Manage multiple rental cars, cleanings and handoffs

Hold time between trips

Set a turnaround gap in hours for your whole account, or a different gap for one car. A new booking cannot start or end inside that gap, whether a renter books on your site or your team adds the booking. The gap reserves time on the calendar. It does not book a cleaner.

You can also set a minimum notice before pickup. It applies to bookings renters make on your site, so your team can still add a walk-in. Both settings start at zero until you change them.

See what each pickup still needs

Your dashboard lists confirmed pickups for the next 7 days and counts the ones with something still open. Booking requests you have not accepted yet have their own list.

Each booking shows a short checklist: payment, security deposit, rental agreement, driver's license, insurance and the pickup inspection. It is a checklist for you and your team. It does not assign tasks to people.

Photos at pickup and return

Record the odometer, fuel level, notes and photos when a car goes out and when it comes back. The renter can add their own photos to the same record from a link, and both of you see the same timestamped record.

Block a car for cleaning or service

Log a cleaning, detail, repair or service on a car, with the date, cost and notes. You can block those dates so the car cannot be booked while it is out. Each entry is one you add. It is not a repeating schedule, and it does not send anyone to do the work.

Set rates by date

Each car has a default daily rate. For a busy weekend, a holiday or a local event, add a different nightly rate for a date range on that car. The booking quote uses the right rate for each night. If two date ranges overlap, the one you added last wins.

These are rates you set by hand, one car and one date range at a time. Rentovation does not change prices on its own, and there is no repeating rule such as every weekend. If you rent to gig drivers, an optional weekly program adds weekly prices per car. It is off unless it is turned on.

If you also list on Turo

For cars linked to a Turo listing, Rentovation reminds you to block, move or remove dates on Turo when a direct booking is made, changed or cancelled. You make the change on Turo yourself. Turo trips can reach your Rentovation calendar through one-way email forwarding. Nothing is sent back to Turo.

What you still arrange

• People: who cleans, who delivers and who meets each renter, and when.
• Keys and the handoff itself.
• Tolls and tickets. The starting agreement template makes the renter responsible for tolls, tickets and fines, and you can record toll costs in each car's books. Rentovation does not import toll bills, match them to trips or charge renters for them.
• Your prices. Rentovation does not set or suggest rates.
