To list a vehicle on HyreCar, your car must meet specific criteria to ensure it is suitable and safe for renters. These requirements cover the vehicle's age, type, legal documentation, and overall condition.
HyreCar Vehicle Eligibility Criteria
Successfully listing your car depends on adhering to the following essential requirements:
| Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| Vehicle Type | Must be a 4-door vehicle. |
| Model Year | The vehicle must be 15 years old or newer. |
| Insurance | Requires current and valid personal insurance. |
| Registration | Must have current and valid vehicle registration. |
| Title Status | The vehicle must have a clean title; branded or washed titles do not qualify. |
| Physical Condition | The car must be free of cosmetic damage, missing pieces, or commercial branding. |
Understanding the Requirements
- Vehicle Type and Age: The restriction to 4-door vehicles ensures practicality and accessibility for various rental needs, while the 15-year age limit helps maintain a modern and reliable fleet.
- Documentation: Valid insurance and registration are critical for legal operation and liability, protecting both the owner and the renter. This ensures the vehicle complies with state laws and is properly documented for commercial use.
- Title Status: A "clean title" indicates that the vehicle has not been declared a total loss by an insurance company, salvaged, or rebuilt after significant damage. Titles that are branded (e.g., salvage, rebuilt, flood, lemon) or "washed" (where a branded title has been illegally cleaned) are explicitly not accepted, as they often signal underlying structural or safety issues.
- Physical Condition: The requirement for no cosmetic damage, missing pieces, or commercial branding ensures a professional and appealing appearance for renters. This also contributes to the safety and reliability of the vehicle, as extensive damage or missing parts could pose risks or indicate poor maintenance. Commercial branding would also diminish the general-purpose rental experience.
Meeting these stringent requirements helps ensure a high standard of quality and safety for all vehicles available through the platform. For more detailed information, you can refer to the official HyreCar support resources regarding vehicle listing eligibility.
