Assist with car share dropoffs and pickups
Jobs
Austin TX
Description
I'm renting out a late model car via a car sharing platform, but I'll have to travel out-of-state in the middle of this week and will be gone for about two weeks. So I'm looking for someone to help me drop off and pickup the vehicle, which is domiciled in South Austin off of Oltorf St. Basically, you will need to come to my car at the agreed upon times (presently there are 3 customer pickups and 2 drop-offs scheduled for the time I'll be away, but that number may change based on what the market needs). Before pickup you'll have to spray down some surfaces with my disinfectant and maybe wipe some stuff down (I have both in the trunk), take 5 photos of the car (front, rear, driver's side, passenger's side, and the dashboard with the engine running) and send them to me, document the mileage on the odometer and the fuel level (to the nearest 1/8), look at the renter’s license and make sure their birthdate matches what I say it is (and alert me if it looks suspicious, like say a teen girl using her grandmother’s license - in cases of dishonesty like that I can legally refuse the sale and most likely will), and hand them the keys if all is well. For drop off, you’ll have to take the renter’s keys, get the mileage and the fuel level, and report any new damage if you see it. That’s more or less it. I plan on paying $10 per transaction (if I refuse someone service at drop off, which hasn't happened yet, it’s still a transaction and they get paid as agreed), so as things stand now, you’re looking to earn $40-$50 when I’m away. Could be more, could be less if something gets canceled. But I’ll pay on the same day via Paypal or Zelle. My business hours are from 7am to 10pm daily, although if you’re willing to work ungodly hours, I can adjust the numbers. If you do the job well, you have a great chance for “repeat business” and once I’m ready to hire someone full time, you’ll get first dibs. For this particular gig, a driver's license is not required, though I will ask for a photo ID for security purposes. When I'm ready to hire full-time, a license will be helpful and will open certain doors, but not required by any means.
