First part-time job for immigrants: Hertz rents cars to work at Uber

by Milena Sarukhanyan on Feb. 20, 2024, 11:08 a.m.

Many immigrants to the United States find it difficult to find work at first. You can make some money with Uber while you're looking for something serious. But for this you need a car, and not everyone has the money for it, and not a single bank will give a loan to newcomers in the USA without a job and a credit history. Uber and car rental company Hertz have entered into a partnership to solve this problem. Now you can work for Uber using a car rented from Hertz.

How does the program work?

To rent a car from Hertz to drive for Uber, you first need to create an account on the Uber app or website and indicate that you want a car when you sign up. You will then have the opportunity to select a rental car on the Hertz website and schedule an appointment at your nearest Hertz office.


IMPORTANT: You must request to rent a car for a minimum of 7 days if you intend to use it to work for Uber.

Then head to the Hertz pickup location on the date and time of your choice. You can pay your rent using a credit or debit card. Rental rates for this program start at $214 per week

The minimum period for booking a car is 7 days. You will be able to automatically renew your rental every seven days, but only three times. Every 28 days, the vehicle must be returned to the Hertz rental location where you rented it for an assessment of its condition and a new 28-day contract.

Cost of renting a car from Hertz for Uber
Hertz base weekly rental rate is $214 per week. This does not include taxes, fees, gasoline and other additional expenses.
