Turo Hosts: Becoming a Turo Host in NSW — Starter Guide

Updated 4 Oct 2025 · NSW context

Why it matters

This guide is written for drivers and hosts in New South Wales. It blends hands‑on experience from Sydney operations with platform best practices so you can book, pick up, and return with confidence.

In NSW, expect a mix of motorway tolls (M1, M2, M4, M5, M7) and airport precinct nuances at SYD. Plan for photo-based check‑ins, licence verification, and clear messaging so hosts can approve you fast.

Key takeaways

• Bring a valid licence and follow the selfie prompts to speed up verification.
• Best practice is to read the listing thoroughly, follow the photo checklist, arrive on time, and return the car at the same fuel or charge level. Keep receipts for tolls and parking.
• Message your host early with flight numbers or delays; clarity prevents surprises.
