Cleaning fee reimbursement

Cleaning fee policy

If a rider left a mess and you are unable to continue driving because your vehicle requires professional cleaning, let us know. We can review the incident and, in some cases, may be able to charge the rider and reimburse you for the cost of cleaning.

When a cleaning fee is offered, both you and your rider are informed about how much the cleaning fee is.

To help assess a cleaning fee claim, you will need to provide:

• 2 different and clear photos of the mess
• A detailed receipt of the professional cleaning service done within 1 business day after the trip occurred
  
• Claim must be lodged within 3 days of the trip date

Please ensure the receipt includes the following information:

• The service provider’s name and contact details
• The date and time of the service
• A clear description of the cleaning services performed
• The total cost incurred

In case you are unable to provide a cleaning service receipt, you can opt to provide a tax invoice with the ABN instead.

Note that everyday items like rubbish, sand etc. should be expected as part of service delivery and will not be awarded a cleaning fee.

It is important to know that the cleaning fee paid will be judged on all information provided and will decide the most suitable fee according to our policy - this may be more/less than the cost of the professional cleaning you have received.

You can lodge your cleaning fee claim by answering the important questions in the form below.

We aim to provide a prompt response to all queries, typically within 24-48 hours of receipt. Please be aware that our response time may be affected by the volume of requests we’re currently processing.

Thank you for taking the time to report accurately and honestly on this incident. These kinds of reports enable us to be efficient in providing support.
