hourly or daily rates are available; in some cases you can even unlock the car and start your rental with a text message or via Turo’s mobile site.
Reviews from past renters act as endorsements for future renters, but the pièce de résistance is really the site’s million-dollar insurance policy. Whether you’re behind the wheel or the one loaning it, you’re covered.
So that convertible you’ve been eyeing in your neighbor’s driveway? It’s all yours.
