Turnaround blocks (Rideshare only)

Turnaround blocks

When a Rideshare-Only rental ends, a turnaround block of 24 hours is automatically applied to the car calendar. The car will not be available to rent until the turnaround block is removed.

This block will appear like any other availability block on the car's calendar. The turnaround block allows the owner time to inspect the car for damage, cleanliness, fuel, or to report any other trip issues. Uber Drivers that rent a Rideshare-Only car are able to rent, earn via Uber driving, and extend without the inconvenience of having another rental interrupting their trip.

How are Turnaround blocks removed?

There are two ways Turnaround blocks are removed:

1. Automatically after 24 hours.

2. Manually, in the app or through the Owner web dashboard.

How do Owners remove the block? (App)
